Estonia officially adopts the euro. From midnight last night this small Baltic state became the 17Th country to do so.Official celebrations were held in the capital Tallinn as the state acknowledged the changeover. The kroon and the Euro will circulate together as legal tender for the next two weeks.Estonia will be the clubs poorest member but it seems its debts are among the lowest in the bloc. We wait and see.

andy you may be right, whilst they are the first ex soviet state to do so and met the criteria. Mrs Merkel has warned of tough times ahead for the euro. I remember being in Ireland when armed guards were bring the Euros in, the celebrations that followed. Now look. Happy new year to you xxx
