using my US appliances back in the UK
We're heading back to the UK for 10 days in July and are travelling back with a number of electrical items we bought over here: canon digital camera; palm tungsten; electric toothbrushes.
What's the easiest way to get them to work in the UK?
Amazon has a number of travel adapters but the reviews/advice offered are pretty varied.

No offence, but why bother with electric toothbrushes? For ten days, why not save the space/weight in the suitcases for some British goodies to bring back, and use normal toothbrushes? Especially if you aren't sure whether they will work properly.

Thanks.
I though I was going to have to resort to sketchpad and pencil to illustrate and record any highlights of our trip.
