hi jen..


I know! gutted!! we had our request for our bond the same time as you....and since then, its been a nightmare on the exchange rate.......in the end, we just had to go with it ........

...anyway, sent bond off about 10 days ago - and got visa yesterday, so its real quick once bond is received.

Lets just hope the rate gets better soon for the rest of our dosh!

No crystal ball I'm afraid :cry:

It is very hard to forecast the rate.The only safe bet is to make a forward exchange with one of the currency companies.

We were very lucky in 98/99/00 the rates were ridiculous.They peaked at $2.89!!
