Ah, this is my Big Mac Economic Theory - the real judge of a currency's worth is how much you pay for a medium Big Mac Meal.
In Australia, you'll pay around AUD $5 - which works out at USD $2.50 roughly. When I was in England I was paying around GBP 4, which meant I was paying around AUD $12 dollars. Anyone idiot enough to pay $12 Australian dollars for a meal the quality of a Big Mac is a few stubbies short of a six-pack (to use a colloquialism). And yet that's what they pay over there because they earn a comparable amount. In Australia we tend to forget that our food prices are in fact incredibly good.
If I could be paid in GBP and still live in Australia, I'd do it like a shot.
