    Well, if you fancy a game while you're here, I can take you to my club on Sunday morning for a 3 hour session. It's in central London.

    Scotland is too far man...!

    I may not be able to play any badminton game as i will not be bringing my badminton gears. Most likely can meet up for a drink and get to know sessions in London.

    Ah, think the games there are gonna be that easy, eh:D? BTW, some clubs won't allow anything other than indoor court shoes on the courts. You might wanna prepare for that possibility.

    It's not that bad here in London, a bit wet and windy but nothing that you couldn't handle, hope you enjoy your stay in the best city in the World.

    Hi Gerry

    Is that just your sentiment, or is it a slogan you've heard? I've heard a similar slogan!

    Enjoy your visit, Ants - what do you want to do while you are here? Maybe we can give you some recommendations.
