This is a British site covering a European story, why on earth isn't the fine reported in Euros, who cares how man dollars it was!

Besides which the dollar is falling so fast you'd need a dynamic update!

$1,641 is roughly £20.

30€. Assuming no one else has beaten me to that obvious one...

I'm sorry but this is ridiculous, and your 'conversions' remind me of the time I tried to use toy money to buy an ice cream as a child.

US Dollars may look more realistic than the pretend money I tried to use back then, but I'm sure you could much more than a mere $1641 for 20 quid. Shit, even the choco coins I sent my nephew and niece for Christmas only cost a fiver between them.

I suppose it all comes down to whether you want something you can play with or sweets. And if I know British kids, they'll take the sweets every time.

The conflict was about moving (not removing) a single memorial.

because the dollar is more important.

Why yes thats a nomex suit I have on. Grabs flak jacket and Kevlar hat. Calls for taxi

who cares did you see the 'years wages' no wonder they are running away form the country. BTW house prices are cheaper.

"WAS more important", my good man, not "is". Are you living in the past? ;-)

1 € = 15.64664 Estonian Kroons... which makes it € 1,118.45.

Today's £ rate is 20.9681, so the fine is equal to £ 834.60.

one of google's more useful features:

Google for: 17500EEK in eur

get Taimo's result.

@Matt - I fully agree. And when the Brits finally see the light and get the Euro, we can scrap yet another conversion.

No mention of the fine here !
