Norway and Iceland are in the EEA so are covered by the DSM (Digital Single Market) as part of the single market but Theresa May has ruled out being part of the single market.

Outside the EU
If you’re travelling outside the EU, you won’t be able to use your UK allowances. If you use your mobile data outside of the EU you will be charged up to £12.50 per Megabyte, depending on the country you’re in. For more information, including calls and text message charges visit Roaming Costs.

Speaking of talking crap - notice how I mentioned using data and Digital Single Market not calling. I use my phone all the time but probably use it to make a call about twice a month.

Thats now while we are a part of the EU, which is why I turned my roaming off when in the USA recently and just used wi-fi when available.

Seen some of your grand canyon photos,don't know why but I've always wanted to walk down and back,since I saw it.
It is amazing, one of those places that you have to see to realise how awe inspiring it us. Yes you know it’s going to be big, but....... it’s just an immense void

Talking of going down the Grand Canyon always makes me think of a young woman, one of the first UK lottery winners, who when interviewed said she was going to treat herself to a trip to the GC as she’d always wanted to go down on a donkey.

How the interviewer managed to avoid telling her the donkeys on Blackpool beach were much closer, I’ll never know

If you do, beware you don't stray into the forbidden zone! Here you don't have to be black to get shot for being there! There's been a lot written about the ancient discoveries in this area. Oddly enough, there's a direct correlation between the discoveries & the forbidden zone. Loads of articles & vids. Here's a wee 2-pager to whet your appetite .... http://locklip.com/an-underground-city-of-giants-discovered-in-the-grand-canyon/

Would be walking,them Donkeys go far to close to the shear drops.One little stumble and you've gone.
 
It doesn't matter if we leave or not the whole of Europe is going to blow up within the next few years, the fact that red tape signed and agreed by corrupt governments since we joined the Common Market 45 years ago shows the public's interest has not for one moment been served in this time.
Being a part of the EU has been compared to a marriage and leaving being a divorce, when in this case I feel sorry for the poor bloke who has to remain married to the old hag thats bleed him dry for years and will continue to do so due to a unwritten 'you're going nowhere mate!!' clause in the small print.
Personally if I was in charge I would break every agreement made, obstruct every motion carried forward,refuse all immigration dictates and ignore all European laws forcing them to expel us from the Union, which is basically another USSR and Yugoslavia.
