MoogleViper Posted December 28, 2008 Posted December 28, 2008 Liking your country isn't nationalistic. Thinking your country is better than all other countries for no apparent reason is nationalistic. (Right?) I agree with that. But England is actually better than most other countries though so that isn't nationalistic.

The fish Posted December 30, 2008 Posted December 30, 2008 Exchange rate hit €1 = £0.98 today One thing I like about all this talk of the Euro is that it gives me that chance to pronounce it in the style of Dixon Bainbridge: "one hundred urr-roh!"
Pyxis Posted December 30, 2008 Posted December 30, 2008 Went to order my foreign currency today and had to order more than I could afford for this month. I'm losing £350 with the current exchange rate... Could have bought a new bike with that. It will only get worse so Im not going to risk ordering it any later. Im buying USD travellers cheques, so if the USD gets weaker than it currently is, I'm going to be furious. Has anybody noticed the constant increases in prices on Yes Asia? The actual USD price is going up on the products Im after. The price for one TV series was $79.99 when I ordered it a couple of weeks ago and now it's $98.99.. I ordered another DVD boxset a couple of months ago and it was $58.99 and its gone up to $67. It's much cheaper to buy Western TV series boxsets now, when you used to be able to get a boxset from Yes Asia for around £20.
