I've just been to the corner shop and bought a load. Offered him a tenner each and the silly sod nearly bit my arm off! Too dozy to realise he was sitting on a fortune!

I'm gonna be rich!

When were they phased out? I remember the old fivers - blue and white I seem to recall, and bigger than today's twenties...

National Commercial bank of Scotland (later bought over by RBS) white fivers and blue pound notes.
My dad found a pile of them in my Grans biscuit tin or wherever when she died in the 80's. I think he kept some so no doubt i'll find them in his biscuit tin.

I remember 10 bob notes.

The Clydesdale bank started issuing the plastic fivers last year. I've seen 2, both of them i got from the bank. Everybody seems to horde them as they are definitely not in general circulation.

I use to have a white fiver had it framed.

We still have pound notes here. I have a few in my wallet now. I like them because with 20 quid's worth it looks like a fair bit of money in the wallet!
