Bad geography!

I just went to the bank to try and sort out some holiday currency. I was aware it was a slightly complicated order, because I needed a large amount of Euros as well as some smaller amounts of Hungarian Forints and Slovak Koruna.

The girl working at the counter would benefit from a few lessons in Geography. Fair enough, I don’t expect her to know the currency of Hungary, but after I’ve told her that it’s forints, I don’t expect to be contradicted and told that actually it’s Euros. Erm, no. It isn’t. Really. (more…)
