Which is your favourite place to visit in Britain?
I lot of people blow the whistle on me about their most desired places to visit abroad, however where in Great Britain is your favourite place to visit?
We have almost the whole In every way in miniature in the British Isles so, apart from searing heat and the ultimate in cold, we have so much choice.
My favourite parts of the Boonies (sorry - plural) are the extremes of Great Britain - Scotland and Cornwall (including the Isles of Scilly).
My favourite Holiday-maker Attraction is the Telford area and "Ironbridge" in particular. Blists Hill Living Museum is a momentous place to take the family for a day out and on a lovely warm day a great place for a picnic. Ditto the Black Country Living Museum in Dudley - kindest fish and chips for miles around!
About how many tourists visit britain every year?
I trouble to do my homework on Britain and the qestion says how many people does britain attract each year?
Which would be more fulfilling, to visit Ireland and work in Britain, or to visit Britain and work in Ireland?
I am planning a working recess and am having difficulty deciding on the country to arrange my visa for.
If you bring about your visa it is mostly the case of take anything you can get, most people do not qualify for a working holiday visa in either country.
But if you can get working holiday visa for both countries, England is rather cool hit by the financial crisis at the moment. And the unemployment rate was already higher.
But both countries have a lot to offer for tourists, it does not categorically matter which one you work and which you only visit.
You should also spend time as tourist in the country you work.
What documents do I really need to visit Britain?
The Profoundly Office says that students should have 'a letter from your school or college stating which course you are on, its start and finish dates and the dates of the feast period during which you intend to visit the United Kingdom.' Well, I'm actually skipping school, so I can't get that. I'm a young male who's present to be traveling alone, which I realize is the most suspicious thing to be.
But would it be enough just to bring my passport, some bank statements, a student ID be honest, etc.?

There are certainly trains to Bath and Southampton, but without doing further fact-finding I cannot tell you if there are trains to the other places mentioned. It is doubtful though you may be able to get buses or coaches there from a larger town in the acreage.
