Have you spent all your old fivers?

Ana

Yes you would have to go a bank , building society and I think the Post Office.

I told my friend today and she said she had some stuffed in a pillow in her airing cupboard in case she need cash.

Plenty to spend on chocolate then!

I've just checked, Jamila. Still the zloty - phew!

They are. We've been to Krakow and Gdansk and loved them both. Looks as if Warsaw might be on the cards!

Are they still using the zloty or euros now Maggie?

you could bring back some Cadbury's chocolate

Zlotys? Are they Polish currency Maggie?

I've just had a rummage and found a stash of zlotys. A good excuse to book another little city break, I think!

Felt like you had thousands when you had a ten bob note, didn't you!

Oh! A ten bob note, I used to get one of those for my birthday ( such riches!)
When one of my Grandma's died, a whole load of white fivers were found in her wardrobe, by that time not legal tender, even the banks didn't want them.
I must ferret about in all my handbags to check on any old fivers and pound coins.

I've got an old 10 bob note that I've been hanging on to for decades. It's such a lovely looking note; really looks as though it's worth something, unlike the new fiver that looks like an escapee from a Monopoly set.

I have found some francs in the drawer
and some markka

I don't think I have any tucked away but I will check all pockets and purses!!

Thanks POGS, if I find a bunch of fivers I will treat all of GN to or [or both]

(sorry, 5th May)

I haven't had an old one for ages, but surely the banks would change them for you even after 6th May?

Actually, POGS I didn't know until I saw a notice on a bus this morning! Must have a look in GS's money boxes and take them to the bank. They should carry on changing them after 5th May I would have thought. Sad; I hate the plastic ones.
