Fee free Sterling Amex travellers cheques?
Now before everyone jumps on me to say the usual, that travellers cheques are the worst option (a view I would normally completely agree with) - I am going to Gambia, where credit & debit cards are usually not accepted and ATMs are often empty.

Cheap travel to the Isle of Wight
I'd like to go to the Isle of Wight for a weekend in February but I'm amazed at how expensive it is! I'd be travelling from Yorkshire. I could get the train from home but that's about £150 which seems a lot. Other option is to drive and get the ferry but I think that's going to be expensive too as the ferry costs to get me…

Hi My son is going to be working at a French ski resort for 5 months, and we need to work out the best arrangement for phones and banking.
