I wish I hadn't started this. The euro is now down to 1.18 against the UK Pound. Oh yes by the way the Sagres is 3.19 for a case of 6 not 3.16, but the good news is that 'L' has reduced the case of 24 Superbock down from 8.99 to 5.99!!!!!

Exclamation Re: UK Pound v's Euro


Grrr, when i think 1 year ago the pound was 1.57 to be exact , from the 02 of december is at 1.15 could not believe how much money we lost , that is massive! I spoke with some of my friends who are working in currency job and they predict an equity about the pound and the euro

1 pound = 1 Euro!!!!

Where are the interest now to work in UK? if the life is so expensive ? if all seems to increase, food, gaz, petrol, tube station!!!

Guys if it really happen, France would be the best to be! plus the quality of life is much higher than London!

That is really sad to say?

So Questions for the French person who are going to go back to their family for christmas:

Are you going to take all your pound and convert it into EUROS?

what is the best way to do it?

Because i really really think about doing it!

Cheers

Just wait until uk interest rates go down later today - I bet the pound will rapidly fall too.
