Hi,

High End British food is underrated... but I can find very similar styles
at home... whereas I can only find pale imitations of the indian foods I
find in London.

You should try India then.

I find the English version of Indian food rather bland and tasteless these
days.

I've never found a hotel that really did it for me though... something was
always lacking... always something... price often really high for what you
got for a room... what often passes for an english breakfast these days
just doesn't do it for me... or location...

give me a clean room, decent bath/shower, with a lift, and something close
to the tube and a couple of good pubs... at a good price :-}

I can do this in Paris, Munich, Florence, Amsterdam.....

why not London?

Because London is not really designed around tourists.

It is both the capital and the major business centre.

It isn't particularly tourist friendly

Try going to Leeds/York and wandering around the museums there.

It's a lot cheaper, a lot cleaner and the people are friendlier.

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe.
Barbeques on fire by the chalets past the castle headland
I watched the gift shops glitter in the darkness off the Newborough gate
All these moments will be lost in time, like icecream on the beach
Time for tea.
