Yeah it is poor.  But some of my income from shares is in Sterling, so I'm enjoying it, but others like our friends (ex pats) are finding it rough when their US pensions come out short.

I noticed that the $ -> Euro is not looking that good either.  I just read on CNN about the enquiry on the state of Iraq's economy of oil, and where the money has gone.  It looks like the US has the burden to rebuild Iraq.  But the Iraq government is not doing its bit.  100 billion a year is quite a sum of money.

Once that gets sorted maybe the dollar will get stronger and arcade cabs will get more expensive.   ;D

On the brighter side: I'm doing everything in my power to improve the US trade balance by ordering parts for prices that keep getting lower and lower for me :)

I am even considering another holiday in the US if it keeps like this.... :D
