IF you are travelling with a TO, definitely book your passes now. We have just booked Milky Way and paid £150 ish for the area pass. The same pass currently offered on their websites is 180 Euros - a saving of alt least £25.

Basically all TOs have pre purchased lift passes in the summer at a far better exchange rate.

That combined with the fact I have got a great late deal from bournemouth has softened the blow of having to travel with a TO!

Roll on the 11th Jan!

I think committing yourself to denial for the period of your holiday is the best plan. Avoid any attempt to convert the amount into pounds; oh lunch is 15 la la la la la las... better make some sandwiches...

One good thing to come of it. The visa gift cards I sent my daughters in the UK are worth 25% more than they were a while back :-)

Can anyone remember back to 92/93. I seem to remember the dollar being at 1.29 to the pound. When I look on sites that have records going back that far, they show it to have been a low for the pound of 1.48 dollars. I remember thinking at the time, that if it went a little further, we would have parity in the currencies. Is my memory failing me ?.
