| Zaitch,
The "bible" to read for these questions is .....
"The Jewish Travellers Guide"
... Never leave home without it :-) :-)
Unfortunately, my copy is a few thousand miles away :-(
If you don't want to stay in London for Shabbat, you can try going to
Bournemouth and staying at one of the Kosher Hotels there. It's a sort
of genteel English Catskills.
I'll be in ZKO next week for some meetings, so I'll give you a call
about some of the Kosher Hotels in the London area.
Regards,
..... Monty

1066.2 | What are your plans? | CPDW::SEIDMAN | Aaron Seidman | Fri May 03 1991 23:46 | 8 |

Monty,
When are you going to be in ZKO, and where are you staying? Maybe this
would be an occasion for a BAGELers get-together?

| Thanks, Monty, for .1 and for your phone call from ZKO.
Since then I have been invited to spend the shabbat with
the aunt and uncle of a friend of a friend -- in Edgeware
(spelling?). I may just do that to have some heimish
company... hotels on shabbat are really a drag, even
when they are kosher...
Any suggestions as to what is sight worthy in Edgeware ?
Is it within walking distance of anything worth seeing?

1066.4 | Very little to see .. its the subarbs | VAXUUM::SAGAL | I'd rather be TAVENG::MONTY | Thu May 09 1991 01:37 | 15 |
| Spelled *Edgware*
Sight(s) to see over Shabbat in Edgware:
Well ... the Edgware Synagogue (Orthodox) used to be the shul with the
largest seating capacity in England.
If that is not interesting enough you can walk down to the main road,
called the Great North Way, and watch the cars. Actually that road is
built on the original Roman Road. <end of very trivial pursuits>
I'l be in London this weekend, so I'll ask the experts.

1066.5 | Shops, houses, and not a lot else! | TAVIS::BARUCH | in the land of milk and honey | Fri May 10 1991 01:37 | 11 |
| Monty, careful what you say about Edgware! I have mishpucha there. In fact my
brother lives there, and he is a member of the same Edgware shul you just
mentioned. I had the pleasure to be called up there when I stayed with my
brother last November.
Watch your step when crossing the main road though. The modern chariots move
rather faster than the ones on the original Roman road! And it is no good
shouting "Shabbos" at them either!
Shalom
Baruch

| Monty,
What sort of job do you have that enables you to travel back and forth
across The Pond? As an Ex-Brit living in the US, I'd love to know how
to get the Company to pay my way for me from time to time!!!
Shalom,
Judy
