Eurozone in London

Why does this annoy me?

From Friday, people visiting Kingly Court, behind the world famous Carnaby Street, will be able to use euros as well as pounds.

I mean, these shopkeepers can take whatever they want in exchange for their goods; monopoly money for instance. Or pig fat. Or blankets and whiskey. But freaking Euros! Please.

Next week: A small pub in Bedford ratifies the EU constitution.
