        A 99p coin would be near enough 1 EUR.

            True.

            Unless they link their trading name to the forex then maybe they'd have to call themselves:

            SHODDYLAND

            CRAPSHOP

            PROLEMART

            etc.

              Contraceptive manufacturers.

              Heating costs too expensive?
              Can't afford to go out?
              Too much cack on telly?

              No problem! Get it on instead.

                    This is a problem of 'credit-crunch' (on-topic) rather than economic down turn.
                    How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.
