Competitors Note: In addition to all the
usual signing on documents, you MUST provide a European Health Insurance
Card (EHIC). The EHIC is the replacement for the E111 (which is no longer
valid). Just to prove that all Europeans are equal, G. Brown Esq. will take
a Tenner off you for the privilege and most likely hand all the personal
details over to the Triads/terrorists/any scammer who happens upon them.
Details of how you can be ripped off on line can be found at
www.ehic.co.uk or you can try
listening to Vivaldi at 0871 434 9075. On the upside, the French heath
service is rather good and you're unlikely to get MRSA so why not take a
week to gets all those embarrassing personal ailments sorted while you're
there.
