mailing between US & UK?

Hello all,
I'm a newbie here so very sorry if a similar post has been here before.

I have a bit of a complicated issue here. I have some SASE for people whose addresses are in UK. It just so happens that I'm going to UK in a few weeks, so I figured I can bring the envelopes with me and mail there locally. But, I actually live in US and so I will still need the signed SASE to be mailed back to US. What should I do? Do I bring forever stamps with me to UK?

Thanks so much!!

You'll need UK stamps for mailing them back to the US. American stamps are completely out of the equation here.

Yes, you need UK stamps.

The prices from UK to US are:
up to 10g £0.88
up to 20g £1.28
up to 40g £1.88

Just attach sufficient UK stamps, and make sure your return envelopes are addressed properly.

1st/2nd are worth £0.60/£0.50 respectively, and are widely on sale, or you can go to a Post Office and but the above denomination stamps.
