I'm actually from Lancashire Simon, I got a government grant to come to Yorkshire. It was a government sponsored attempt to improve the humour gene pool in the county, alas it failed.  :)

Talking of pound notes, I used to be able to show a lady a good time out on a Ten Bob note. And that included a fish and chip supper on the way home.  :)x

For your information, there were two Ten Bob notes to the Pound.

Rik:
And nowadays, you'd get little change for one when you bought a Mars bar. ;)

Rik:
This is true, Cammy. :)

I do actually remember them, vaguely.  Brown, weren't they?

Just out of curiosity, was there the same emotive outcry over decimalisation, that there is over losing the pound to the Euro?  Stupid name, by the way, Euro.
