Just had this flash up on google bar:

"The UK pound has hit its highest level against the US dollar in 26 years."
"The pound rose as high as $2.066 in earlier trading, before paring gains slightly to $2.064."
My expenses are in £s. My earnings are in $. Urgh. Poker is getting harder and the as the $/hr drops so does the value of that $. Double Urgh.
