How to check for customer group & country

Question

I'm looking to modify a cool little snippet of PHP that I found to use in my cart to show the customer how much more they have to spend to get free shipping. However, I need to add statements to it doesn't show it to customers in a particular customer group and country.

<?php if ($this->getQuote()->getSubtotal() < 50): ?>
<?php $subtotalamt = $this->getQuote()->getSubtotal(); ?>
<?php $freeshipamt = 50; ?>
<?php $sumtotal = $freeshipamt - $subtotalamt; ?>
<?php Mage::helper('checkout')->formatPrice($sumtotal); ?>
<p>You are just <span>$<?php print ($sumtotal); ?></span> 
away from earning free shipping!</p>
<?php endif ?>

I'm lost as to what I need to add to this to check for the customer group and and country.

Try the below code, it works

<?php if ($this->getQuote()->getSubtotal()<50): ?>
    <?php $subtotalamt = $this->getQuote()->getSubtotal(); ?>
    <?php $freeshipamt = 50; ?>
    <?php $sumtotal = $freeshipamt - $subtotalamt; ?>
    <?php Mage::helper('checkout')->formatPrice($sumtotal); ?>
    <?php  $loggedIn = Mage::getSingleton('customer/session')->isLoggedIn(); ?>
    <?php if($loggedIn):
                $groupId = Mage::getSingleton('customer/session')->getCustomerGroupId(); 
                $groupname = Mage::getModel('customer/group')->load($groupId)->getCustomerGroupCode();
                $shippingCountryId = $this->getQuote()->getShippingAddress()->getCountryId();
                if(($groupname != "Wholesale") && ($shippingCountryId == "US")):?>
                        <p>You are just <span>$<?php print ($sumtotal); ?></span> 
                        away from earning free shipping!</p>

                <?php endif ?>  
    <?php endif; ?>
<?php endif ?>
