What will the expression become if you go to the euro?

Ran across a post today in which "IMO" was used, not once, not twice, but three times. We know it's your opinion. Nobody's going to be all that offended, state your opinions with some confidence.

Well, Soph.
That's better than IMHO, for as H-I said it:

Well that is quite a big "If" but considering the inflation in many of the Euroland countries ....... it will probably be "my eurosworth" ...... in reality, I imagine we will still say ten pennorth ..... for a long time. After all my father took a good 25 years to adapt to decimal currency. Also I expect that people would start to refer to euros as quids.... and cents as pence regardless of what it says on the coins...especially since we use "plastic money" increasingly. Of course children who do use coins and have never known anything else will look at there elders either as hopelessly backward or amusingly quaint...... but then there is always something which will inspire these opinions ....so no change there :P
