What? No Martin :money: ??? :rotfl:

I voted for Churchill, but having seen others have voted for Thatcher I want to change my vote to Blair now to cancel them out!

I take it Robert Burns is already on a Scottish note? (I've been away a WHILE!)

The only reason I'd be pleased to see Thatcher on a note is because they end up being incinerated!

Are we assuming Bank of England or can it be any Brit?

Gordon Ramsey is Scottish, Geldof is Irish, so I assume any Brit.

Gingham_Ribbon

Isn't Geldof from Eire? So British or Irish?

Apparently that's why Thatcher refused to give him a knighthood.

Yes he is (Irish), so I suppose anyone from the British Isles is eligible.

Gingham_Ribbon

I'm confused... Is he from Northern Ireland?

Can we have one WITHOUT the queen on it?

Edit: DOH I get you now - sorry!
