Indeed - I compare that to the pain of visting Europe and the UK in 2007 and it does make me wonder. Could be that grabbing some pounds and Euros now is not a bad idea at all....

OMG

When we went to WDW in April of this year the US$:STG exchange rate was $2.05 = £1 today it's $1.56 = £1

The Exchange rate works for us though my wife is already talking about loooking for antique's on Portebello road!

Hey Andrew good news for you! We are not going to be neighbors! A first for my family, they put us on the other side of the ship!

You now have my permision to party hardy in the suite!

Well, I don't understand what the pound info means, but it sounds like good news to us. Of course, by then, who knows........give us up-to-date Izzi, since your close to the pulse of it.

Hope all is well around the world, it's gotten quite cool around here.......

That is VERY good for us. I may have to go order some GBP and Euros from my bank. IT will help to average out the 85GBP I have leftover from this past summer.

For us, on this side of the pond, we want a lower $$ to GBP ratio for things to be much cheaper for us. When we start hearing the Brits cheer they can come here cheaply we want to start crying.

Ex: This summer our hotel room was 115GBP, converts to $235.75. If we use the rate that Izzi just posted we would be paying $179.40. That's a huge savings for us, $56.35. That buys a whole lotta chocolate and biscuits in London.

Haven't seen that kind of rate since the late 90's or so.

Wow, your wife could have a lot of fun on Portobello Rd. if the rate stays the same or similiar.

I just had a horrible thought with these exchange rates, I could have saved a bunch of money if I had waited and ordered 'Henry' now instead of in the beginning of the year. But then my house would have not been livable if I didn't have a vacuum for that long.

Hey we used to have a Henry, now we've got a Meile. Can't you get Henry's over there ??

There's 1 place in Chicago that sells Henry and they didn't have the turbo model that I wanted. I found a place in the UK that could get me the turbo model in the voltage fitted for the US AND would ship to the US. They had to put in a special order to the company for it, but they got it for us.
I my Henry!

Now that is something that I do know, and actually have a pack of them sitting on my counter. I like them, but DH really likes them.
