Hey cocoasweet,

Thanks for the advice...it was helpful.

I do plan to stay with my cousin whom lives around London so I'm sure I'll be doing the 'spot the tourist' gig...lol. Just wondering when the Notting Hill carnival usually takes place? Is it towards the end of August? Also, what is the night life like...the last time I was there I did the travel with the parents and I was much younger as well.

Thanks,
Ceejay
