How long did it take to.....

stop converting Australian Dollars to Pounds.

My hubby has said he wonders how long it will take us to stop thinking of the equivelant cost in pounds when we move to Australia, you know like you do when you go on holidays etc.

How about you guys? How long did it takes you?

All the best

I made a conscious effort not to convert back from very early on.

I think it helped that I transferred my funds over so that it was here when I arrived.

Still can't help myself when I'm trying to justify treating myself to something though, as in "well, it's only 20/50/whatever pounds" - mainly because it sounds less in sterling ;)
