    No. It's an open forum.

    Have you heard of Google?

    You'll be asking us what to pack next.

    At least the meaning of the username is clear in this case, unlike so many that leave you guessing...;)

    but I don't know, I think it would be better to go with my car as closest as possible to the airport and park there and get a bus from there to the airport

    which would be that closest bus stop?

    I had a thought and I think I should be after the closest free parking to the airport, so that I can call a taxi from there (as waiting for buses is time consuming)
    I would pay 10 pounds for my fuel and 5 for the taxi (less than a mile) but I need a safe free parking close to the airport, any idea?

    No public free parking (i.e. on the street) can be considered 100% 'safe'. You pays your money (or not) and takes your choice.
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)

    OP my opinion is to either find out the cost of a taxi and compare it to the cost of parking at the airport or other parking that's off site but who provide a service to get to the airport.
