Default A matter of money

Just an interesting comparison... When I last visited Canada I recall one Aussie dollar bought just under 50 US cents and a Canadian dollar bought around 70 cents (correct me if I'm wrong here)... I did an comparison today and find there's less than a cent difference between the Canadian and Aussie dollar. How things change! At least it makes it easy to compare the cost of things... must stock up on NOS parts when I visit next month!

Default Money

A mark, a yen, a buck or a pound...it makes the world go 'round.

Apologies to "The Kit Kat Klub" from "Cabaret".

Keith...you're going to visit us again?!!!


When, where, details, please...bring Vegemite, we have maple syrup.


BTW, where's my reply to the Spitfire info I sent you?

Regards from another Commonwealth member.

Sorry Jon, these days that should read "a euro, a yen, a buck or a pound...it makes the world go 'round".

Keith, at what dates will you be spending £'s? Could try to plan to hop over to London to meet!

Default Re Skag

Just trying to establish exact itinerary right now... Keefy will come to London after a day spent in TO... if you're nice to me (read: bring own beer) I'll let you come down too...

Stewart, if you're here in town (as opposed to the Excited States), you're very welcome as well... hell, anyone close by. I'll post something when arrangements are finalized.

Default Jon, perhaps...

If you're driving there we can go together to spend some quality time along the way!

Effectively, I'll be in the UK from the 15th to the 20th of Feb, flying out on the 21st. I have quite a few meetings but only one specific time so far.
Let me know what you think.
