I booked a flight to Denpasar Bali and its the first time I'll be flying on my own.

From Tripadvisor.com:

You can buy IDR quite easily in the UK, but you'll get a lower exchange rate than if you take GBP toย Baliย and exchange there.

So the best option is to take GBP and exchange when you're in Bali. The airport money changers (after the customs and x-ray check) offer a rate that's slightly lower than in your destination (if you're in south Bali) but still better than UK rates. So maybe exchange about 50 quid at the airport to get you going then exchange the rest when you're in your destination.

It's worth taking debit/credit card as a back up, but remember to register your travel dates and countries with your lender so that the card isn't blocked for a fraud check should you need to use it.

Using a credit/debit card isn't as cost effective generally compared to taking cash; you will get stung for a transaction fee and foreign exchange fee. There is a way around this if you use a Halifax Clarity Credit Card to make the withdrawal then the same day go into your online banking and pay off the amount withdrawn to avoid the daily interest charge of a credit card cash advance.

Store your cash in your in-room safe or the reception safety deposit box depending on your property.

Travel cards are generally okay in Europe and the US; but for use outside of these destinations generally not cost effective.

Re: the Great Gun Control Debate, I received an email today from a help-qa.com user, and I will reply to it, keeping everything as short as possible .

The only time I hear about the "Dems want to take away your guns", is when the alt-right, NRA proponents bring it up.

NO ONE wants to take your gun away! But please convince me you need an assault rifle with 80 round clips AND a bump stock to go God damned quail hunting...!!!!!
AND AT AGE 18 !!!

Snopes is thoroughly discredited as a fact checking site. The founder is being divorced by his wife for cheating and there are allegations of embezzlement--and it has now been taken over by corporate interests.

So if Snopes said the sky is blue they are completely complicit in posting a lie.

Give me a break! The students from Parkland are not being controlled by any outside influences. They just want common sense gun laws. Period. The more you attempt to propagate right wing conspiracies, the less common sense you spew.

And the more you sound like your information comes from smoking mushrooms.

The claims that Mr. Soros paid anybody connected to the March for our Lives protests is not true.

would u take a job that's a bit higher pressure and 30-45 minutes away for 80 dollars more a week?

Very high turnover in phone sales too. Just know they already hate you before they pick up their phone. If you can keep them on the phone PAST 15 seconds you might have a 50/50 chance to get them to cooperate with your canned sales pitch.

Keep in mind, most sales calls are made 2-3 times to the same household. If they hang up on you within that first 15 seconds, the angrier they will be for the second and third phone call. And you are not told if that number was tried by a coworker just days sometimes minutes before.

Some boiler room's, as Sherlock calls them, do flex between campaigns from out-bound sales to in-bound sales. I worked in one that is still here locally.

Sold hurricane Windows one week and took orders for the Vermont Teddybear Company the next just weeks before Valentine's Day.

In-bound calls are so much better.

It's the same thing where I live. More than 200 people move to Nashville every day. The roads are overcrowded, rent and house prices have skyrocketed, there's construction everywhere, it's a pain in the rear... I think we need to build a wall around our city, yeah that's the ticket. No vacancy.

Nobody leaves? So 200 everyday into new construction properties only. Your construction workers must be slammed and not get much sleep.

Amendment II to the Constitution of the United States wrote:

"A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed."

Open to anyone:

When did we become well regulated ? Specific day, date, and time please...

And if a wall gets built, we are no longer free. Think about that.
