Hi there all of you who have answered me - Eliza, Wynn & Pam, Lovely to hear from you. I have a tip on cards & money. The office told lme that if you use a debit card or a credit card you'll get stung for a 2 or 2 1/2% fee, so I'm taking sterling & Rand to pay for the trips. I'm counting the days off am sure we are going to have a wonderful time even though we are 3 women & 4 chaps!! Helen

SORRRRY! I meant 31 women & 4 chaps!! Rather a difference!

Hi Helen - thanks for the money tips.Didn't know about the charge on debit cards and reading previous tips thought I needed us dollars for add on visa etc.
Have a great time - outnumbered by chaps eh ?
Maybe you could let us know how it all goes before we leave on 11th ?

Hi P Wynn I thought you were going on a different date. I'm going 18th Feb. Got my Malerone online for £27 p&p free from Travelpharm. Miles cheaper than in the chemist. We need 12. You have to get a prescription from the doctor, they arn't free.
