Taking my mum out to London in November to see the New Beautiful South for her B-day/Xmas pressie, and struggling for food and accomodation. Bought the tickets, they were £20 each (p+p £3 each). Thinking of a fun and relatively upmarket restaurant (not anything classy and candlelit, more themed or fun - but not naff) near Islington academy (Gig starts at 7:30 so need time to eat and then que). Also thinking of a small, friendly hotel, again close to Islington.
My total budget for the night is in the region of £200 - £250.
Again this is including the concert tickets, restaurant and hotel.
Mum has agreed to pay for travel and booze :)
Any advice?
Thanks xx
