When will people stop saying "0207" or "0208" when quoting London phone numbers?

We actually live in Harrogate, Yorkshire, but I'm starting a new job in London and will be moving with my family soon. Two kids 8 and 5. Can you suggest nice places: i.e., with train link (no more than 30-40min ideally to Masrylebone, Pic, Vict or Kings Cross), good schools, interesting coffe shops, restaurants and shopping district,... I've heard of places like Chalfon, Berkhampstead, Beconsfield. Any suggestions? Thank you so much.

..also what's the difference between a person who's "English" vs. "British"? I know it has to do with where a person is from, England, Ireland, etc. but it's unclear..

Back to my main question: WHY are some Brits so prejudice against Americans? (for example the British slang: "septic tank = Yank, an American.")
I've never been to England before but it seems like many Brits are very anti-American. Brits can't just lump us Americans all together like that. America is an incredibly diverse country and obviously everyone is going to be different and have their own opinions on matters, political or otherwise.
I've recently watched Green Street Hooligans (about English football fans and 'firms') and the characters are all extremely anti-American. Is this true to life or just exaggerated for film???

*****For humanities' sake I hope that there isn't this must unfounded prejudice in the world! *****

p.s. I've always loved British culture and literature...Rosie Rushton :) !

I'm going to the UK in July and wanted to know if there are any good hotels I should look at. I need a room with some space, and something fairly reasonable. It would be on a weekday, with 3 people in one room. Thanks!

That's not the reason I'm going that far by the way. My husband wants to go and pick up a car, but for me it's absolutely vital that there's an Ikea there just to keep me from moaning.

I'd appreciate any ideas for a family holiday - we are mid 30's and our children will be 4 (nearly 5), 3yrs and 3 months at the time. It will be last 2 weeks of August and the budget is £2k tops, preferably including food etc. Creche or nursery would be a bonus!

Thank you.
