Anyone out there prepared to take an inspired guess as to which way sterling is going to go against the euro over the coming months?

Last week the high street was offering 1.10 euros to the pound. About the same as early this year.

We are thinking of getting some as unlike in previous years when we've had a few hundred left over, we spent them in Ireland so have none to hand.

No Political Statements Please.

So, we bought some Euros today at a local travel agents with no commission. 1.106 euros to the pound. Better than Thomas Cook and the Post Office.

Let's see how it goes before we buy some more

Two interesting points to ponder.

Bryn, maybe we're just old fashioned but we've never considered buying our euros on-line. At those rates it makes sense to do so but the thought of doing so is alien to us.

Steve. Of course, on a few occassions we've had to top up our cash by visiting a bank in whichever country we find ourselves in but we've never considered it as exchanging money although we do glimpse at the exchange rate.

We don't take a huge amount of cash with us preferring to use our credit card wherever possible.
