Destination Britain HELP!!!

[dweomeroflight]

Ok so i'm going on exchange for 6 months to Britain on uni exchange (at last my anglophile dream comes true) and I've started making a list of cool places I want to go, but I was thinking I should throw it out to lj to ask people for ideas, because more heads is better than one. I love history and the english literature of Britain so suggest whatever you want :)

This is my list so far... some things I admit, are embarassingly nerdy ;)

Places to Go

- Stonehenge/Avesbury stone monument
- Buckingham Palace
- Parliament House
- London open decked bus tour
- West End plays (fingers crossed for a famous person being on stage when I go)
- Belsize Park
- The London Eye?
- Madame Tausaud's
- Tintagel Castle, Cornwell
- Where they filmed LOM/A2A Manchester
- Glastonbury Tor (coz its an Arthurian site supposedly :P)
- The Lake District
- Agatha Christie Museum Torquay (nerdy I know)
- Shakespeare play perfomed in a castle :P
- The Beatles Abbey Road/Museum/Liverpool
- London Tower
- Notting Hill/Portobello Rd?
- Edingburgh Castle, Scotland
- Hadrian's Wall
- Giant's causeway
- Bath
- The Globe Theatre?

Any suggestions are much appreciated :)

rofl sure will :) I really want John Simm to be on the West End when I'm there :) Him or HBC, but JS is far more likely

any ideas?

If you get see John Simm I will be so jealous. I would so ask you to get his signature for me but doubt you can get that close.

If you have the chance just go walking everywhere. Bookstores are the best. Savor every moment you have there

man I'm like the biggest anglophile out of everyone I know :P trust me, I'll be savouring the moment.

I get the feeling that when I get off the plane I'll go giddy from excitement. bdw I don't go till July next year, I'm just planning ahead :P
