Lalalalala! Make it stop

You're not lalalalalala-ing loud enough. I don't think the markets can hear you. Maybe they are lalalallalala-ing themselves. Hmm, competition ....!

Praying never helped either.

Tourist rate is 1.5234 on the BBC.

Yes, was up a nicely earlier though contracting a bit now. I'm just glad the freefall seems to have stopped.

Just relieved you have made peace with it for the time being. I have started using you as a barometer on this thread

Waiting for Disneymad's reaction to test whether this is good enough or not

Im just praying for it to climb rapidly before I hear if Ive passed ROFR and have to pay.

TBH I think 1.50 is a good rate. For almost a year now, as well as most of last year and the latter part of 2008, it has been in the 1.40's and even lower at times. I reckon if you can get yourself some of it at 1.50 you are not doing too badly. How much time do you have?

Its been 17 or 18 days now since we put it to disney for ROFR, although I have priced it for $1.50 I was hoping to get nearer the $1.60

Hows the money markets today.

 

[Disneymad]

It's down at the moment, not sob-worthy down or down more than it went up yesterday though. US markets open soon so will see if that does anything.

 

[2Tiggies]

FairFX is at 1.5375 at the moment. Not too shabby, I don't think.
