Not unless you tell us what network you're on!, if you go to your operators website it will tell you.

I think all European calls and texts are capped now under the European Commission roaming regulations. From memory the cap is about 15p per message, but best to go to the website of your network and look for the international roaming rates section where you should find the rates.

Shouldn't be too bad (check your providers website), gone are the days of extortionate costs using abroad (in Europe anyway, still pricey outside of Europe).

What phone do you have though? Plenty of apps for free or very cheap texting (though need to find free wifi to send via)

If you're with VF take advantage of their £3 a day roaming rate. It allows you to use your current tariff most places in Europe. I used mine for tethering and keeping in touch via calls and texts whilst I was away, and it only cost me £20 for the whole week. (I've no idea why it wasn't £21).
Bit of a bargain really.
