Exchange Rates

I use a little gadget on my Vista side bar which constantly shows me the latest rate for the Dollar against the Pound. It's normally hovering around $1.95-$1.97 to the Pound, and has even been as high as $2 to £1 not too long ago. However right now, it's $1.872 to the Pound meaning the strong Pound is finally falling against the Dollar. This does not make for such good deals when it comes to buying stuff abroad, I can only hope that it increases again before I go to FC and this isn't a permanent drop.

What I should be interested in right now however is the Euro to the Pound as I'm going to Germany in less than 2 weeks now. Right now it's €1.253 to the pound which currently seems to be the highest it's been for a month so certainly looks like the time to buy Euros.

Video Games Live London 2008

Looks like Video Games Live London tickets have become available today (or near enough as I check fairly regularily). It's on Friday October 24th at both 4pm and 8pm at the Royal Festival Hall. That's 2 performances in the same evening. So, who's interested in going and which performance?

I personally think the 4pm would be better for me so I don't have to make a swift exit to get home after the show.
