Passport Update - Counting Down


It's now one week into the wait and they estimate two to three weeks before it will be returned.

The application fee put a hell of a whack on money for the month and that sucks but what doesn't suck, if you're a Brit, is going to the U.S.  The reason is that the exchange rate in pounds to dollars means your money will almost double.  The buying power of a dollar or a pound is about the same and you can tell it from the price of a bottle of Pepsi on sale, to car prices, the cost of a house, etc.  If you take £100 to America, it will magically become $160.  How about that for a cracking deal.
