    You can spend bitcoins on all manner of things. Cash out if you must I guess. Support govt issued dosh.
    You live in the UK. Localbitcoins is one route. The Mycelium wallet for android phones has local traders on it.
    https://bittylicious.com do your own research, there will be plenty of others in the UK :)

    dont forget 1 btc is divisible to about 8 decimal points (maybe more cant think off the top of my head) so you could do multiple smaller transactions rather than 1 large one if needed.

    You can spend it on things. But if you want the easiest route to cash out, then use the exchanges.

    better to understand it first before buying some.

    think of it as foreign currency, many places will take it off your hand but at different rates of commission. there are some reputable places that charge a small fee, use these.

    To answer the original question - you would sell to somebody else

    If bitcoin goes to a certain price that means there are buyers at that price - you would sell to those buying at that price
