    :) I was going to suggest the £1 coin Collectors Album, with them being withdrawn this year, but no stock.
    So how about the £2 Coin album?

    My boss informed me that the round £1 coins won't be legal tender from October and the previous £5 notes won't be from May. Also a new tenner will begin circulation from June. Just in case you wanted to know :rotfl:

    TM, that's what I did to link my card -- I googled and found a link I think. I hope everyone is sorted for Viking and Nectar now? I've been out tonight so sorry I wasn't able to help.

    I think they are sexist :)
    For a poor bloke who keeps his notes loose in his pocket, they are too easy to slide out.
