Went to a local pub afterwards usually to relax. You'll probably get snow/ice during the dark/cold months. Yes they celebrate Christmas. Never went hunting, but they do have pretty restrictive gun laws (i.e. nearly impossible to own a gun). A lot of good cars in that range (BMWs, Peugolt, etc.), and the roads are kinda small for a big truck. Didn't use the chunnel; just used Ryan Air to fly everywhere (super cheap).
If you're a soccer fan, definitely try to get to a few games. Went to a couple Arsenal games and it was pretty awesome.
