Thanks for the information. (We hope to return to England next year for a vacation. At one time, Greece was on the agenda to visit, but it’s off now along with Spain).

Interesting situation and fascinating to me. As close as I am trying to follow it, I still am somewhat confused about the EU.

Imagine the United States as a country with 50 different cultures and tongues and fifty different value system, each state not pledging allegiance to the flag of the United States. Each state with each own constitution and each state not required to abide by the constitution of the United States of America.

That's the EU for you. Each country has its own way of running its economy, yet, they have all but ceded monetary policy to centralized bureaucrats sitting in Brussels.
