**** Update - 12:30pm ****
Sorry guys, short lived!
Just read the bank of England shortcut the UK's GDP, so within 10 minutes of the announcement, 1 cent was lost! U look at the miniute by minute Forex trade and it dropped sharp after that announcement!! Grrrrrrrrrrrrr !

I was reading that there was some news due out of the US tomorrow that could affect the rate. I may buy some tomorrow morning as 1.44 is better than earlier this month.

I think, it will rebound, and it will go upto $1.50 minimum by at least April...
Got nothing to back that thought, just a hunch.

Well the experts make it all up, so no harm in anyone else giving it a go too!

Someone's a bit of a buzzkill:

I can't say that I've stayed at a hotel that liberally advertises escorts.

What a bitter and sad woman.

Also, prostitution is illegal in Las Vegas, so she needs to get her facts straight before publishing. Very poor journalism.

I want to know where that woman stayed...I cannot think of any hotel that fits all the parameters she describes, so I think she's just making stuff up.

That article is naff. I do understand some peoples criticism of Vegas, and appreciate its not for everyone but it seemed almost fictional.

We go MIA next week. Don't recall having significant problems there before but I'm aware it can be a pain. I'm hoping the new machines will help. I got from landing to outside in less than 30minutes when I used them at SFO a few months ago

FWIW, it was around 1 hour from leaving the plane to being "out"

It did feel longer as we had to queue for the machine, then queue for the immigration officer, then queue to get through customs with our luggage. All very odd but quick enough to be tolerable (IMO)
