Glad you enjoyed the UK tour, and I've learned at least a couple of
things from it - that the interior of Gringotts is Australia House - I
wonder how they got permission to film in there!
I thought that "Glory" concoction, a old-fashioned name we seldom see
these days - all sorts of icecream and various sweet extras all piled
up into a glass - was actually American, so it was a surprise that you
found it was a native UK product!
The countries that use the euro aren't any cheaper than the UK, so I
don't know why you found the pound/dollar rate more expensive.
Those glass structures are called, pretentiously, "conservatories",
they are often tacked on to cheap houses in a row as well as to
expensive detached houses, and they're very much a sign of the
nerdiness that characterises the Dursleys - they don't cost all that
much either!
We're English by the way, not British!
I hope everyone will come over and take the tour - you'll be made very
welcome.
