So not really caring what my neighbours...

    How Many Guns does one need to be safe?

    Pound against the euro

    As far as I can see the economic advantages of joining can all be obtained through a fixed exchange rate instead of a floating one, but these arrangements in the past - £ to gold in the 30s, £ to $ after WWII, £ to DM in the ERM, Argentinian ?? to $ in the 90s and so on seem to end up going...
