But spare a thought for those of us who have property, investments and other interests tied up on that little island!

I am back in the UK at the moment, and thinking in Euros, everything seems so cheap at the moment. The problem is the pounds that I live off here, are the same saved pounds that I had when they were worth almost 40% more!

The Pound-Euro parity (almost) is shocking! From what I was listening to yesterday, it's still got a long way more to fall! It sounds terrible, but all I can hope for now is that the PIGS* of the Euro zone will push the Euro down a bit as well! Fingers crossed!

* Portugal, Ireland, Greece and Spain
