Can anyone advise me on the best and safest way to take holiday money with me to France? Sterling notes, Euros, Travellers cheques or a mix of all. My caravan does not have a safe.

Using my bank card in the UK I have also been offered instructions in German but I can't confirm that this applies to all banks. Maybe it just depends from whom they bought the software.I always felt slightly guilty when using cash machines on the continent that they all offer the user several languages, but there is no sign of similar facilities for foreign tourists using UK ATMs. (Though I have to say we are offered both English and Cymraeg here in Wales.)
Anyway I asked my bank why they were so inhospitable to foreigners and their reply was that they are just as friendly. They said if a foreign cash card is inserted the user will be offered more languages. So I have been trying to find somebody with a continental bank card to check out the story in a UK machine. Anybody able to confirm this? Lutz perhaps?
Cheers,
