(True story, i took in 2k in old £10 notes that were moldy as they were found in the bathroom and had got wet with condensation, it was when customers were clearing out a relatives home, what made them look behind the mirror I will never know)

And there was me thinking that the usual way for £10 notes to be next to mirrors was for them to be rolled up first....

I was given an old pre-2007 £20 note a couple of weeks back. The automated machine at Halifax wouldn't take it but the cashier had no issue with paying it in.

0.99 + 0.95 postage is not less than a pound. Even if you take into account the cost of postage and an envelope, it's still a 50% markup. Which is evident by the combined postage "For combined purchaces please add 50p per item onto the highest postal charge"
