You can get some humidity and pollen is highest, between June and August for hayfever suffers. You can also get rain in between, April and September.

Britain’s currency is the pound sterling (£), which is divided into 100 pence (p).
Scotland has its own pound sterling notes. These represent the same value as an English note and can be used elsewhere in Britain. The Scottish £1 note is not accepted outside Scotland.

Passport And Visas Requirements To Enter The UK
Please note: Following the recent referendum vote for the UK to leave the European Union (EU), there are currently no changes in the way people travel to Britain. The following guidelines still apply:
If you're planning an adventure to the UK, depending on your nationality and your reason for visiting, you may need to organise a visa.
If you're an American, Canadian or Australian tourist, you'll be able to travel visa-free throughout the UK, providing you have a valid passport and your reason for visiting meets the immigration rules (link is external).
Citizens from some South American and Caribbean countries as well as Japan are also able to travel visa-free around the UK.
European Union citizens, non-EU member states of the EEA (Norway, Liechtenstein and Iceland), Switzerland, and members of the Overseas Countries and Territories (OCT) do not need a visa to enter the UK.
If you have any further visa questions visit the official UK government website.
Anyone that has any questions, please feel free the comment below and I will answer them for you.
You can dial 999 to reach either the police, fire and ambulance departments.

BL's Bali Blast Off Aftermovie
We recently wrapped a wildly successful international inauguration of Hurley BL’s Bali Blast Off presented by the Perfect Wave. The event, designed and organised by 1988 World Surfing Champion Barton Lynch, was for 8-14 y.o. boys and girls looking to test their skills on the international stage within the team building world of BL's coaching.
The event was a huge success, all 5 days of action offering an array of surfing and activities. Bingin was our home for the week and Huey blessed us with perfect swell that really tested the kids skills.
