I thought it touched parity on Monday? Either way, once you've paid commission/high street exchange rate you'll be lucky if you're getting a 1-for-1 even now.

My vote for "official" parity goes to before Christmas.

High street exchange rate? Get thee behind me!

I am thinking not of a real buying or selling rate, but of a quoted mid-rate as you'd find on BofE, Yahoo etc.

Dunno, but I'm enjoying the countdown. Way more entertaining than watching Corras.
