keeping fingers etc crossed that it gets better still. Listening to radio programme yesterday that suggested you change some now while its ok ish and then risk whatever its like just before you go.
It really is difficult this time to know what to do.
We decided to risk it and buy at Travelex at the airport - as Linda gets it commission free (job-perk)!!
Tony, never buy currency from Travelex at any British airport; worst exchange rates bar none, unless your wife gets it at a non-tourist rate! Travelex online is a different matter - one of the most competitive. ICE (International Currency Exchange) and Post Office online also competitive and all commission free.

just phoned to inform credit card firm we will be in corfu just in case we need to use it and told there are 2 charges adding up to just under 6%  good job we always take cash so best if you check the rate with your bank to see the rate you will be charged seems thats how they are trying to claw the money back they lost

Ok - funnily enough she has to travel to Bristol Airport to set up mystery shoppers for it, on Friday.
She will then fly to Scotland to sort out another Airport and return to heathrow,
so I'll get her to check out the exchange rates at travelex boothes against the post office etc.
But from my experience, we always got a better rate in Corfu!

 Pound still making a comeback against the euro - up a cent today. Hopefully the BoE won't say anything to knock it down in the next 2 weeks and then it'll be NW flexaccount card in the hole in the wall.
 Every little helps.

Maybe you can!! You shop and get paid for it!!
She hires part-time mystery shoppers - to do all the Duty free shops and associates in most airports,
even our daughter does it 12 hours a week inc. doing the reports!!
