Well don't forget London is London, not very representative of the UK, but nevertheless leuk! Every Queen's Day there's a party on Trafalgar Square, and when you miss Dutch comforts you can go to the Dutch pub (De Hems) on the corner of the City's Chinatown for bitterballen! Not sure about Glasgow, but also a good number of Dutchies in Edinburgh.

Leuk, welke stad in GB? Je zult zeker betere Engels praten na een tijdje daar! Het maak' nie' uit als je vloeiend Nederlands spreekt, of geen woord ervan, helaas is Nederland voor Nederlanders door het Nederlands... maar er zijn wel goede dingen over dit land!.. Het is makkelijk om Nederlands te praten (maar er is vaak geen noodzaak), alleen maar moeilijk om vriendschappen te maken.
