But if the Euro is ever worth more than the pound....would it make sense to join it?

I don't know. I'd assumed it was bad.

So at the moment £10,000 savings might only become 10,000Euro(I can't get the symbol!). If the pound was strong it might become 20,000Euro (made up exchange rates). I'd assume the later would be better, but then again...it depends on the strength of the pound/euro versus others, not just each other...

My head hurts...
