    was in KFC in strabane tonight and saw that there euro rate is at 70p.
    considering the bank rate is 89 - 90p, this has to be the worst rate

    thank f--k i had sterling

    They always have a very bad exchange rate in there anytime I have been in there!

    That's ridiculous. I'd go in again, make a huge order, offer them euros but before they take it, ask them how much they charge and then refuse to pay it and walk out. Daylight robbery.

    Thats a fair point.

    Let the feet do the walking instead of complying and then beating the poor old keyboard to death.

    The rate in there hasn't changed in so long,it's been 70p this last year or so regardless of what the actual rate is!
