If you live near the Northern Irish border, its chock a bloc with euro
punters heading north. On the day the London govt reduced vat to
15%, rubber lips hiked it up to 21.5% in the republic. That a staggering
differential of 6.5%. With the euro punt almost now worth a £, it must be penny/cent from heaven.
Belfast is now the shopping capitol if Ireland, and B&Bs near the border who normally close after the season are now full of euro shoppers.

Can you imagine Maplin reducing its prices nett, the way they hiked them up in the UK.
