Unknown Circumstances

Every time that I go on vacation, whether it be to the next state, or even to a wonderful place like Austria, I find myself appreciating life a whole bunch more afterwards. I do not know why this occurs only on vacations, as I do try to take time to appreciate the small things on a daily basis.

Hoping to Return.

Being the second largest island in the Mediterranean sea, Sardinia has recently become a destination that many have flocked to. It is perhaps one of the most picturesque places that you will ever visit, as the beaches are something to be admired, the water is as clear as anywhere else that I have ever been, and the locals are some of the most welcoming people you will ever have the chance to meet. While some may say that Sardinia is somewhat out of the way, you can rest assure that any effort that is put in to reaching this destination will be rewarded exponentially. Although I have previously stated that many are flocking to this new destination, you will never feel overcrowded. There is so much to do that you will never have a moment of boredom. I speak out of experience on this matter, as I have been there several times in the past 3 years. There is nowhere else that I would rather spend a month of my time at than Sardinia.

Top Tips For Taking A Holiday In The United Kingdom

If you are planning a trip to the United Kingdom, then here are my top tips for how to enjoy your time in this exceptional nation:

1. Go and watch some Premiership football. The United Kingdom is a football crazy nation and what better way to enjoy your time in this country then attempting to understand the national obsession? If you are in London then I would suggest that you get tickets for an Arsenal game. This is because the Gunners play a unique brand of passing, attacking football yet their tickets are still reasonably priced, unlike Chelsea or Tottenham Hotspur. If you are further north then I would suggest heading for Manchester to watch a match either at Old Trafford or at the Stadium of Manchester. At the former ground you can watch Sir Alex Ferguson’s charges as they continue to attempt to defend their Premier League crown, while at the latter ground you can watch City where Roberto Mancini is attempting to wrestle it from them.

Visiting Britain With Children

               The question of where to go on holiday in the United Kingdom is purely dependent on whether you have children with you or not. If you do then you are going to need to go somewhere where there are facilities for their entertainment, so I would suggest either going to a theme park or to the beach. One of the great things about going to a theme park is that you can stay in a hotel that is within the grounds of the park itself, so if you have young children with you, you can be sure that they will always be safe and you will be within easy walking distance of all the park’s attractions. The best options are probably Alton Towers or Thorpe Park as these are the ones with the best roller coasters and slides. You can also save money by buying the hotel room and the entrance fee to the park at the same time in a bundle, just google ‘Thorpe Park hotel’ and you will see what I mean.
        If you want to take the kids to the beach, then head towards the south-west if you are after quiet coves and boutique bed and breakfasts. There are also lots of National Trust walks that will guide you through stunning scenery and along cliff-top paths. But if you want to combine both the beach and the theme park, then the place for you is Blackpool Pleasure Beach. Here you will find the winning combination of a sandy beach as well as roller coasters and other theme park attractions combined in the one place. It is also possible to save money on your hotel in Blackpool by having a look online, just google ‘Blackpool pleasure beach hotels’ and you will find a myriad of options.

The Zoas Live in Aberdeen

Ok, so it’s not every day that you read about a concert from the point of view of one of the band members. My band The Zoas have only been playing a couple of years, but recently we have been hitting the road hard and have been touring round Europe playing in every venue from the dingiest bar cellars, to audiences of a few hundred. It has been a great experience so far, but the one gig that will stay with me the longest is the time we played at Aberdeen.

The GoMA is a perfect example and extension of this modernism in action.

Wembley Stadium the best place for English football


Officially known as the old Empire Stadium before, Wembley stadium was renovated and re-designed as well. It housed some wonderful matches during its free quarters of a century. But it was really old and not so attractive as it is now.
Now we can call the stadium a magnificent experience, for its attractive construction and details, which absolutely create its image as one of the best European Stadiums.
Wembley stadium is the second largest ground in the entire Europe. The first place is held by Barcelona's Nou Camp. The seats at Wembley are undercover and there is enough space for your legs, so that you don't need to keep your knees touching your nose all game long.
When it comes to the toilets in the venue, we can say that even some five star hotels, don't provide such impressive facilities. It gives you pleasure even to go and see them.
This building is really impressive and interesting to be visited. Wembley housed many great concerts and sporting events. It is a perfect place to watch a football match, especially for the football fans.

