    Hello Amazing Elite
    Have any of your been to Marrakech? I'm going in August and trying to work out the best thing to do about getting their currency.
    It's a closed currency so you can only get it once there - do I take cash and exchange it, and if so where?
    Or do I pay money onto my Halifax Clarity Card and then withdraw cash from an ATM?
    Thanks for any advice anyone can give.

    Once you collect your suitcases there are exchange booths open that you can change your currency at. Alternative the hotels offer this facility too :D

    Pretty sure we changed money at the hotel.

    Don't forget to haggle HARD at the medina, me paid tiny percentages of what they asked first off.

    This was not in Marrakech but Agadir, we were again at a market and bumped into some other English people, so we got together for the haggling (we were obviously more practised than them) and ended up being given a spice grinder (OK a tiny item) just to get rid of us :rotfl::rotfl:

    We were supposed to be getting rain today but it has not materialised.

    I bet it will rain tomorrow as we are going to the air show.
    What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare

    I messed up. It's the last day for the free Amstel on my cs. I got a Stella Artois by mistake. Well they both begin with an A. And it's written as that on receipt. Which means they won't pay out and the offer will expire before I go back to tesco. Can you tell my head ain't right.


    Happy Birthday Zip ! :)

    Although there's not much left. However new stuff seems to be getting put out daily so might be worth a look:)

    I'm out the door early this morning paw sniffers.

    Have a great day everyone:)


    Quite a lot of olive oils, thai curry pastes, pickled gherkins, spagetti & balsamic & other stuff I cannot remember in my local tonight. i got a few bits, but I do not really need much.
