Waterproof Money Belt

    Ok, So I know I've left this really really late but I'm looking to buy a money belt for my travels to Thailand. I'm looking for something which is big enough to hold my money and passport and which i can hide under my top. It would be great if i could get a waterproof one so I could carry it to the beach and during Thai New Year (water festival).

    Anyways, as I'm leaving in 7 days, and based in Ireland, I'm restricted as to where I can buy something. As in I can't order things from the US as they will not be here on Time. I need it to arrive by Wednesday, the latest. So anyone know any shops or websites in Ireland (or the UK will do if they provide fast delivery) where I can get one.

    Really stressing about this now,

    Trishy x

    Your hardly going to wear a money belt to the beach?
    When I went to Asia I just got a tiny little leathery type bag in penneys, the strap was long enough to go across me so no risk of it being grabbed off me and just big enough for passport, cards and money. Id imagine you will be keepin most valuables in safes in guesthouses anyway so I dont think a money puch is really neccessary and have rarely seen anyone wear one.

    I actually saw a couple of people who used to put their phone and money into a ziplock bag and then put that into their handbag. Keeps water and sand out, quite a handy trick really
