For bigger sums, it would be better to pay for CHAPS same day transfer or special cheque presentation, rather than walk around with that much cash.
I don't disagree, but in my case, I work in Canary Wharf, and moving cash from one bank to another is literally walking five to ten steps from one branch to another, they're all so clustered together, so I don't really mind the risk...It's always the grass that suffers, irrespective of whether the elephants are fighting or making love !!!0
