Re: 1.93's A$ to the Pound!!!

I think they are probably correct as well..... still won't mean much against the Oz dollar though.

Re: 1.93's A$ to the Pound!!!

Wasn't gold around $850 an ounce in 1980... and then halved in value?

That looks like a bubble to me.

I know, but claiming you had to get straight to work because of the state of the pound really doesn't hang together.

Re: 1.93's A$ to the Pound!!!

So the pound has dropped 15% against the dollar since this thread started.

I wonder how many people are still waiting for the pound to get back to its 'proper level'?

There are rich people in Burkina Faso as well.. it means nothing.

As a nation the UK is, currently, a financial basket case.

Re: 1.93's A$ to the Pound!!!

Indeed. It's been heading the same way for a very long time. People may claim 2.2/1 as the long term average but personally I think we should be expecting 1.8/1 possible even lower, to be the new...
