Well I have to admit that the prospect of 2.70 held me off doing a deal at 2.61, how silly was I - still what's done is done! Better carry on working a bit longer lol!

Cheers for birthday wishes. Woke up to 2.2's again would have been nice at 3.2! Well, it is my birthday!

Happy birthday MrCro, you may get 3.2 next birthday?

Off to Australia 11th December Thursday 2008 Sydney/Cairns see if can find

Employment, (136 visa) now that I have been made redundant may stay depending on work! will have to keep one eye on exchange rate!

So what will make the rate go up We go in March so do I exchange now or wait

Damn and blast, we have been messed around by our buyer for 6 months waiting to exchange on our house. Until then, there was no way I would forward fix a rate. We exchanged last Friday and bingo the rate really starts to fall... So annoyed at this PIA who has made us lose out on 2.7.

I'm waiting, it can only get better!!

or go back to 2.08 its was at earlier this year?

I'm in no rush! Time is on my side with this one! Ready to go if there's a move, can sit on my hands for the time being!

Wish it would go back up soon. Looking to go in May/June now so ready to lock in a deal as soon as it goes up (hopefully!).

If only we'd been registered with ozforex/moneycorp etc when the rate hit 2.7 last time. Oh well

I'm with you! the finger is well and truly on the trigger. I would have changed during the recent spike except some greedy Icelandic b'stard wouldn't give me my money back!!

I wish there was something I could take to stop me checking the rates every bleedin' 20 minutes!!

assume it won't go up - don't look - it will - and you'll miss it!
Or as you're doing now - watch it like a hawk - nothing will move upwards at all but you'll know all about it..........

set a rate alert with likes of UKForex, when hits rate u set they email and/or text you. That way u dont have to watch 24/7 like I do, but then I like it!

I did this, then got a rate alert on Saturday for 2.82! Almost pooped my pants in excitement. Quickly realised there systems had screwed up so went and cried myself to sleep

Its a nightmare isn't it. 2.22 at the moment! ARGH!

Holy Moly, 2.22!!!

rate alert set for 2.65, look at those pigs flying past the window.....
