Off topic and past giving a damn, but me being thick makes me stuggle to fathom the intricacies(sp) of the financial markets and thus the value of the Pound Sterling; here we have it that most European countries are in financial meltdown and the EURO is about to sink without trace if you believe the news, the US $ is supposedly also in all sorts of trouble, the USA has lost its AAA credit rating and Obama is starting to get a bit concerned about the state of the US economy (understatement) and yet here in rip off Britain we're told that we're out of recession and things are improving. Now in laymans terms to me that reads that the Pound £ should be fairly strong against the other currencies - but whilst the Pound £ has strenghthened a little recently it's still doing pretty dire things especially against the Euro. WTF is going on?
