Hi folks, at the risk of yet again being a pain, I'd like to know how is best to cope with money whilst abroad. Bear with me. Over the last couple of years we have planned to spend the cold and soggy months somewhere warm, but for various health problems it didn't happen. We did try, but had to get back to the UK in a hurry. We took a shed load of Euro's with us( the exchange rate was good) but we still have quite a lot left. I have a (what i'm told is) final set of blood thingies in mid December so Sue and I are hoping to pursue our dream and be snowbirds. Because we save for things and the wonderful prize that we won from WC together with the balance from our last foray we do a have reasonable lump of dosh to enable this indulgence. So here's the question :- How best to access the money ? Without using the B word we are hoping to go out mid Januaryish, but rather than turn everything into euro's prior to the trip, how is the best way to access and use our funds whilst travelling. I realise that this has been mentioned here before, but I cannot find a definitive answer, so my friends-----------------------------------------HELPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP
