  • Hi there

    This is my first post but have been lurking for a long time. Really enjoyed the excitment of you guys watching the $ and IM you've introduced me to someone I've had never heard of before - Jason Mraz - and I love his "We sing, We dance, We steal things"

    Anyway off to Florida, 4 weeks today and have been putting off buying some dollars til things improved slightly. Got some from M&S today for 1.4144. Not quite the $2 - £1 I got last year but never mind!

    Keep up the good work you guys, I'm sure you've an army of followers now, even if they stay hidden.:T

    hey fiona, glad you enjoy the banter - its all good natured, but informative at the same time (i hope) :confused:
    wish you could have got a better rate than 1.41, but hey, at least you have Jason to listen to!!

    he is performing at Hammersmith in london tomorrow, but sadly I couldn't get a ticket :rolleyes:

    looks like there is a bit of momentum building up for the Pound this month, lets hope we can hang onto the positive vibes, and maybe you can buy a few more at a better rate....
