Pound/Euro 2019

[Jimbo]

I've decided that frequently posting the rates is so depressing that I'll only bother if there is a significant move either way.

The pound hit a five month low this morning - TravelFX rate is 1.1143 and Interbank rate is 1.1241. Currency traders IMX daily newsletter predicts a further fall.

Still - it's warming up in Ag Stef. Even saw some people wading in the sea on the Nafsika webcam this morning.

Yip - I've given up waiting in case of an increase and took the pain yesterday. Still 12 days til we fly out but don't anticipate any improvement.

Camera has moved again Jim...

I emailed Spiros asking him to show a bot of the pool by the bar - and he's done it!

Excellent Jim

I mean to say "bit" rather than "bot," but I guess it's relevant! :-)

Mega times better Jimbo, thanks for that sir

I thought that Jim, but I liked 'bot' better

Looks beautiful in San Stef today.  Fairly quiet round Nafsika pool. Just over 3 weeks for us

One little bit of good news-every cloud and all that- as a result of my accident in San Stef and enforced abstinence we have a good few Euro left that we got when the rate was 1.16.Better get back over PDQ and spend ‘em.

[Jimbo]

I get your logic! Last summer we spent euros we still had because I had a stroke the previous autumn and had to cancel with 13 days to go. Let's hope we're all well enough to spend our remaining not-very-good-value euros from last year together with our Monopoly-money conversions this year!

I’ll drink to that Jimbo.

We're about to buy some dosh to take with us, and it's pretty depressing, really, compared to what it used to be. TravelFX is 1.1014 and the Interbank rate 1.1134

There's not much chance of this changing significantly over the next few months. Those with pensions or limited funds will probably have to cut out a cocktail or two or tighten their belts. I can't tighten mine much without looking like a skeleton out of Raiders of the Lost Ark. For some, though, it could have benefits - I get a bit fed up with people telling me I need to put weight on when political-correctness enforces me to remain silent over their excess body mass.

We got 1.10 at our local Tui shop a week ago.

TUI are giving good rates at the moment. Worth a look!
