Well, I'm still not impressed by these bits of plastic. My biggest gripe is that they don't fold and fit in my back pocket like paper ones.

Being from one of the lands down under I remember the plastic money. The notes are good as they don't rip like the paper money we have and they have a longer life so that has to be a win/win.

A bit of money history in the lead up to the first plastic bank note: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-36047863

I just wish I'd got a few from Operation Bernhard. - They seem to be changing hands at a good premium these days.

Yep, they're really collectable apparently.

What, the white ones?

All those old £5 notes might be worth quite a bit now, Rebbonk!

Our money has been 'plastic' for years :)

I think I'd better start getting rid of what I've stashed under the mattress.

Looks like we'll start getting plastic money next autumn: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-34127544
