Studying Abroad in London

[south carmain]

that's way too far for me to travel just to see a store lol will probably cost you 20£ in total just to travel there and back

pick pocketing is probably more common in central london, to be fair pick pocketing is something common in tourist areas all over Europe, but you would probably have more chances of it happening to you in southern European states

I wouldn't mind doing it, hell I'll be there for 4 months, might as well see as much as I can. I'm trying to save money too so would you maybe recommend cheap restaurants or places to buy ingredients so I can make my own food?

[south carmain]

if you plan on eating out often then I would recommend getting a taste card (you can get it on sale for 30£ it lasts a year) which allows you to get a 50% discount at loads of restaurants, if you like turkish food you should visit Stoke newington, you can get the 73 from victoria and reasonably priced good turkish food, as for saving money on food just go to the local supermarket (sainsburys, tesco, asda, morrisons) but make sure to go to the big ones, the small tescos and sainsburys are ridiculously overpriced, also look out for deals there, there is always a lot of items on discount at any given time and they change frequently which means if you don't mind not eating the same thing all the time you can get good discounts, avoid cheap deep fried chicken places and chippies unless if you want to die of a heart attack before the age of 30 lol I don't know about the states but in London I'm not even sure they use chicken to make that shit

[Yokosuka Martian]

I question the origin of many of the foods on my plate at fast food joints. The exchange rate from US dollars to pounds is pretty bad so ill take the ominous chicken any day

[Yokosuka Martian]

Ooooo here's another question. Any places around London that might sell used games, maybe particularly the Shenmue 2 European version?

[south carmain]

well it's about 2.50£ for a standard Chicken/fries/drink menu, but you would be better off buying the ingredients and cooking at home, if you eat at home you can survive on 20£ a week (for the standard meals) or 30£ if you want snacks, fizzy drinks etc by shopping carefully

Ooooo here's another question. Any places around London that might sell used games, maybe particularly the Shenmue 2 European version?

you would be better off looking on ebay.co.uk, you could search charity shops just in case but a lot of the retro stores have closed, you can easily find a place that sells used games but they sell anything that came out before the ps2 unfortunately

[Who Really Cares?]

I'm gonna mug you.


Just kidding

[Spokane]

Just kidding

He is just kidding, he's really going to rape you.

[Who Really Cares?]

Dude..SPOILERS!!!

[Yokosuka Martian]

lmao, well i'll be sure not to run into you guys then. Or If I do, I'll ask you if you know where I can find some sailors.

That could be a code word for Dojo meetups in the future..

[Yokosuka Martian]

Sounds like a nice meetup at the pub. Maybe Have you see a black car would be more appropriate.

[south carmain]

you would recognise me before I even say it because I'll be smiling like a prat all chuffed with what i'm about to say

[Crimson Ryan]

Aslong as we aren't all wearing Shenmue hoodies from Insert Coin it's fine by me..

[Yokosuka Martian]

That or I will actually thing you're gonna mug/rape me, or both. I really want to get that shenmue hoodie. but i might order it when im over there, mainly cause i wont have to wait as long. Easily spot me among the crowd
