Théière Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Nothing really new about bad rates at the airports. But the pound is still sliding against the Euro.I wonder if the French will come to Britain buy our houses as they become cheaper and rent them to French holiday makers?We have some nice cheeses here too, the language is similar and I am sure we could get the law changed so they can wear the Gillets [:D] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
