Just took $200 out an ATM in Las Vegas. Being resident in Holland I shat myself when I was offered a Euro conversion price of â,¬201.36 for the $200 withdrawal. :eek: ok they always do that but milestone or what?

Yep, I had the same reaction when a CE game ordered from the UK ended up costing me â,¬185..

Euro is rubbish right now.  Wish we never adopted this currency to be honest.  Our Lira used to be stronger than the pound..

The pound will drop in value closer to the general election... So soon you will be getting a 1:1 with the pound and euro.

I can remember when Malta used Stirling.
Really useful when we went on hols with our relatives there, even more so when my uncle was desperately trying to get assets out of the country as Mintoff was taking power.
He ended up buying and posting rare stamps to my dad.
