This in answer to a moderators forum, which I am not sure if this is the appropreiate place to post this. I was in Moscow on holiday for 3 weeks recently and I had a brillant time. loved the people and it is a happening place. I would like to comment about a remark that was made about registration and police, yes you should carry you documentation about with you at all times and I speak from experience. One morning I went with my female friend to red square early morning 0800-0830 where she was leaving me and she was going off to work. I was going to see Lenin's Mausoleum, which opened at 10am. We were walking about and was near the underground shopping centre when my friend (female) was stopped and asked for her registration papers - they were out of date and the bent coppers charged her 2600 rubles and gave her false papers should she be stopped again. they looked at my passport and I was ok, but then they knew I was a foriegner and made comment to cover up, they didn't want to look bad....TOO LATE. It was a more expensive fee than usual because there was 3 coppers together. Nevertheless they took her money after making her sweat awhile. i tried to take there picture, but it came out blurred as light was low. Anyway this was one of my experiences and females do get asked for registration documents. Thank you for listening. Ashley

I am looking for help and knowledge firstly can a tickets be purchased in UK and sent to someone in Russia? I would like the cheapest flights from Khabarovsk (KHV) to London (LHR) return, would it be better to say, purchase tickets Khabarovsk to Moscow return and then Purchase tickets from Moscow to London return separately? Any information regards flights, cost or any knowledge would be very helpful. I appreciate your time, thank you.

kind regards
Ashley
