    people only want othe peoples opinions nothing more

    FWIW my opinion is dont buy any currency, use a fee free card when abroad, as for wether or not you will get more or less than 1.2 euros to the pound when you go...I have no idea because I cant see in to the future.

    Basing your currency purchasing on peoples opinions on an internet forum is crazy though

    Well it`s still rising!

    Today`s Mastercard conversion rate: Eur 1.234838

    I don`t think crystal balls are needed, just common sense.
    The eurozone is in big trouble and the £ is seen as much safer.(for now)

    Im going in 3 weeks - I have opted for half now at 1.21 and shall do the other half the week before I go to spread my bet. To be honest though if its just holiday money your not going to be talking much.

    There are only 3 colors, 10 digits, and 7 notes; its what we do with them that's important.
