Which is exactly "about 230GBP".

true, but you've removed the relevant bit, which was the link to xe.com, which site I find very useful when pricing things from or to forn parts.

We're talking about the odd quid here. Exchange rates change often enough to make that level of accuracy irrelevant unless you are considering and actual purchase there and then.

GBP = Euros x 0.7, unless you need the answer in decimal ha'pennies.

I had a go at dragging the 101 up the garden today. It is indeed hard work, especially without a handle for the tirfor!. I need to find some scaffolding! :)

I managed to move it about an inch, so i know it works! The wall i was anchoring off didnt enjoy it though! I almost used a wooden lamp post as an anchor but it felt very wobbly and im not sure what the council would say if i pulled it over...

I quite agree about the accuracy. what I find useful about xe is the range of currencies and the ease of use.
