Answer 2

first and foremost get a nationwaide building society account and save all your travel money with them - why? becuase they are the ONLY financial institution that gives the 'mid-rate' when you spend overseas rather than the AMEX rate.  In english, if you withdraw - say $100 from an ATM in Aus, the amex rate could be $2.35 to the £, Nationwaide rate would be $2.44 to the £. Avoid travellers cheques at all cost, far too expensive.
