    Fluctuations

    Filipino walked into a London bank with 7,500 pesos, was given £90. He said "Last week I got £100"
    "Fluctuations" was the reply.
    "Fluct you bankers too"

    ... or, let's say their respective roles were reversed, and the Londoner walked into a Philippines' bank with the same amount in sterling - only to receive a similar response, along with the latest market value in Filipino currency. D'you suppose HIS [the Londoner's] retort would've been: "FluctuaSIans!"?
