Museums and diversions near Hackney Central/Dalston, London
Hey there! I'm going to be staying in London for seven days at the end of the month—specifically in Central Hackney, and travelling to Dalston for a few of the days. To fill in the gaps where I don't have anything scheduled, my "plan" is to walk around randomly, in whatever direction, and poke my nose into whatever looks interesting. Please name some diversions within a three-mile-radius of Hackney/Dalston should aim for. I like fun things! [more inside]

is LHR > LGW for a morning flight, from covent garden-ish? w bonus qs.
If I'm at a tourist hotel, probably near Covent Garden (but possibly closer to like St Paul's?) and I need to catch a morning flight from LGW or LHR, is it worth the extra money to fly BA out of LHR rather than Easyjet or Wizz out of LGW?

Where can I join an evening zoom call in central Edinburgh?
I have to run an hour-long training session tomorrow from 17:30-18:30 UK time. Originally, I was going to do this from home, but since it was scheduled, I've been booked (by work) to go to Edinburgh. Is there anywhere within half an hour of Waverley Station where I could join a Zoom call for an hour, at this hour (17:30-18:30) specifically? [more inside]

Where to set up base for brief London visit?
turtlegirl and I are going to hike a section of the Cotswolds in June then visit with some friends (Hereford and Devon) before heading to London a few days before our flight home. We want to get a room somewhere which will allow us to get to Heathrow (relatively) easily, BUT we also want to be able to get into the city for a few meetups with London-based friends. [more inside]

Booking wants deposit. Card declined UK
I'm in the UK and I've booked a cheap hotel for a couple of nights in another UK city. I've paid the booking but the hotel wants a deposit and when I try to pay it my card gets declined. I've tried to email the hotel to ask about paying the deposit by cash on arrival but no response. I should be able to cancel the booking and try elsewhere but that might be more expensive by now. What should I do?

Suggestions for things to see/do - North section of Cotswold Way
We have booked a walking tour for the north section of the Cotswold Way in June (21-27) of this year.

We are looking for suggestions for things to see and do along the set route, especially in and around a few of the small villages where we will be staying. We will NOT have a car. More inside...
