Quote Of The Day

From the Telegraph (my emphasis):
The clock is ticking for the euro. After 11 years circulating in shops and bars from Athens to Zeebrugge, there are, it is said, just 10 days left to save it
Was the use of Zeebrugge deliberate?

  4. He can't even get that right ... the euro was launched on 1 January 2002 ... that's ten years ago, not eleven.

    @Richard, Are you expecting Telegraph journalists to have the ability of being able to count? You have high standards! ;-)
