Hmmm. Sounds like a bunch turning up on scooters and talking about drugs, nothing new there
- only at our age the drugs are all pain killers, anti-inflamateries........

Ugly Bunchers,
Can you make sure that your mobile phones have international roaming set to on. A call to your provider (Orange, Vodaphone, etc) should provide the answer. Without it you cannot make or receive calls. Those of you who have 'Pay As You Go' phones please make sure you have plenty of credit as calls abroad charge for both making and receiving a call.
If you are thinking of using a Bank Card abroad let your bank know when you will be away. They may see a transaction from France or Belgium and block your card. (Which is a bugger if you want to pay an on the spot speeding fine - doesn't apply to Majesty 250 - not fast enough!)
Cheers,
