Ouch! I plead stupidity. Or maybe negligence. No, stupidity will do...

However a problem could be for you that Lidl still don't sell microSIMs. If you want to use the SIM card in an iPad you would need to punch out a microSIM from the regular SIM. So you should buy and carry a microSIM cutter (sold for $4 on ebay.com) in order to render your Lidl SIM card iPad-compatible. Alternatively I can offer you to get you some Lidl SIM cards and punch out microSIMs from them as I recently bought such a microSIM cutter after I got a Sony Xperia P which requires microSIMs.

Thanks but I have a SIM cutter already and have used it successfully a few times. In my experience it also is generally possible to snap the cut SIM back into the card and use it as a regular sized SIM -- usually the tension of the SIM holder is enough to keep the parts together. This is handy for moving a SIM between devices.
Thanks again for your help. I will remember to use your number so you get the referral bonus. (See, I can read after all...
