Luggage And Bags: Trolly bags are a good idea. Avoid the rush hour when you are going to the airport. If you have a back pack TAKE IT OFF YOU BACK WHEN YOU ARE IN THE TUBE!!! The only people that keep them on tend to be newly arrived antipodeans. Its considered very rude and selfish but it's also dangerous as you whack the people behind you when you turn around.
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: You shouldn't need me to tell you but most people forget to bring their umbrella. Yes it will rain but there is no reason why it should spoil your visit.
Toiletries & Medical Supplies: Bring stuff with you, don't count on buying it in London as it will cos tyou twice as much.
Photo Equipment: Don't come to the UK to buy electronic equipment. Its not that cheap and the warranty might not be valid when you get home. Bring video cams and cameras with you.
Camping/Beach/Outdoor Gear: Camping is quite popular in the UK but you need a car to get to campsites and you need to be prepared for the rain.
