      Don't really see the point. Not many establishments accept fifties, unless this new one is less easy to counterfeit?

      Maybe it's a ruse to trace drugsters as these new ones have a tracker in the metal strip.
      Feist - 1234. One camera, one take, no editing. Superb. How they did it

          viz top tip: throwing the butler on the fire whenever you need heating not only has the benefit of feeling that little bit extra extra smug in your contractor lifestyle but also ensures a healthy turnaround of staff to ensure you never have to learn their names...

              500 euro notes can't be exchanged in the UK - so much for single market!

                This is more like it:

                    I use 'em to light the gold-plated crack pipe. Obviously only when I'm economising.
