Value of the GBP

[notalot]

I gave a present of £50 as a wedding present in 2008. What would I need to give this year to give the equivalent real value?

RPI Index in March 2008 was 212.10. This March it was 232.50, an increase of about 10%. So this year needs to be £55.

Thanks, LesD. Glad someone is good with figures.

I though it quite amusing that the thread is about value of the pound by notalot - says it all really!!!
