Coming up to holiday season :j Spanish will be breathing a sigh of relief,'Just think for a moment what a prospect that is.

We really need to keep the Goldilocks exchange rate, neither too high to lose competitiveness (who wants to adjust via nominal wage reductions)or too low to provoke importing inflation.
