    It's all about risk, for one night in Spain, I would take the chance, nobody is forced to follow my advice.;)

    But maybe giving that advice is irresponsible?

    The EHIC does not provide you with repatriation, travel for someone to be with you should you require it, cover for theft/ loss/ delays etc.

    Good advice given by others - get an annual policy if you are travelling again (American Express cover is just over £10 if you go through Quidco!), or a cheap single policy from e.g. the Post Office, again through Quidco.

    Have a good trip! x
    Gone ... or have I?

    I never suggested that anyone should do what I would do, I only ever said that is what I would do.

    So how would you feel without insurance cover that could mean that you would not be repatriated to the UK if needed?

    and you have only saved about £5.
