I KNOW there are alot of folk who are finding the euro/pound thing a pain, me included but the media seem to enjoy "bigging" it up and making it worse. I dont believe running back to the UK would be a cheaper option tho!

I have to agree with you Jo, I too hate the way the Media will create a problem ( Mountains and Molehills come to mind) to up the ratings, its nothing to do with empathy, its just pure rating grabbing, we are all feeling the pinch in Europe, but the Media (TV and Papers) seem to get a kick out of Glorifying our problems, I hate newspapers and dislike TV issues such as prearranged "Public interest" documentaries,I had better get of my soap box and get back to reading the Exchange and Mart.
