A Secret Hideaway In the caravan of love

That's going backwards isn't it?

We already live in a cashless society, just that nobody will admit it.

Same with us. We very rarely use our cards, if ever.

We in N.Ireland used a plastic £5 note for about 10years to test them and they were terrible felt and sat funny and the print wore out very quickly .

Apparently there was a public consultation on this. It started in September and finished last month. Did anyone know that?

Aside from seeing it on breakfast news I had no idea.

Yeah and no problems or dramas. Can't see what all the fuss is about. And they are harder to counterfeit.

At least 15 years, from memory; they cost five times more to produce but last 20 times longer - or something like that. They're much better!!

And you don't really notice that they're plastic apart from the little transparent window. I've still got some from my last trip there.

Yes, I remember the windows now!

They last so much longer & hardly ever rip; I've one ½ of a £20 note in a drawer, hoping that the other half will show up soon!!
