Title: If I come to London, can I crash at your place?
Post by: Howard Alan Treesong on April 25, 2009, 05:11:34 AM: H.I.S. is selling Los Angeles<->London round trip tickets for $599 USD.

Holy fucking crap, that's cheap.

I've never been to London before. My work is light next month, I'm single and unattached, and I can totally afford it. I'm this close to just saying "fuck it" and planning a London vacation in two weeks.

Any EBers whose place I could crash at? Even if it's just for a night or two, the savings would push me over the edge to YES LONDON YES.

Anything I must do or see in London should I actually go through with this insane plan?

It's not as good if you just stroll around in an aimless touristy way. For instance, there are a lot of really good restaurants, but also an INCREDIBLE amount of shitty touristy ones.

Too bad me and Patel are mortal enemies though.

It's nothing like posting on internet forums. That's what true success is.

Upside: all my meals take place in company time, on the company credit card, leaving a huge budget for entertainment products.

I like where this is going

Yeah, I'm actually putting these plans on hold because a ban on US travel to the EU seems likely at this point. :/

And thanks for the informative post, GS. :) Sorry to hear about your academy getting shut down.
