For any one who has freeview.
On page 240 it shows the pound rates
NOT the "tourist rate" but the "pound rate" and the pound has been climbing steadily over the past few weeks against all other currencies.
Just a thought/tip if you may be going on holiday outside of the U.K.

Hopefully it will go on until after Christmas.

I did notice that we are away at the moment you receive more Euros to the pound.

I keep a rough check on the rates in the paper, and assumed that the pound going up was a sign that the markets think the Tories are going to win the election. sad
