Has to be in Belgium Friday and Germany on Saturday and found myself constantly looking for free wi-fi conections (don't you hate it when you think you have struck gold and it turns out you be one of these 'pay wi-fi thingies'). You hang in there, I know you will now you have found your 'el dorado'. Enjoy your trip whil it lasts. Just booked a ticket, will be going back to Blighty this summer, it has been 12 years.
