Hi Mike:
Bad, Bad luck.
( - But aside from that, hope you had a good time )

After the initial trauma I was rather sanguine about the hardwear loss (well
insured). It was the passport loss that gave me waking nightmares which
lasted through the visit to the Police Nationale cop station to get an
incident report, until I got eventually to Nice airport, but it couldn't
have been easier. French Easyjet ladies couldn't have been more helpful.
After a brief ID check and a telephone conversation with a British
immigration officer, I was just wafted through check in and boarding like
royalty.

Check on the link below and see if there is something similar . .

I use the Sangean 606A which is a remarkable little radio

Thanks for the link. I'm not familiar with Sangean, but it seems to be
marketed as Roberts in the UK. I'll look at their range.

Thanks again
Mike
