Time Is Money
‘ITS too late to warn Lucy Pinder, who is already in France, but we hope that we can do a public service to some others thinking about taking a trip to the continent.

The Express has a story about father-of-three Graham Nicolas who went to Greece in search of sun, sea and Shirley Valentine.
Unluckily for him, before he made the trip he made an earlier jaunt to the Post Office to pick up some euros.
And its lucky he did because he needed 3,000 of them to pay his way out of a Greek jail when he was nicked for passing off counterfeit currency.
I am an innocent man who became a victim of a flawed system, says Nicolas, who faces the prospect of a lengthy sentence for fraud.
He claims that the fake notes were given to him at the Post Office. Hes adamant that hes the victim of a corrupt system and plans to fight for his freedom.
An as soon as hes posted a letter of complaint to the Post Office, and affixed the stamp with its picture of James Hewitt in profile, hell move one step closer to clearing his name.’
