Might put off my shopping at Lidl for a few days if it keeps going like this.
:D


Not like the almost parity last year, but nowhere near as good as the 1.40 odd, also last year.

So you were the fat git buying all the pies!


It'll be back to 1 for 1 next week ...always happens to me :cry:

Given what's happening in the Eurozone, (Portugal, Eire, Greece and Spain?)
I wouldn't hold my breath for 1 for 1 anytime soon.

Are you sure that Germany will be in Euro or either EU at the end of next year?

Right now I wouldn't want to bet about anything to do with the EU or the Euro.

It would be best for us to go bankrupt now while our debt is insignificant compared to the rest of Europe. If we wait for the big boys to go first, we will be in deep shit!

"The pound, which has been hard hit since the financial crisis, will end next year at $1.82 against the dollar and 78p versus the euro, it was estimated. The currency closed on Thursday in London at $1.5728 and 84p."


Even if the £ did get down to 78p vs. the €, which I doubt btw, just because the British coalition government showing signs of collapsing with time, it is way off the mark prior to 2008. All the bad news are already built in the €uro already and still riding higher than the £, despite all the bad news.!
