    Aw! I am so pleased for you, Neil! Congratulations.

    Still in Florida, but a bit homesick. Home on Sunday, probably one more visit to ATM.

    Thanks :)
    I've just booked 5 days in Florida (Feb 9 - 13). A little break before junior appears. Flying to Orlando. Will drive down to West Palm Beach.

    Looking like a good week for the GBP.
    Rate has gone up from 1.545 to 1.585!

    Congrats on your good news.

    Do we reckon the rate will continue climbing?
