The Lovely 10p AGAIN
I had no money in my wallet, so when I was in Tesco this morning I bought my breakfast (cake) with my debit card and asked for cash back. I thought 20pounds would do me nicely - and as I needed some money for the shower and that is 10p, I asked for a total of £20.10p.
You should have seen the hoo har at the till.
What is it with the world... I left with £20 and no 10p.

I used to work at the Royal Engineers Museum with Beverley, whose husband was an artist. Every day he'd set out into the Medway marshes to paint. When they were first married, as a preliminary to the day's work he'd go to the bank and withdraw something like five shillings to buy lunch as he didn't like to carry cash. Eventually the bank wrote to her to persuade him to take a whole week's worth of lunch money out at once, but he was very reluctant.
everytime i get 10p change i think of you now, Bones!
