I blinked and missed it
While busy filling in my executive day chatting with Ceri about the size of worms I missed the dollar going to 43p
Havent seen that for a while, hope it holds out till I hit Oxford Street in 13 days and eight hours

... Hopefully I will go home when the dollar is strong , the house has doubled again , Britain has crashed.
Cheers
P.s the best way to shop is on the credit card... they give you a fair exchange rate in my past experience.

I made a duff move leaving my cash in the UK, but then again these things tend to be fairly cyclic. I suspect with more rate rises predicted over here the trend for a strong AUD will continue for a while yet. I reckon we'll get to 2.20 to the pound before things come back again.
I could live with that.

I wonder if anyone could provide a link to a graph showing the £ against the AU$ over the last few years. Be interesting to see if there is a pattern.
