Just looked at the exchange rate and it is loads better than I have seen it in a long time. Will probably be crap again by the time I have some money to change

Could be even better, its all one big gamble
I changed some money a while ago thinking the rate was good at the time, a week later it went up again and I would have got $5k more
Its a mine field and very scary and frustrating.

What the hell its only money

We are due to complete on our UK house sale next Friday, I hope it stays up that long.

I remember when we were waiting for our $100k bond request. If we had been braver and converted our GBP to AUD earlier, our $100k would have cost us about GBP1600 less

Hope the rate stays high for you, it can make such a difference particularly when you are exchanging a large amount of money can't it. We only change small amounts at the moment but when our house sale completes we will have a substantial amount to change and I can only hope the rate is good............we will wait and see
