[Wikimania-l] something open for companions?
Hi, there are any activities in Wikimania open to travel-companions non-registered? (e.g: Sunday afternoon/evening activities) Which are? There is any limitation for children entrance in these activities? (if any) Thanks.

Re: [Wikimania-l] something open for companions?
Thanks Chris for the clarification and information. Children is under 18?, 16?, 12? Best regards. dvd. 2014-08-05 13:08 GMT+02:00 Chris McKenna chris.mcke...@wikimedia.org.uk: Many of the fringe events and meetups will be accessible to anyone with an interest, although the ones in pubs may not be suitable for children - enquire with the individual organisers for their attitude. The community village is public as will be some workshops. The Sunday evening party is not accessible to children due to the venue's licensing conditions.

Re: [Wikimania-l] UK Sim Cards for Wikimania
In which airport? I'll come via Gatwick. Would be easy to take the SIM there. An other option is to book one online [*] but it is the problem of giving a delivery address. [*] http://store.three.co.uk/view/searchSimOnly?tariff=115 2014-07-31 19:22 GMT+02:00 Nasir Khan nasir8...@gmail.com: I went to visit London about six month ago. On that time i purchased a Three sim card from the airport. It was a micro sim and had nano and standard adapter. the price was about £15. I purchased that sim because it has unlimited 3G internet for 30days plus 300 min local call and 3000 local sms. But i am not sure if it is available now or not. There was a vending machine just beside the first exit gate of terminal 4. I think from there you can choose the sim card by yourself. -- *Nasir Khan Saikat* www.nasirkhn.com On Thu, Jul 31, 2014 at 11:08 PM, Joseph Fox josephfoxw...@gmail.com wrote: Well, obviously Giffgaff isn’t going to be as good as the more expensive carriers, but you really can’t beat £12 for unlimited data even if it is occasionally quite slow ;) Joe On 31 July 2014 at 05:50:08 pm, Deryck Chan (deryckc...@gmail.com) wrote: I think they were around the South Bank / London Bridge / Chinatown area and had unbearably slow speed.

I learnt it the hard way when my family visited me last year. (I used to live in Cambridge where giffgaff is great.) This is because giffgaff is a virtual operator over O2 and a subsidiary of O2 (think of a flag carrier airline's budget branch) so giffgaff users need to give way to O2 users in areas with many users. And in central London, it means there's little or no data bandwidth left for giffgaff. So expect your goodybag to give you nothing but a dumbphone plan.
