What do I need when I travel from South Africa to United Kingdom?

I'm travelling to the UK on my own (from South Africa) & I want to know what I need to take with me & what do I need to know before I leave home.

passport, clothes, money

Passport, airplane ticket, credit card & cash.

passport, plane ticket, cash/travel cheques, credit card, relevant clothes for the weather, relevant/useful phone numbers, prescription medication/prescription if you use any, good common sense and sense of humour

Reservations. Your passport. Your luggage. Traveler checks or money to use once you get to the UK (South African money probably not accepted). Ask your travel agent. They probably have information and details about this. You may also need an international driver's license, depending on your age.

do NOT forget your head. it is very important to see that all the screws are properly securing the head to the body.
