[ericw]

Just starting to put a packing kist together.
What are the electricity supllies in the countries we visit? ie Voltage and wall sockets types. This so I can bring the right adaptors or tranformers if needed for charging my camera and phones.
Thanks in anticpation.
Eric.

Hi Eric
Sorry for the delay in getting back to you - we've been having some problems with the website recently.
Voltage won't be an issue in the four countries you are visiting. You will need two types of the European-style round 2-pin plug (CEE7/4 and CEE7/7), so I would recommend investing in a universal adaptor. You'll also be able to use this on future holidays, wherever you are in the world.
I hope you get this message in time.
Kind regards,
Olly, your editor

Thanks Olly,
Message missed me by minutes as I set out about that time for the get-together and overnight stay at Heathrow. I had however found the info I needed elsewhere, good old Google, and took an adaptor as you described.
Thouroghly enjoyed the tour and all 'cultured out' now.
Best wishes, Eric.
