packs with a choice of four handsets – the Siemens C25,
Ericsson A1018, the Motorola M3788 and the Trium Astral.

of calls on registration. Calls will be charged during
weekdays at 35p per minute peak-rate and 10p per minute
off-peak, while weekend calls will cost 10p per minute
from 7.30am to 7.30pm and 5p per minute from 7.30pm
to 7.30am. See Vodafone's website at www.vodafone.net.
