While on holiday in Thailand, the unthinkable happened. I fractured my ankle. I was coming down a waterslide at speed and when I turned the final corner I noticed a man sitting at the end of the slide, doing none other than taking a selfie. My foot slammed right into his back. I’m still in a moon boot six weeks later and will be for another month. The thing is, we were on an all-inclusive holiday, I brought no cash, so when it came to paying for pain relief and ankle supports, I turned to my credit card. I was confident using it overseas because I’d easily informed St George before I left that I’d be in Thailand, plus it has a low conversion rate. This is just one situation (probably the most memorable) where I would have been lost without my credit card.
