MindyQ: Legal minefield? Maybe I'll just stick to London. I am going to Europe in the summer with my girlfriend. We are going to London OR Paris. I speak pretty good French (sort of). We can only afford one city and we choose whichever one that our dollar goes the furthest in. I know France uses Euros. Does England use Euros or are they still using the pound?

*pry for strong dollar by the summer*
London and the whole of the UK uses the pound, its a wonderful city, incredibly cosmopolitan, but like all cities has its bad areas, historically its oozing with great places to visit. But, its also very expensive. More than anywhere else in England. And most people there speak English to some degree!!!!!! And has the best night life in Europe or so I have been told.
Paris is a beautiful city, but for me, I have to say that I was not that impressed, historically it has some beautiful buildings not least the Eiffel Tower, as long as your good with heights lol. Language can be a problem, Parisian's tend to expect you to speak French and can be a little condescending unless your fluent. Night life can be fun, but quite expensive.
