"Ditto". We did the same as well and I think there are many more out there in the exact same boat!
I try not to torture myself or 'beat myself up' over it but it is damn annoying. It caught a lot of people out including the 'FX specialists' who make their living out of it!

I suppose we were stubborn in believing that we wouldn't change at a low rate with it having been 2.37 in November. We just didn't think it would keep slipping and slipping the way it has done.

Have a look at this informative thread from Richard in HiFx. It gives you an up-to date view on the current situation if nothing else.

In the meantime if anyone out there knows of someone who has either a Time Machine or a Crystal Ball, I'd be very interested. Or.....even a Delorean like the one from 'Back To The Future' would be useful.

Here's hoping......."wait, was that a flying pig I just saw out of my window!? :-P
