http://www.express.co.uk/posts/view/6595 This Brit doesn't. This Brit would like the banks to occasionally pull their finger out, pull the tatty stuff from circulation and release some new notes. -- Roger Hunt |

It used to be that paper money turned in to a bank would be destroyed, thus
keeping the money almost always fresh.

The real problem is that cashpoints do not issue 5-pound notes, so new ones do not get issued so readily. There is a perceived shortage of these notes, and so they probably do not get paid in to banks as often as the 10 and 20's do, thus continuing in circulation scrumpled into the pocket or purse! -- Tony Clayton Coins of the UK : http://www.coins-of-the-uk.co.uk Sent using RISCOS on an Acorn Strong Arm RiscPC ....
