Check list for London

Check list:
Vaccinations: Check: Just got my Tet -d on last Friday. (Free)
Train tickets: Check (85,-)
Flight and accommodation: Check (231,-)
Hotel in Vantaa: Check (50,50,-)
Passport: Check
Gatwick to Hotel: Half check as I have checked the trains but not have bought the tickets as it can be done at the airport.
Currency: To do at Jumbo Forex on 18th. (I've used all from my stash)

So this few day trip to London is about as expensive as trip to Bulgaria or Turkey. So far the total is about 370 euros and we still need to add the train/bus to the hotel in London. That is about 50 euros (return ticket) added to that. So rounding up the whole thing is about 420 euros. This is mainly because we have to travel from Kemi. It adds to the cost about 100 euros. Oh, I forgot that we are going to try and get a bed for the return trip (in the train) so it will be about 30-50 euros more. 

So far my credit card has not suffered from this trip, meaning I have paid it off so I can use it when in London. Also my savings (for moving to Canada mainly or moving to another country secondly or generally moving southern Finland) is untouched. I do have some money coming to me from a loan I made and from my old boss for going to dogsit his old dogs. Also the earnings-related (ansiosidonnainen) money is coming before the trip, so I will be okey. 

As I have applied for work in UK as well, I am considering this trip as a possible interview trip as well if I get a call. If I do not get a call I will not take my certificates with me, but if I do then I am carrying them around. So far no contact from Canada, US or UK (nor from Finland).
