MOUNTAIN GIRL'S PHOTO CHALLENGE - MONEY


My blogger friend mountain girl [do check out her blog] has brought back her excellent weekly photo challenge and this time, I thought I'd join in.

This week's theme is "money" and, though my photo is not very original, it does give me the opportunity to share with you a vignette from yesterday:



Handing me my change from a 50 euro note, a shopkeeper apologised that it was all in 5 euro notes. "Ma così ha più soldi, signora", ["This way you have more money"], he observed. "Questa è una logica che mi piace", ["That's the type of logic I like"], said I.

  1. Yes indeed. I'm still paid in pounds. A little less each month..but really, that is not important.

  5. Hi, Mary. Yes, the pound and the euro are nearly equal now, so I've lost out. But I am happy here! Hello, Scintilla. Glad you're rich, too! Ah, those were the days, WW! Thought you would, James.

    This looks like a fun thing. I have always enjoyed photo hunt and it makes one use that camera.
