I forgot to shave

Superb day out!

Problem is now i have to wear the mask / gloves for every game as they are now classed as "lucky"!

So why hasn't the £ rocketed after the UK is "out of recession"?
And I would of thought my glorious leaders "state of union" address last night might of had an effect too?

I think I know the answer to this one, but I'll ask anyway.....

Have booked a holiday to NY leaving late August and am looking to buy around £1,000 worth of USDs. Crown Currency are currently offering a great rate for delivery between April and June, see:

Do you think I should go for it?

You'll get an even better rate if you call and ask for their Cancelled Contracts rate which is currently $1.7499

Whether you should go for it is entirely up to you. Your money is at risk if anything happens to CCE. I have used them several times with no problems and the money has always arrived on the date agreed.

13:35 29Jan10 STERLING SLIDES TO DAY'S LOW VS BROADLY HIGHER DOLLAR OF $1.6084


LONDON, Jan 29 - Sterling slipped to the day's low against a broadly stronger dollar on Friday after data showed the U.S. economy expanded more than expected in the fourth quarter.

The U.S. economy grew by 5.7 percent in October-December, the quickest pace in more than six years, as businesses reduced inventories less aggressively, the U.S. Commerce Department said on Friday.
Expectations had been for 4.6 percent growth.

Sterling <GBP=D4> fell to the day's low of $1.6084 from around $1.6115 before the data was announced.

Neil? I thought we had a deal?
The rate could stay low until after your trip back to the UK as long as it rocketed afterwards!
What's happening?

You're not keeping your end of this deal up!

Not looking good is it? Struggling under the 1.60 mark is not really where we'd want it

I suppose at least it's a bit better than this time last year, although would still prefer it to be at the rate we got 2 years ago!

Just looked at the rate I got in May last year which was good at the time and it's only 1.487!!! Jeeeeez. Maybe need to think about getting a few dollars now.
