Hi

I'll be in the UK for three weeks and will have a "free" week
between 13th and 20th of May. I will most probably be around
the London area and maybe spend a day or two in Southampton.

If someone wants to meet for a beer or cup of hot chocolate,
or knows of time-nutty things to do, please let me know.

I would also appreciate if someone knows an affordable place
to stay at in London, so that it doesn't strain the purse
of this poor student too much.

Not exactly "TN" material, but you'd find this an interesting day out.

https://www.bletchleypark.org.uk/

Get an off peak return rail ticket from Euston to Bletchley, it's a
short walk from the rail station.

The National museum of computing (and other special interests) are there
too.

Else the various museums in London will more than keep you occupied!

Regards.

Dave B, not that far from BP, but no idea what I'll be doing the time
you plan to be in the UK. "Domestic Management" has not told me the
plans for that far ahead yet!  :)

Yes, Bletchley is a good day out but be aware the national museum of
computing is a separate entity and has its own entry fee.

Seconded.  Did both last August and it was great.  The amount of restored hardware that's operational is impressive and docents are knowledgeable.
If you get to the computing museum, having a chat with whoever is in the Colossus gallery is worth your time.

Admission to BP is £17.75 and the Computing Museum is £7.50.  Both are well worth the admission price plus the train ride.

Cheers,
John
