Well this news should help the 50baht plus to materialise, 'not on your nelly'

Number 2's interesting:

Well the rate has been holding up nicely, thank you, and let us hope it continues with the Euro under such pressure

I once made the mistake of buying a computer in Europe with a Franco-Belgium keyboard that had a whole row of those letters with hats on and a € key but no £.

The TT buying rate ie the rate you get when you transfer sterling to your Thai Baht account ( also at ATM machines) was 50.221 at the Siam Commercial Bank a few minutes ago - yet more improvement.

I was delighted yesterday when I transferred a considerable amount of money (for house and car purchase) yesterday, and the bank (Kasikorn) phoned me to say that I was getting 50Baht to the Pound. That's a 5% increase since I arrived in Thailand under 2 months ago :D

Heard the the £ was the best of the worst at the moment!
