Apparently, the UK has now overtaken the US and has the highest nominal GDP per head of any major economy. We're now exceeded only by a few fairly small countries in north-west Europe (largest: the Netherlands; richest: Luxembourg) and by Qatar.

Of course, a fair amount of this is that the pound is rather over-valued, and you can still buy more for the average per capita GDP in the US than in the UK.

Well, it seems to be sliding nicely against the Euro, so I guess that it's just sliding at the same rate as the USD.

Now might be a good time to up sticks and move...
