"This afternoon I can get 1.13949 Euro's to the pound, Tourist rate I do understand, and not the official exchange rate."

Where are you getting that, Raggytash? That's two and a half cents better then Caxton, who are rarely bettered!

My current Caxton rate is 1.1150, which is over a cent lower than when I bought my dosh yesterday afternoon. The pound continues its downward soar, Keith.
