Transferring a large sum from abroad - before GBP falls in Brexit

You may not.

The government and the banks will take the opposite view

I dont see why. And if they did then the rules would surely be much more strict than they are.

Whatever you end up putting for the reason (personal is what I normally use) just make sure you send it as GBP and don't convert to Baht in the UK before sending it.

I would say that they probably already missed the boat with the drop in the value of the GBP. It was worth 20% more a couple of years ago. There is still hope that the totally insane Brexit vote will

Trump pleads for allied warships to guard Hormuz

bannork · 21 hours ago21 hr

Donald Trump has urged Britain and other allies to send warships to the Middle East to help secure the Strait of Hormuz — a sharp reversal days after claiming the conflict with Iran was effectively over. The US president appealed directly to foreign governments to join naval patrols protecting oil tankers in the strategic waterway. The plea came as Tehran threatened attacks on shipping routes that carry a large share of the world’s crude exports. The shift marks a stark change in tone from Trump

Straits of Hormuz and Bab-el-Mandeb Closed - Impact on World Economy

connda · March 1Mar 1

Well the Islamic hating, war mongers got their collective wish as Israel and the United States declared collective war on Iran and its allies. In response Iran and Anserallah have closed the Straits of Hormuz and the Bab-el-Mandeb Straits. Economists are predicting oil prices sky-rocketing from $150 to $400 dollars a barrel and in the process, wreaking the global economy. Personally I expect that oil prices will and gas at the pump will quickly become unaffordable, and that if the war is pro

The Art of Becoming Irrelevant

123Stodg · 22 hours ago22 hr

I am not going to address anyone directly because I do not want anyone to feel like a jilted lily, but I have noticed something interesting about my own forum reading habits. For one, I read far more than I post. Often I do not even log in to scan through a few topics, and if someone averages about a dozen posts a day, I tend to skip right over anything they write. It did not start that way. At first I just noticed certain posters who write extremely long posts waffling on about their personal

Religion is no joking matter!

unblocktheplanet · yesterday at 09:17 AM1 day

Don’t make fun of anybody’s religion… they might be right! The Nation of Islam worldview was dominated by an apocalyptic and prophetic vision which held that the African American, the "original" or "Asiatic" black man, fell into a state of social domination that began with slavery.'1 This situation was a direct result of the machinations of an evil black scientist, Yakub, who grafted white people, also known as "devils," from original black people a little more than 6,000 years ago.

McDonald’s Beef Patties in Thailand, Any Good?

Kyoto Kyle · Friday at 10:31 PM1 day

I’m wondering if McDonald’s beef patties in Thailand are actually any good in terms of meat quality. I can’t remember the last time I had one here. Maybe once or twice many years ago. The reason I’m asking is because I just realized there’s a 24 hour McDonald’s within walking distance of where I’m staying now. If the patties actually taste decent, I was thinking that late one night I might buy two double cheeseburgers, or maybe two Quarter Pounders with cheese, take them home, stack all four pa
