Stalker was reading in late September that currency traders were laying a lot of bets against sterling.
The trend seemed to be that it was weakening against the dollar. As we near the end of October the British currency is trading at €1.20 against the euro.

Good news for mushroom exports from Ireland for sure.
And sterling has fared stronger against the dollar recently too.