Feel like at home

One amazing journey could always can have happy end, if there is a good place to stay. In order to get one, its not very easy to book hotels, which brand name is very targeting or popular. People always prefer to be on location, where they can feel like at home. Many places could generate such emotions, but only a few can give to the people 100% satisfaction. In matter of facts its important for every hotel to prefer reasonable services for the prices that people are able to pay. With no regret, I can say that there are still places trying to robbery every person there.
This is not concerning about the London at all. Its not good for the image to have a poor quality  hotels requiring double price only about the name of London or just the area. That is why many “London hotels could be easily reached only for a few clicks if you are international foreigners or just  simple call for the domestic one. This city is good, because it had the idea to transfer the old city architecture inside the rooms and into the whole hotel interior. During the night the view is fascinating, people what people first see is the building at all.
One place in West London is enough charming with its ability to attract people to join the fan group. Waldorf Hotel is the crown in this area and its always come  up with innovative ideas and solutions about how to entertain their guests during every second.

Living in London

There are cities than can be really expensive for a people decide to move there to live and work. One of these cities is London. The English capital, is putting a high standard of living cost and for some persons this could be a nightmare. London is not only a shining place, where everything will go in the best way for you, because in  order to get a good money you need to pay for good living and good taxes.  There is nothing free on this world and London is a perfect example of this. I’m saying this, because of total average annual salary of 78,000 pounds, you cannot expect to have less apartment rent than 300 pounds per month. Of course, it depends in which suburb are you going to live. Some people prefer to stay in a hotel, while they are finding a good flat. The options are not many, concerning the higher standard in London. 
Another issue, transportation could be a nightmare also. In order to get a car there is not cheap also, because of the many taxes that you must pay. Also, insurances are very expensive and most of the people cannot afford to share money for this. To take a cab is not the best solution, because they are also very expensive. London is big city and you might get in a traffic any time. Despite, this awful statistic to find a good accommodation could one happy news for everyone, not only tourist. There is a big variety of London hotels where you can find a good place for you, while you are there. One of the best hotels in London is Waldorf hotel, but if you want to book a room there, you better do that a month earlier. 

To reach distance countries is not a problem any more for London call services

When the time has come and people need a good call service, they are always sceptic about what they are going to expect. Some of them are ready to pay high taxes in order just to make simple phone call to some faraway place. Well, sometimes this is not necessary, because the purpose of such services is to give to client’s excellent amenities, not to robbery them. If you are in such business you can easily manipulate call rates, among the competition, because people like when there are choices to be choose from. 
In order to stay on track London is making a huge effort in the lower based telecommunicating services, offering amazing packets to places like India, Pakistan, China and Australia. Those countries are making effort in their economic development and in this case the interest from the local companies or independent entrepreneurs is on demand. This is a great opportunity to connect with these countries without even be there. The usage of cheap international calls has one big advantage - it’s cheap and fast.  For example, to call India the price is 0.20 pounds per minute, which for the London standard of living is nothing. Of course the competition is something scarce and sometimes you can discover fake call companies trying to steal your money for low quality services. If you area in London looking for such providers choose this one, which is not obligating you with additional documentation and holding voice operator, because in most of the cases people piss off. This is also important for London hotels finding. As a tourist, first you will make several phone calls in order check the best of the hotels- Waldorf London.

Tower Bridge

United Kingdom could be a good place for discovering, despite the bad weather almost the whole. This is not stopping people to walk deeper in this island and discover parts of the mighty British Empire challenging the world for a long period of time. With no doubt, London is the most popular and preferable place for visitation from all tourist. Expect, the Buckingham Palace and Big Ben, there is one more amazing architecture being so attraction with its vision – Tower Bridge. As every other place, this one also has interesting facts about it and I will mention some of them above.
Tower Bridges has been build over the extremely 42 meters above Thames River
The view from Tower Bridge is amazing. You can easily discover St Paul’s Cathedral, Canary Wharf, Maritime Greenwich
Its establish in the late 18st ( 1894 )
In order to have such massive construction over 11,000 tons of steels was used for the Towers and Walkways 
To use this bridge, its requiring pumping engines, accumulators and boilers, which are now parts of the Tower Bridge Exhibition. 
The Queen has also mess up here, with the decoration which was made the Bridge in red, white and blue for the Queen’s Silver Jubilee celebration. 
As an architecture Tower Bridge is has a total length of 244m and its longer 61m.

These are only a few interesting facts about Tower Bridge, which can be observed perfectly from the London hotels. Sometimes to book a room in  London Waldorf hotel with its amazing view could be a difficult task, because  its not available to book a room there, but if you have a good luck and try to so a month earlier, you can manage it.

Pugin designed the building in Gothic style. Parliamentary tradition is steeped in pomp, which is better expressed from the fact that The Queen rides in her State coach to Westminster to open each new season of Parliament. This happens usually in the mid of November.
In summer time it gets congested with tourists and traffic completing to cross Parliament square. But actually only during the summer it is open for visitors. Tours inside the building take about 75 minutes.
Another attraction in London, that deserves to be visited instead of spending the time you have at the room of one of the hotels in London, is Tower Bridge. It is one of the most famous London attractions and it is over a hundred years old. It takes only 90 seconds for the bascules to be raised with electric motors.
And of course we cant skip mentioning the Buckingham Palace. It is also popularly knowns as “ Buck House”. The palace has been used as the Monarch's permanent London residence, since the accession of Queen Victoria. It has been established in 1702 as the Duke of Buckingham's city residence and has been sold by the Duke's son to George III in 1762. in the late of 1820 the Palace has been refurbished for the Prince Regent.

