    There's a story - probably apocryphal - that in pre WW2 Germany a worker making his way home after being paid in cash, and the value of the currency was so devalued by rampant inflation that he had to use a wheelbarrow to cart the money home in.
    He stopped on the way home to nip into the pub for a quick pint and left the barrow outside the pub full of money, and when he got back outside the barrow had been stolen, but they'd left the money behind.

    Now that the pound is about 1 for 1 with the Euro, why don't we join the Eurozone..........if they'll have us (which I doubt!)

    Isn't he just scary...look at those eyebrows - that's where all the energy goes - don't do it, Darling, honey, sweety - it is wrong because it gives a false impression to everyone that all's well. Sadly, that is all that this administration has been doing for months and months!
