Any of my fellow Brits slightly frustrated that we didn't get some of the great American scents in this country. I'm thinking "Bowling Green" by Geoffrey Beene, also Pinaud Clubman, and some of the bay rum scents that are discussed almost daily.

Yep. Definately the Pinaud Clubman, I'd also like to get Thayers in the UK - I think they ship to the UK but postage, customs and the weak pound make it a tad pricey.

If the pound is weak, then the dollar must be that cowering wimp crying in the corner.

I think a pound buys you $1.35(ish) at the moment - during the summer it was about $1.75 (ish). It all adds up

Not exactly, the dollar is doing ok compared to the pound (everything's relative). See here for example http://finance.yahoo.com/echarts?s=...=on;ohlcvalues=0;logscale=on;source=undefined
The pound has also been doing very badly against the Euro, much to the delight of the Europhiles
although I must admit to a certain satisfaction that the Euro has now begun tanking itself. http://uk.finance.yahoo.com/echarts?s=EURGBP=X#symbol=EURGBP=X;range=1y
I didn't realize the current exchange rates. I suppose with this "global" economy, though, everyone's hurtin'.
