Doris, If you pay by credit card you don't have to worry about currency conversions. Crista

Doris, this is Colin in Jarrahdale, Western Australia. I sent Genes Reconnected and Friends Reunited cheques which simply stated the fees in "pounds sterling". Some weeks later, I noticed these amounts appearing on my bank statement in equivalent Australian dollars. In both cases the cheques were written using my normal cheque book. No problem whatsoever. I think one went through as $12 and the other as about $14.
