Currency fluctuations

The Guardian was at its erratic best on Friday, reporting Harold Pinter's Nobel Prize and in particular the money that he won along with the award. It mentioned the $1.3 million on the same page twice. At the top, it reported that in sterling, this was worth £741,500. The currency markets must have been having a wild day of it because by the time I got to the bottom, it was worth only £723,000.

More blogging please! I love reading your blog and it feels more virtuous than just scanning U75 for the odd interesting post. Keep up the good work. :)
