Mrs OF and I will be in the UK for three weeks on a guided tour of the aviation museums, airfields and airshows.

Our phones are useless in the US, but throw-away sims seem to be the way to go in the UK.

Can any of our Brit members please advise me how much the sims would cost, and what the call pricing structure is?

The norm seems to be about a fiver (£5!!) pricing is very much network-dependent I'm afraid. The supermarket chains seem to do pretty cost-effective pricing even on the PAYG plans, e.g. 10p per text, anywhere from 4p to 15p per minute voice.

If you like, I'll check out some sites and PM them to you - might take a day or two though.

OF if you look around you may get the Sim card for about 99p, But there really easy to pick up pretty much every shop will sell them. Prices depend like DM said but gen about 10p a txt.

well its meant to be a really nice warm summer over here, So i'd expect lots of rain......

Rhiannon, I considered that, but it's just too darned expensive.

I don't mind how rainy it is, so long as it happens in places I'm not.
