for euros try a prepaid debit card from fairfx.com

Lovely little excahnge rate (I got 40 euros more from them than I could have got from anywhere else).

Cna then use the card anywhere that takes mastercard for payment, jsut like using debit card back here.

If you need cash they charge 1.50 euros per withdrawl, so just take out a couple of big hits of 200 or something.
Worked like a treat for me a couple of weeks ago.
Chip and Pin too.
No joining/opening charges as long as you buy over a certain amount, can't remember what it is but its not that much i don't think. Less than we bought anyway.
