Re: UK Pound v's Euro
That's it, bollocks! if something doesn't happen in the next couple of months we're off back home to crappy bloody England, gutted, but how can we change our money to buy a house at this rate (112.somethingorother). If we ever want to change it back it could cost us a fortune. I blame the government, bloody Gordon bloody Brown.....rant, bloody,...rant e.t.c, e.t.c:curse:

Re: UK Pound v's Euro
At the moment to change it from Euros to pounds would be a great rate. I'm sorry you need euros at such a terrible time, hold your nerve.

Interbank rate is 1.1138 at the moment. 1524
At this rate (no pun) it will make parity very soon.

Re: UK Pound v's Euro
Holding my nerve......getting ready to switch backout of EUR into GBP.... 
Well, made me feel good for a second or two ! Price of fuel here is significantly more than UK, in just a few weeks, although Spain was worth the drive yesterday for just that reason. I reckon USA got ill first, then UK.....so Eurozone must follow, and therefore Sterling will strengthen in the late Spring/Summer.

Re: UK Pound v's Euro
Without a doubt Sterling will strengthen. No doubt the financial crisis in Italy and Greece will put huge pressure on the Euro as their financial problems push them into the abiss...even with EU creative accounting it is hard to miss the elephant sitting on the sofa!! Remember the UK have only got one foot in the EU.

Re: UK Pound v's Euro
German economy is growing at about 1.5% per year:

It's been pretty much in the state of permanent stagnation since the re-unification. I haven't seen any visible improvement on my visits there in the last 10 years. I'd say the biggest difference has been that they allowed to drive on motorway shoulders.

Re: UK Pound v's Euro
I wouldn't worry too much. It is a GLOBAL problem and the pound has always been cyclical. If today's Observer is anything to go by at least the UK is doing something about the problem now. http://www.guardian.co.uk/business/2...loyment-europe
