Alibi Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 Get a Revolut card and you can load it up with any currency you want, and more than one currency. I hold a stash of Euros on it and use it when in Europe with no problem. Also works with sterling. Can do currency exchange on the app. In Spain recently I never even saw any actual Euros - it was all done with my phone which is linked to my Revolut account.

Really brings context to drinking here, the beer here is general gash. Saying that, everything here is generally gash in comparison. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

killiefaetheferry Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 To be fair, we found a nice wee 'neighbourhood' mussels restaurant and had a good meal but that is one of the least attractive places I've visited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just there one night to connect with a flight to Menorca. The airport was nice and the Jupiler on tap was excellent 🍺 Actually, I might post a wee vid from Charleroi airport 😂 Edited June 2, 2023 by killiefaetheferry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairbairn Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 Best part of 7 quid a pint in Pitlochry!! 😳 It's beautiful up there but at those prices the visits won't be overly frequent! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
