leccy in spain

Going to spain on sunday.
Have found an unopened "worldwide travel plug" in the attic, made my dunlop (!) but not sure if it is suitable.
The plug itself says "do not use in UK, MAX 7 1/2 A 110-250V~" and apparently it "doesn't convert voltage"
It has 2 pins in one end and the other end looks like a normal GB socket. It doesn't explicitly say it works in spain, but it says it works in countries which use the European 2-pin system (is spain included?)
Any ideas if this is 'probably' ok to use with my normal GB Nokia phone charger? I realise nobody can be 100% sure.
If not, what's the worst that can happen, and any ideas where I can get a cheapo one that will do?

It sounds like the bog-standard UK- European plug converter. This will certainly be OK for your phone charger. In fact I use the same sort of arrangement for my Nokia charger.What part of "A whop bop-a-lu a whop bam boo" don't you understand?0
