It is about time they started to recognise who put the G in Britain.

BTW Peter, at one time I wouldn't leave the house with at least 10 of those, or the value of such in my pocket, nowadays it isn't safe to go out with a fiver. Besides that, the moths have eaten all mine years ago.

I used to be the same when I was trading, now it's unsafe, not because of thugs but the boys in blue.

If they catch you with that ammount all sorts of difficult questions will be asked !!
You will find it a distinct help… if you know and look as if you know what you are doing. (IRS training manual)

Pfffft!  I have no use for coinage of the realm. :med:

My boss gives money to the bank and the bank gives it to the missus and when I need some I petition her!

If I want to buy anything I use the plastic, personal or business and I have had my checque book so long I think it is strill ruled up in l.s.d. ****
