They must think we where born yesterday...
We brought bikes with us but if we hadn't I'd be importing, like many discretionary/luxury goods here bikes here seem to be marked up massively.

retailers have been coining it in with overseas purchased goods over the last year or so and still raising prices with inflation up!

Hopefully the chickens will soon come to roost big time on the greedy retailers

Re: 1.93's A$ to the Pound!!!
Smug? Not at. It's a lot more than just my holiday spending money that's been affected by the pound's slump. You're worrying about how your luxury spending's going to be affected by a small fluctuation while this last couple of years I've had to watch my lifes savings being decimated. And you accuse me of being smug? I wish if I could be smug.
