    Again, it is advisable to enter on the last day of the month to estimate accurately. :)

    I got an answerphone message from this company today which I assume is a marketing call after doing a quick search on the forum. Just thought I'd give people a heads up.

    It's not a marketing call. They just call to ask where you got the competition from.

    So I told him, "I wasn't expecting The Spanish Inquizition!"

    Then quick as a flash he replied, "Nobody expects The Spanish Inquizition!"

    Closed at 4pm EST (10pm GMT) on:

    1.00 GBP = 1.15035 EUR
    I guessed 1.1459. Don't think that's good enough though. Bah! Good luck guys.
