Bank notes

Timely reminder about the old £10 note. 

I must admit I don't really think much about banknotes although I quite like the new UK ones as they seem more compact. The only other bank notes I come across recently are Euros. Mind when we did a tour of Europe in 1992 we needed six different currencies but can't say I was in favour of one over the other.

Hate  &  Detest  these  blasted  new  £5 & £10  notes,  so  slippery  that  the  shop  keepers  can  whip  em  out  of  my  hands  in  micro  seconds  !!

Seriously ( for a moment )  I  do  find  that  when  receiving  mixed  change,  I  now  prefer  coins  first  then  notes,  'cos  when  the  other  way  round  the  coins  have  an  increased  tendency  to  slide  off  on  to  the  floor !  Probably  'cos  the  notes  don't  wrinkle  as  they  used  to.

That's how I like to receive change 'ABM', coins in the palm first  then close thumb and forefinger onto the note(s) while hand is gently closing.

Simple 'ey

Beggar the notes & the coins-debit card, contactless cash point. . . .Bosh, jobs a gud un. No notes to lose, no coins to drop & no time wasted👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻😊

 Watch Out !! ,,,The new notes can attract static !! I've found them stuck to the insides of my pockets !! ( NO ,,not an excuse to cough up)

You  try  buying  a  choccy  ice  where  i  go  --  They'll  not  buy  it  !!

When they first came out, I used to hate them too, but quite like them now.  They fit snugly into the back slot of my phone case - the old notes are too big so had to fold them.  The new ones are just the right size.

I buy a pack of gum with my card Muscles, where do you go?, back to the 1920’s😂😂

No,  just  to  that  nice  musical  van  chap  who  pops  round  here  when  its  'Home Time'  for  the  school  kids 

Yes I like the new 5 and 10 pound notes - smaller and apparently come OK out of a washing machine 

We spent a summer in Peru in the early 90s they were changing over to the Sol from the inti and I have a 1 million inti banknote!
