Go Banana's !!

Has anyone noticed the rate today ? I do hope it doesn't drop back to the 2.3 levels.

I guess it is the markets response to the US interest rate announcement yesterday :lecture: unless anyone has a better idea ?

Please please please stay above 2.5 as we travel in 2 weeks !!

Hi
Yes I am starting to panic about rates they got up to 2.69 last week and now are low 2.60s. I havent got my visa so cant even think about booking currency. I hope they rise though. Have you not booked some currency? There are a lot of companies out there.

It is something you cant control, so dont worry about it.

It was only a couple of months ago it was about 2.32.

Seeing as we arent going for at least 5 weeks, I dont bother checking it. Some say `you lose loads of dosh`. if you didnt have it in the first place, you cant have lost it!!

DONT!!!!!

You will only get ya knickers in a twist if it starts to drop.

Same thing happens with the lottery. i stopped doing it about 4 years ago as I had never even won a tenner. Used to do the same numbers week after week, costing me a fiver a week.

But what if ya numbers come up every one screamed at me. I dont even check what the numbers are. Dont even notice it!!!

Go Banana's !!

Snap !! Jill has me doing the lottery every week !! Funny how she is never the one to stump up the £2 each time I go and buy the ticket though !!

same here.
I did birthdays, door numbers and ages!!! sad that I am.

So as the kids got older I had to do more. Couldnt just change the ticket to the `new age` as what if the old `ages` come up.
I worked out that if I carried on, I would be paying a bloody fortune each week.

So i just stopped doing it!!

This is pretty muchwhat the money people are predicting

If the American Dollar situation remains as is I guess it will return to around AUD $2.3 =£1
Its something that you have no control over so why worry?

We just changed when we had too (asked for bond request), it just happened to be a good rate. Funny though, hubby wanted to change that minute, but I delayed and it went down slightly overnight.

So many what if's in this emigration game.... as well as a few if only's

The whole thing reminds me of the old Chinese curse:-

'May you live in interesting times'

:scared:

Still, we're all risk takers aren't we? Or we wouldn't be doing this!

Good Luck with the timing of everything
