    Enjoying your videos. Your filming is outstanding and most professional. As a Yorkshireman I particularly enjoy those films. I'm 78 with health issues so can't do the things you do, even in Yorkshire, so enjoy them by proxy. Thanks, guys! Best wishes, JOE.

    Great video but I must point out a couple of mistakes. Firstly Greenwich is 0 degrees LONGITUDe, not latitude. Secondly, it was a big mistake walking past the Victoria and Albert museum, it is much betterthan the other 2 and less crowded.

    The key thing to remember about economising in any place is -
    Do you want to live like the locals and where the locals LIVE, or do you want to hang around the tourist areas where only tourists are STAYING ?
    Where people LIVE is an entirely different world to where people STAY.
    Our food prices are way, way different - they HAVE to be - we couldn't afford to live in a tourist zone on a daily basis, any more than you guys doing the same back home.!
    Then there's the question of accomodation, whether hotel or B&B - the same story again.
    Now that you've got the golden rule firmly established, you now can go ahead and do your on-line research for your trip.
    Voilá.

I did Yoga on the surf board by the Canary Wharf canal just outside our apartment building and they even had 1 hour free SUP for the residents and people working in Canary Wharf. It was really fun. Think my partner and I will probably be in London in Dec or Jan for the Devil wears Prada musical.

If we were living in London it would be a different story I wouldn't say it's value for money at all. I also think you can enjoy the city on a even tighter budget - it's all about how you enjoy spending time :)
