I know it's a bit sad but I always keep an eye on the exchange rate before going to the US. I figure that if I'm going to change a couple of thousand pound then that's an extra $50 for every 5 cent drop in the value of the dollar for each thousand. That would almost pay for my pal mickey for my youngest daughter. Anyway back to the point, I don't know if you've noticed but the dollar has dropped recently and was being offered at between $1.736 - $1.715 to the £ at the retail bureau de change. The even better news is it dropped on the commercial market again today, so it is probably worth keeping an eye on if you need some currency over the next few weeks. By my calculation there should be a 1 cent improvement in the rate tommorow, pretty good considering it has been as low as $1.67 in the past month. For info the best rate today was available at Crown Exchange and Thomas Exchange. I've not used these companies in the past but would be intrested if anybody had. Thanks
