And the many days of self-loathing and desperation that followed.

Re: List of ranks
Now here we are three years later and it's all making even less sense than it did then!

Hooray for Andre-Xenon! 
Re: List of ranks
I still don't see my rank there yet, I have to keep winning it. 
Re: List of ranks
Thanks Humch.
Yeah Brexit is a ridiculous and embarrassing shambles. Don't worry, there'll probably be another vote soon!

Re: List of ranks
Really? I've heard a lot of noise suggesting that they'll never admit that a second vote is necessary or even valid. Still, if you think so, that's reassuring…Xenon wrote: Sat Aug 24, 2019 11:15 am Yeah Brexit is a ridiculous and embarrassing shambles. Don't worry, there'll probably be another vote soon!

Re: List of ranks
Of course, since Brexit, the GBP has been worth less than the Irish Punt (which can still technically be exchanged for Euro at the Central Bank).

I miss the Irish Punt to be honest.PluMGMK wrote: Sat Aug 24, 2019 2:42 pm Of course, since Brexit, the GBP has been worth less than the Irish Punt (which can still technically be exchanged for Euro at the Central Bank).

Re: List of ranks
I think there's an argument to be made that we could've weathered the recession better if we controlled our own currency. But I don't know how well it would've worked really.

I still just remember being a kid and everything being more expensive since the euro was less valuable.PluMGMK wrote: Sat Aug 24, 2019 2:45 pmI think there's an argument to be made that we could've weathered the recession better if we controlled our own currency.

Re: List of ranks
I still remember the rate: € 1 = IR£ 0.787564 
Re: List of ranks
I think it was roughly €1.27 the other way around.
Re: List of ranks
Math checks out...

I remember something like € 1 = FRF 6.56, though it's been a while.

Re: List of ranks
Really? I didn't realize the intra-European exchange rates were so dramatic. I just remember thinking that the euro coin must have been modelled on the franc coin.
