Post EU Directive
The English Penny

EU Directive No. 456179

In order to meet the conditions for joining the Single European currency, all citizens of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland must be made aware that the phrase 'Spending a Penny' is not to be used after 31st December 2009 .

From this date, the correct terminology will be: 'Euronating'.

Thank you for your attention.

In France you don't spend-a-penny, you Euronate ;)

Here in Blighty, we can still spend-a-penny :P

Are you sure an international forum is right for you?

they're taking the piss


Sorry to be pedantic but if we're defending our national identity let's do so with correct spelling ;)

Sam, you've missed out "we've" instead of "weve" ;)
