      So your £20K is just a hedge. Fair dos though, as I presume you'd shift your house money into Euros.

            That or pay off what remains of mortgage on the remaining property. It's all swings and roundabouts.

                My earnings and spending are in euros. We use the sterling for shopping trips and restaurants, nothing meaningful.

                  I am keeping large sum of USD/EUR to change only after referendum takes place.

                  If there is a LEAVE vote then I expect to buy a few rows of houses for 5 dollars.

                      I've got my currency account open and ready to buy a shed load of Euro's when it tanks!
