Re: Leisurely Scribbles (part 5)

Tidying up the old shed yesterday I came across an old tin tea caddy half filled with old pennies, there were a few tanners and three penny bits along with some halfpennies and two farthings. Can you imagine that if you carried around £1 in farthings you would have 960 of then in your pocket! They were about the same size a British penny today.
Street beggars had to be made of sterner stuff back then, I believe their begging caps were steel lined.
We used to have lovely coinage before decimalisation, native animals depicted from the farthing upwards in value.





My granny had an old joke from the time Britain ruled here.
“Why is the queens head on a stamp?”
“Because if her arse was on it nobody would lick it”

Pennies from Hell.

How fast things can change for an old man like me
A far cry from how they were in 1963
We carried about big brown pennies, coppers huge and round
Imagine it, 240 of them just to make up one pound

Then came decimalisation, it had us all in a sweat
100 tiny pennies for a pound is all you would get
We were confused and felt a bit cheated
And resigned to the fact that LSD was finally defeated

Just when things came right with the money bureau
Along comes another change in the shape of the Euro
Now we were really upset and slightly deranged
I’m glad I’ll be dead the next time our money is changed.

Now that's what I call covering all bases, that type of currency "should" theoretically, pass the eye of the needle test.
