Whenever the £ is heading south, I use the following chant before checking the rate -
'Come on pound, turn it round'

If everybody does the same I reckon we will start to see it move back up

This seems to be the reason guys:

LONDON, April 16 (Reuters) - Sterling fell against the dollar on Thursday, pulling back from sharp gains overnight as weaker-than-expected Chinese growth and poor U.S. industrial production data renewed fears about the global economy.

Figures showing China's weakest quarterly growth on record [nPEK237287] encouraged investors to turn away from riskier currencies such as sterling.

don't get me started on the bacon. you're correct that it's all sh1te.
was in NZ with an american colleague. he was very disturbed by the bacon there. it was the same as we get here.
his comment was "this isn't bacon, this is ham!"

I've been to Florida about 8 times Neil and never had a decent piece of toast there. All the bread was like Nimble/Slimcea sh1te. First thing I always do when I get home is have a bacon butty on Warburtons extra thick toast......mmmmmmmmmm
