    I have never in my life been offered pig's feet or bone marrow - although steak and kidney pie you will certainly see. You should be able to get any type of food you want.

    What a smart lady you are - it is up to each of us to make our dreams come true. I hope you have the lovliest time. As I recall Harrod's is just vast.

    Be sure to see the food court.

    WONDERFUL!!!! I used Cosmos, which is a sister company to Globus, so you are really going to enjoy the tour; AND be very tired at the end of it, he he.

    I can't imagine what you are reading that has all those foods listed, unless it is " dishes strange and unique to England!" I enjoyed the Ploughman's lunch now and again: crusty bread, cheese and pickle (which is more like a relish, for us). You will not have any difficulty finding food you are used to.

    Stock up on camera batteries, and memory cards. (Back when I went, before digital cameras, I had to stock up on film!) Not because you can't get it there, you can. But who wants to waste time buying those things? I learned that on my first trip!

    I took a journal on all 3 of my trips, and I 'd write in it. What I ate, what I paid for it; what we saw, jokes the tour guide told. The tour guides were EXCELLENT, I must say. Told us highlights at each stop, what to expect, what to see, where to go for . . . just about anything any one asked for! If I took a photo of something that I thought I wouldn't know what it was, I'd jot that down, for reference.

    You are definitely hitting all the highlights on that tour, good choice!

    To "do" Harrods properly will take a whole day If you get the chance to do the London Eye then take it! A trip to Libertys is a must

    Be prepared to be shoved left, right and centre if you do the underground

    Lucky you!! We've been living in central London (Westend) during 4 months (in1981), so we had plenty of time to explore!! Don't forget to visit Madame Tussaud, Hyde Park, Leicester Square, etc . Oxford Street is great for shopping too, and it is cheaper than Harrods (which is very costly) .
    I miss you enormously Sydney, Maya, Inka & Zazou Be happy there at the Rainbow Bridge
