Grant I totally agree with the Paseta being used I remember back in 1998 you could go out for a weekend with a 5.000 pasetas three of you and still have money left. Legally you are still entitled to use it. I bet most old Spanish people have more saved hidden away in pasetas than euros. Maybe the council could look at this as it could be just what la marina needs to kick start the area.

Quite intriguing. That is a great example of somebody using this unfortunate situation and finding an advantage or solution. Very brave and very controversial.

Hi Andi Yep agree Would be an idea to introduce it maybe on Market days ?

Yeah Paul very controversial indeed but an idea
that clearly could be a start without any loss !
Which maybe a wayout away from the Euro without costing the public to much money.
