Old coins

I've had an 8 pint Bells whisky bottle for coins in my bedroom for years, only emptied it about a fortnight ago there was £138 in it, well a bit more but my daughter took it to the ASDA coin machine think they take about 2% for their trouble, so its not worth the hassle emptying the bottle and bagging the money yourself
Well you could go and buy yourself another 8 pints of Bells with that and still have a bit of cash left over. Not bad.
 
We sometimes go to the Buck Inn in Paythorne for a meal. It is a big pub with a small well stocked bar. He has the largest display of malt whiskies in the area . On tuesday nights he has whiskey tasting sessions. If you can tell 5 malts you win a bottle of Malt of the Month.
I've heard of that place myself but never been, don't supose I ever will now:(
 
Here's a thought, get yourself sets of Euro's for Greece, Italy, Spain, Portugal & possibly Ireland, so when they come crashing out of the Euro & return to their original coinage, you could be onto a collectors item at some point in the future. ;)

If they come crashing out of the Euro, we might have to spend um if we have any:D

Jim and Maureen Park, hell that is a long time ago, about as old as mine, got mine of Eric the landlord of the Tree around the same time, the last time I saw Maureen Park she was a nurse on the eye ward at the old BRI

I have kept some of the old Lira -but then they were never worth much anyway!

Life seemed better before the Euro when I had a few millions in my bank account ;):D
