I was in Dublin last weekend. I never get mmoney exchanged as I just use cash machines in foreign lands, I thought there was some sort of mistake or extra charges when I saw that it cost 207 quid for 250 euro's. At those rates 5 euro's for a guiness or lager is a bit pricey.......

Six months ago, 15.5 yuan/quid. Yesterday 13.77. China's frozen the dollar. Too risky these days.

We were a bit short of cash at the end of the holiday last week so changed £30 cash at Athens airport. We got 31 euros and change :shock:


I got robbed in Greece as well. Even in when the pound was strong you got a poor rate out of the cash machines.
