I'm going to UK next week f or a visit...
By starry_eyed •
... is it better to buy UK pounds here before going there, or bring US dollars and just have it exchanged when I get there?
... what's the weather there like? We're going there next week, and I've heard it's spring, but I also heard London's weather is gloomy all the time.
... do you know how long does it usually take to renew UK visa here? I heard 5 working days? Would you know if there is a rush service?
thanks in advance!
jezmir is right .........careful with swine flu...hv a nice journey
I would advise you to exchange pocket money from Doha (Souq waqif has some of them and banks do too) and use ATMs once you get in UK..
If you use underground tubes from Heathrow, be careful because there are professional thives who will stop you saying they lost thier wallet and they need some money so try to avoid those- better if you go with someone.
Whenever I am in rush, I explain this to clerks in visa section, they are always accomodating those requests but let them know your request is urgent to some extent.
I believe weather should be cool by now.
Don't TRAVEL... Itz Swine flue time there in UK...
Pls don't come back to QATAR without checking...
Letz LIVE in peace....
Hi Starry, you'll get the best rate if you just use your ATM card in the UK.
