London as capital city of England, is one of the most popular and visited cities anywhere in the world. With many people taking London breaks for several days at any one time, there are just as many people who only have sufficient time to spend one day in London, because they are visiting because of work or are on route to another town or city, for example.
Being such a popular city, it can be difficult to arrange what to do for a full day, for the simple fact that there are so many different sights and attractions to take in. (more…)

In 1900, motoring was a luxury hobby in Britain, and there were only 8,000 cars in the whole of Britain at the start of the 20th century; but by the end of the century the car population had soared to 21 million. The number of cars on the roads began to rise during the 1920s as manufacturers started to make small, lightweight and cheaper vehicles for a wider market. Cars at this time were still relatively expensive. The Austin Nippy, was at the top of the Austin 7 sports car range and cost £152 – about £8,500 in today’s money.
The boom in car ownership occurred in the 1950s and 60s. Car ownership in London quadrupled between 1950 and 1970 as standards of living rose and car prices fell. By the mid-1960s, there were 1.5 million cars registered in London and the numbers continued to rise until the end of the century when 2.2 million cars were registered at London addresses. (more…)

How remarkable the price to stay in a hotel in London. As a major city in the UK there are lots of hotels available though, and you don’t always have to pay top price for them. All it takes is a little knowledge and some advance planning to get some better deals.
Here are five ways you can cut costs when you are looking for cheap hotels in London.
1.Look further out from the centre of London. It’s tempting to stay right in the heart of the city when you come up to London. But that isn’t where you are likely to find the cheap hotels in London. Instead try looking on the outskirts. You will still be close to the city but you will leave the more expensive post codes behind. This should reduce the room rate and you will still be able to reach all the locations you want to see easily by public transport. (more…)
