Nothing, it's all beautiful, stay well clear of Manchester or Birmingham, and Leeds, Bradford, Huddersfield, Hull, Liverpool (you'll notice they all have one thing in common :p)
And if I remember, you'll be in Royal Holloway right? In which case you're in the best bit of Engurland anyway.
Finally, as you're a girl, don't under any circumstances get sent to Coventry ;)

Pikeys - Gypsy travellers. They will try and sell u dodgy things ie. watches and aftershaves and if u say no, they can get a bit agressive. One of them chased me in my car for a bit when I refused to buy perfume from him :eek:

Best advice I've heard in a long while.
The North is great for occasional visits to see the sites, just avoid the people.
The South is where life is.
Oh yea, if you come to London, here's another list of places to avoid. Brixton, Most places south of the river unless they're Richmond, Hackney (to generalise, anywhere East of the Tower of London is a no-go). Stick to the West and the North, but avoid Southall as well.
I hope I've managed to offend as many people as possible, but it's the sad truth :p

lol sorry, what was the question?
All the cities I mentioned are dumps, and up North.
The South is expensive, but still worth it!
One thing you should do when you get here, get yourself a decent group of friends (don't have to tell you this - preferably a few from London), and make sure you organise day trips, say once a month to nearby places - outside London. It'll help clear the mind during term time.
Trips to London are easy, Egham (where Royal Holloway is) is a 30 minute train ride straight into Central London.
You can reach most places in Southern England, from Royal Holloway, in a day trip with plenty of time for sight seeing.
And I don't think the Coventry comment needs an explanation...

Actually, they didn't plan on taking London Bridge. The American geezer actually wanted to take Tower Bridge, but he mistakenly thought it was called London Bridge and went and bought that instead for a couple of million dollars(which was on sale).
The Brits where only too happy to sell them a crap bridge designed by a 5 year old, which they then went and rebuilt in Arizona.
:smack: silly Americans... (or so the story goes)

Surrey is only 2% Asian, so Woking is VERY unlikely to be a place with majority Asians.

It was indeed! well very close by. The seed of freedom in the Western World, at least, was sown there!
Also, there have been settlements in and around Egham since 800BC, so the place is littered with relics. Well, if you can find them...first thing you should do when you get here, get an ordnance survey map of the area!
Oh, have a look through this http://ww2.runnymede.gov.uk/leisure/tourism/accom/Runnymede_Visitors_Guide.pdf
Give you an idea of what to look forward to!
As an aside, Abdulah, Woking has the highest percentage of ethnic minorities in the whole of Surrey (close to 10%)...not that that had anything to do with my comment!
