Any of you guys use any of these terms? I hadn't heard of a lot of them, but thought that 'gambling from a Melvin to a Browny only to end up with an Alan in safecash' would sound pretty funny in the pub. :)

I particularly liked £25 as a Spitroast, as it's two Ayrtons and a Lady... :)

I call £25 an 'm' after the famous motorway.

When I used to go round with the infamous Pinstripe he used to call £125 an intercity based on the train service which used to run.

(a brown one)
a purple one
a pink one

like most of us, i get rid of £5 notes (pigeons) as soon as i can.

the coin is defined by the year; gipsy gold being the most treasured.
