Gardian Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 At 06.00 on Thursday 20th December, I received a nice message from SFR on my mobile which read:"Bienvenue en Islande" "Pour appeler, etc. etc"The only slight problem was that to the best of my knowledge, we were approaching Pompey on a Brittany Ferries cross channel ferry! Happily, the captain had got his navigation right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renaud Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 We are off to Iceland to (hopefully) see the Northern lights in a months time. I will let you know what message I get on my mobile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
