The pound will certainly buy more value in the UK than Aus at the moment.

Re: financial changes-worth it?
Funny that because we were having a clear out the other day, of all the financial type paperwork, we had hung onto for a few years and found a bank statement from the UK in 2006 and our gas and electricity standing orders were a LOT more expensive than we remembered them.
I pay a bloody fortune here for electricity but it looks like I was paying a bloody fortune in the UK as well.

Electricity - 91.3%
Gas - 52.1%
But that was only up to July 2008!!!

Having moved into a new house with no gas just electric we are supposed to have a all singing dancing economical heating source pump - economical my arse.
Our bills are much higher now than they were split between gas and electric...
Gas is set to rise though I hear by 18% cheerful news as we approach August and summer is soon to end :$
I'm sure they'll continue to hike the bills here, maybe some freaky goverment to freeze people thru winter here :$
