You may get a better rate changing your holiday money in advance at e.g the Post Office.
NB: some f-ex agencies advertise "No Commission".
Invariably, they deduct commission before they (don't) advertise the rate.
Foreign exchange offices are businesses, not charities.

--- Quote ---Landlords forced to allow tenants to have pets

Tenants will soon have a legal right to keep pets in rented homes, forcing landlords to house four-legged companions in their rental properties.

Government proposals expected to be announced tomorrow will bring an end to buy-to-let investors placing blanket bans on pets in their lets.

The new rules will be included in the Renters Reform Bill white paper due to be published this week, which will also abolish so-called “no fault” Section 21 evictions.
