Yeah, I've seen some different numbers on our exchange rate list where
big ones supposed to be recently. :-) It seems to me that Australians
are using push carts for money, because Australian Dollar is now on
the same level as German Marks, but Germans has 1000 Marks bank-notes
(that one with Grimms) and the biggest Australian note worth just 100
Dollars. :-)
The funny thing is that Australians has this problem and our currency
problem is to keep exchange rates on appropriate levels from the other
side. Our currency has skyrocketed to the skies and our exporting
companies cries on daily basis. :-)
