I'm coming to change my dollars with you Lyn.....they all have a different value don't they? I will bring $1 dollar notes and tell you that they are $100 notes! Yes, that should work out nicely!!

We don't call them notes, Ron.  We call them bills.  $1 bill, $10 bill, etc.  However the $100 bill is AKA a C-Note.  That's the only one I've ever heard referred to as a note.  By the way I have to type Alt 0163 to get the £ into my typing.  Do you have to use a special character for $?

diana,

the british coins all feel different too.  i have some of the old half pennies.

Lyn, i have some dust bunnies if you want some......but you have to come and colllect them!

i had been collecting david winter cottages before they stopped making them.  i also have a small collection of cats that were made in scotland.  had a hard time finding them in more recent years though.  think it was called shoebox or something.  i also have crystal animals, and PLENTY of junk!

Hi Roses:

I know the feeling.  I don't collect anything anymore.  I didn't even buy any souvenirs while we were over there, because I just don't have room for anything else.  I have a crystal "bluebird of happiness" that my Aunt Ann gave me many years ago.

I've decided to start a collection, any proceeds gratefully accepted but I'm only collecting paper ones not the metal type Wink, so if you have any spare please donate to me as I have to pay my Electricity bill, Council Tax, Water Rates, get some petrol and a few other minor things like food LOL
