Money!

I don't think I'm stupid but I can't seem to get to grips with this Exchange Rate. I even tried Googling it earlier but it's still a bit vague. If the value of the British Pound goes down does that mean the Euro goes up? Could it be the other way around? Do I have to take into account the value of the American Dollar or the German Euro?

I've been watching the BBC News over the past few weeks in the hope someone will explain it. Hopefully, all will become clear in the course of time!

My Money Factory

Brian has a dish in the kitchen where he shoves his loose change into along with his house keys and other sundry items. You wouldn´t believe how much I can collect over a couple of months for my money factory.

The bronze stuff is shared between Charlotte´s money box and Doreen´s charity, the Music and the Deaf, but I take the gold for whatever I´m saving for at the time.

I´m hankering after one of those mini laptops at the moment as I´m dreading being without internet access whilst I´m in England in October. Seventy Euros so far and counting!
