Hello all, on our first trip abroard we went to Corfu in a apartment for two weeks as with all things Greek it was very basic, a very nice couple in the next apartment gave us a few tips that we never thought of before going away.
The first was always bring a philips screwdriver so you can clean the shower head as with most showers they never get cleaned and don't work very well, so this is a tip we always do even after all these years on.
The second tip he gave us was that they always bring with them Lemon soap as this helps to keep the mosquitos away, but we always use a good mosquito spray as well.
We have picked up lots of tips over the years, so can anybody else pass on some tips that you may find usefull when on holiday?

If you take your mobile phone with, you don't forget to put all the emergency and contact telephone numbers into its phone book. This includes numbers for your travel insurance, credit and debit cards and your tour operator.
Carry a photocopy of the photo page of your passport and also scan an image of this into your email inbox.
I've just seen this and would remind you to put them in your phone in the 'international' mode: (start with +44 and drop the first 0) i.e. 01702 123456 would be +44 1702 123456. All my important numbers are in that mode, as it works just as well at home in England.
