Try this site. London is a fantastic city. It's vibrant, expensive, noisy, polluted but diverse. There are goods and bads with every city but I wouldn't live anywhere else. London is FAB!! |

Our weather is unpredictable, one day it can be really nice and sunny and the next it can be rainy! However it never gets really bad here, our weather usually stays mild throughout all seasons because of the gulf stream. So basically it is cold in winter but it does not go very extreme, it stays fairly mild because of the gulf stream. The weather in southern England is nicer than in northern England.
It snows sometimes but not very often!
There is loads to do in cities like London, etc. I think most areas here in England are nice with decent people but then there are some rougher areas, that aren't nice. But most people will be nice and friendly to you! |

What the hell? Are you American?
No where is "full" of thugs and lunatics. Have you not been to England?
You will love it here. Most people are friendly and polite. We do get snow most years in at least some part o the country.
You will love it here. |

at the moment its getting warm in here now,people are ok but sometimes u cant help it when some of them are mean or racist.about the houses it depends in which area ur going to stay,i can say its expensive to live in london so if u try to save some money better to stay in county side cuz its much more cheaper and quiet. |

England there is alot to do
Visit some of the big cities as well as
london- go on the eye amazing views on a clear day, the ebst way to see london is on a tour bus been on one of them some amazing views you have got, tower of london
Liverpool- and see the cavern where the beatles first started
Manchester- the home of Manchester United football club
the weather can be slightly up and down so make sure you bring various layers of clothing with you.
Remember a lot of us british are sarcastic, very quick in daily lives so dont expect to be bumped into, and some things are pricey
P.s if your staying in London the underground is full from 5pm -7pm be aware of that |

It's different everywhere you go. Some places are nasty, full of thugs and loonatics who are dangerous and nasty. However, there are some parts that are absolutely beautiful, and you can walk and walk in lovely open countryside and go horse riding and all sorts.
You should be polite when you move to England, and try to smile at people. Some nice ones will smile back, but some will ignore you. Don't bother with the ones who ingore, but the ones who smile back are ok to chat with if you're waiting for a bus or that sort of thing. Err... let's think.
Yeah, it mostly just depends on where you live, but watch the people around you and you'll soon learn about our society and what is ok. Good luck, I hope you have found a nice spot of England. |

depends what part of the country you are going to, but generally, expect it to be crowded, busy, people in a rush, a bit grey and dull, and if you are in a major city, expect it to be dirty and polluted. If you are out in the country, things will be a bit quieter, cleaner and less crowded
we only get snow between November-February, so there wont be any snow, unless we get a freak storm. The Weather has been quite nice at the moment, sunny and warm (but if your used to the weather in Dubai, it will be cold for you) but expect it to rain, a lot.
It's hard to know what stuff there will be for you to do, because you haven't said where you will be |

Expected a busy country! people always on the go, unfortunatly a lot of fat people and lack of tradition!! depends on where you live for what lifestyle you will have. |
