For those of you planning on going to the Clan Gathering in Edinburgh on the weekend of July 25th and 26th some information you will find interesting.
Money, money, money…
Just in case any of you missed it last time, With the dollar growing in strength against the pound we thought we might make a few helpful comparisons for you. Back in January 2007 the exchange rate was $2 to £1, jumping forward to January 2009 and Scotland is now 25% cheaper for US tourists with an exchange rate of $1.50 to £1. This is of course great news for those you looking to dine out in style during your stay in Edinburgh. The superb Malmaison in iconic Leith use to charge $150 dollars for a three course dinner for two including wine, however Gathering 2009 visitors will only be spending $112.50 for the same night out in today’s climate. It doesn’t take a very canny Scotsman to work out that is great value! www.malmaison-edinburgh.co.uk
