Worst comes to the worst, you can buy a map of a city when you're in the city. This is especially easy in London and Edinburgh since they are tourist places.

Re: A help request from our euro guys

OS maps are great for walking in the countryside.

For city centres head to a tourist office and pick up a free city map. They are conveniently located, government run so not selling you anything, reliable and helpful.

For "road maps" for driving, almost all petrol stations sell national road atlases which cover all motorways and most major A and B roads. Not always so great for city centre driving though.

Alternativey, www.maps.google.com rocks and shows all roads but not foot paths or train stations.
