A month or two ago I was reading an article by one economist who suggested that the natural place for the $A was around 68 cents and it would drop back to that eventually.

What surprises me is that we haven't heard much yet from the tourism industry or the miners - those guys must be bleeding big time.

Here where I live the number of backpackers coming into town certainly seems to have declined.
