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.

Well currently the dollar against the pound is in a nose dive. It's at the worst it's been in ages. Certainly a time to import from the UK as you won't get a better deal :)

And your creation intrigues me :P
