Without having looked into it, I think most propably you will. I like it.

Your guess is as good as mine. William Wallace possibly.

Now the euro is in motion....

where next? where is the next huge currency union going to be???

North America? the Persian Gulf? East Asia?

Seems like Bush thinks it's a piece of ****.

He seems bewildered. What is this strange little tingy...

[Bereta_Eder]

bush couldn't tell apart a "paki" (as he calls them) kashmir separatist from an afgani civilian woman. He's lucky he has some cold war right wing bastards from the cold war era so they can tell him which way to piss.

I take it you have you got really good eyesight. I couldn't read it, even when I blew the image up.

Hang on, you're shortsighted though!

Yes, it's just a matter of time. As noted by someone before, Spain and Italy will receive loads of German and Irish coins this summer, FE. And the other way round. I plan on summer-touring Europe spreading all my Spanish Euros...

This is, of course, a function of time. Experts seem to have calculated the average "speed" of Euro coins to be 2 km a day.
The second time I payed with Euros, the change contained 3 foreign coins: 2 Belgian euros and a German 50 cts piece.

[ranskaldan]

I think the probability of getting foreign coins is greater in, say, the Benelux, than say, Finland and Greece.

It's much easier for a coin to skip from Bremen to Amsterdam than from, say, Athens to Naples.

[Fiera]

Yes, I have the feeling the last foreign euro coin I'l see is probably a Finnish one. There must be some Finnish Erasmus students in Madrid though...

London for example seems pro-€uro. Which is more than can be said for other parts of the country.

This reminds e of what my northern aunt once said to me - "The south is less English 'cos it's nearer France."

Ya gotta feel sorry for the Yorkshirepeople

[Paul Hanson]

Depends. I'm generally from what would be called "up north" (North Lincolnshire) and I deliberately did a favour for someone so that I could demand payment in euros.

Yipp€€!

wtf is the matter with Apolyton again?
