#267508 - 18/10/2005 12:13 Me going to the UK from Oct. 28 to Nov. 3
speedy67 enthusiast Registered: 18/12/2000 Posts: 342 Loc: South-West-Germany	I'll stay mainly in Beckenham/London, but want to visit Cambridge, Empeg Towers and RobS, who has hardware for me. Can anybody give me a hint for a good bed&breakfast in Cambridge and Beckenham, or tell me what i should see there? I have no plan, cause i'm going with my gf, who will visit friends in Beckenham. We fly to Luton with Easyjet, so im bound to public transport. Any advices are welcome... @schofiel: Did you get my PM? @the empeg guys: when will be the best time for a visit? cheers, Thomas

I originate from that part of the world. From Charing Cross to Kings Cross, where you pick up the train for Cambridge, is a direct tube connection on the Northern Line. You may well be better staying in London, but I did find these: http://www.hotels.uk.com/beckenham.htm _________________________ Politics and Ideology: Not my bag

A guest house is more or less a small hotel http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guest_house (some guest houses and many B&Bs don't allow you to stay in the building during the day, unlike a hotel) _________________________ Remind me to change my signature to something more interesting someday
