London, England is a beautiful place. It is quite expensive, but the place is wonderful;. Did you know that our money in London is worth less, if you give them $100 in us money, you will get $5o in British dollars. So if you go to London look for things to be very exspenive there.

There is no such thing as 'British dollars'. Our currency is the British pound and the reason you don't get many in exchange for your US dollars is because of its strength on the currency markets. So don't go around asking for 'British dollars'..

That's just the exchange rate. $100 (US) is the equivalent of about £50 (GBP). It's not that things are more expensive in London. It is a pricey city, because it's a capital city, but generally, you'll find that something that would cost you $20, will cost about £10 in the UK. Also, our tax is included in the price you see on the label, there's nothing extra to pay on it.
