Do you know what currency your country uses?

I buy Euros at my local Post Office when I’m travelling to Euroland. Recently I have bought them for travel to France, Greece and Southern Ireland.
Yesterday I was in the queue to buy them for my trip that starts tomorrow, my trip to Manchester, when it dawned on me that we don’t use Euros in England. I got out of the queue before I made a total idiot of myself.
Is your mind always fully engaged when organising your life?

Not always. We're lucky that we can use the Dollar all over the US and Mexico.

Euros in England.
Ah
It was never ever going to happen
We couldn't sign up for the Euro -That just wouldn't be England
Can't use foreign Johnny money that Fritz uses
We didn't vin the vor to use their money you know
Sadly currency was.one.of the things that resulted in more of my fellow Scots voting to remain in the UK in 2014
I remember Alex Salmond being interviewed and not being able to confirm what currency we would use.
I knew them we were doomed to keep using the £
We should have had the thistle
And shoved it right up David Cameron's ...