In this way, you support the community, because most of them go for insurances, health care system and many other facilities, which are making London more sustainable and good for living. In order to be more understandable for my audience, I will make a simple calculation of how much you are going to pay for a certain amount of your annual salary.
In London you have two level of taxes, giving you exact information how much you give to the city municipality.
its 20% up to 36,000 pounds annual gross income
40% over 36,00 pounds.

For example you earn 50,000 pounds. There is simple equation, which will calculate in the best way for you how much you are going to give for a taxes during the whole year. First of all, every citizens have a personal allowance of 5, 435pounds. So, the formula is simple: 20% * (36,000) + 40% * (50,000 - 36,000 - 5,435)= £10,626.
Basically, one fifth of your annual salary will go for a taxes. People which works in London hotels are paying less, because of their salary amount. In order to be competitive on the market, all hotels in London are always hiring knowledgeable and skilful staff, because the money must be deserved.

For those that are keen on curry should drop in at the Cinnamon Club or Moti Mahal. If you want to try Korean food, there is a British home restaurant in Cah Chi. There is a special place for the vegetarians, called Momo.

Some of the London Attractions


Whether you are planning a luxurious holiday or active break, a trip to London will be amazing and and funny. The second important thing after the London attractions is to get familiar with the offers that hotels in London provide, during the tourist season. You can check this in the Internet, or call to a local tourist agency or to the London hotels that you would choose for your accommodation. If you are planning to spend your vacation during the tourist season then you should do your research a month or even two months earlier, so that you can book a room a month earlier.
Some of the most famous attractions in London are the London Eye, Buckingham palace, British Museum, The Tower of London, Trafalgar Square and others.
The London Eye or known also as Millennium Wheel is a must visit spot and it has a capacity of 10 000 visitors a day. It is located in central London, just on the banks of the river Thames. The best thing you can do to avoid crowds is to book your ticket a month earlier.
Buckingham Palace is one of the places that gives you the opportunity to capture some of the royalty of London. The place is an official residence of the Queen of England. Its state rooms are opened during the months of August and September.
The British Museum is full of treasures, many of them did bring by British soldiers from off- shores. It is established in 1753 and it houses over that 7 million artefacts which resemble the human history and the interesting thing is that it cannot be defined anywhere else in the world but here in the British capital.
The Tower of London is a marvelous castle and it is located on the North Banks of River Thames. It is built in 1708 and it carries a name of the White tower. In the past the castle was used as a prison, where the royal prisoners were locked. The tower also has been a place for executions and torture and after that it has been used as a zoo, an observatory and for many more purposes.
And the last offer of ours is the Trafalgar Square. It is one of the most visited attractions by tourists and it is situated in central London, England. In the early years it was named as King William the Forth's Square. It was built as a symbol of victory for British naval over Napoleonic wars.  

Pubs in London

London is a big city and have a great number of historical pubs and buildings, set up throughout the centre, which start from the East End alleyways to Oxford Circus. There are also so many good ale houses that you can visit in a single day only.
The first one is called Old Cheshire Cheese. Inside the Old Cheshire Cheese is like walking through the wardrobe into Narnia. It is really easy to get lost in this dimly lit, low level maze of various rooms and restaurants. The cosy open fire greets visitors into a room that has been host in the past to the likes of Charles Dickens and Samuel Johnson. You can find this place on Wine Office Court near Fleet Street, nearest tube Blackfriars. It is open Monday- Saturday from 11:30 to 23:00 and Sunday from 12:00 to 15:00.
The Black Friar is famous for the statue of a laughing monk that hangs above the main door. This bizarre Victoorian building, built next to the site of a 13th century Dominican Priory is host to an even more elaborate interior, decorated with illustrations and bronze relieves of monks. It is open from Monday to Saturday in the period between 11:30 and 23:00 o'clock and Sunday from 12:00 to 22:30, nearest tube Blackfriars.
Seven Stars is one of the buildings that have survived the Great Fire of London. It is a surreal narrow little bar and usually filled with lawyers and the likes. The cooked food there is as good as pub food can possibly get. It is open from Monday to Saturday 11:30- 23:00, located on Carey Street near Lincoln's Inn fields nearest tube Holborn.
Instead of spending the night in the room of one of the London hotels, you better go out for a drink. Actually hotels in London provide bars and restaurants, but nothing compares with traditional historic pubs outside in London city.
