Don't forget your EHIC cards!!

[pincher]

Haven't seen it mentioned anywhere recently, so though I'd just give everyone a heads-up to make sure they take their card with them

Hope no-one will need to make use of it, but you never know!

wassat then?

New version of the E111 or something? If so good call.

Yep - replacement for the E111

Info here

Probably a bit late to sort one now but I'm guessing that most will already have one.

Quick bump for those who don't read at the weekend.

Good heads up....just thought of exactly the same thing this morning

So if I don't have one of these, and i get hurt, do I just get left to die then??

With 18 hours before I leave, I doubt there is much I can do about it now!

Nope, your E111 / EHIC is basically medical cover, so if something nasty happens you don't get lumbered with a massive bill.
Thankfully I get private healthcare worldwide through work otherwise I'd be knackered as I've never once remembered to do it.
