Pocket change

[classic33]

Not the same, but I do also get foreign coins every so often, and I even found an Irish 10 Punt note blowing down the street one day.

I keep them all (and if its Euros, I sometimes take it on holiday with me to spend. If I remember that is, although its usually only 1 and 2 cent pieces anyway, so hardly worth it).

Irish £10(Punt) note are, for some reason being forged, over here. So what you have may just be a fake of a note that is no longer in circulation. Only other questions are what colour is it & who's on the note. Swift or Joyce?

This was just when they changed to the Euro, so most certainly not recent. At least I think its a tenner, it might be 5, but its brown and had a picture of some educator on it, a woman I think. I'll need to dig it out

Irish fivers were brown, not Blue

I do my best to minimise the pocket change, and very carefully organise my monetary transactions to minimise the number of coins that remain in my wallet. ...

Oh good, not just me then!

You can clearly see that £5 is printed on it. So its not a £10 note. Just because its brown!

Err, yes, I made what is technically called a 'mistake'.

Comes from having to hide/avoid discovery.

Oh you have never lived Classic, you have NEVER LIVED!!

Besides, I never said the note was blue either (you did, although it does have some blue bits on it, I agree).
