In before Steed.

The World thanks you (Steed) for your contribution. We promise not to spend it all in one place.

I can loan you Steed's Credit Card, if you're interested. I'm pretty sure he said it was okay to use it.

Steed won't mind. He knows what it's worth and has been giving it away for years.

Monopoly money at a strip club?


Need to try that one out and see what happens.

Maybe you could give out IOUs.

(Off topic)

The picture above made me remember a hilarious situation where my nephew was involved.

He was only 5-6 years old when it happened.

He was with his father doing some shopping,. Suddenly he was gone and my brother-in-law couldn't find him. He found him a few minutes later.

He was standing at one of the(payline or what you call it) with some candy and was trying to pay it with monopoly money.

Perhaps I could send him an email directly posing as Robert Mugabe. I'm sure he'd spare a quid or two for his old mate Bob.

Nice to see the government "finding" a spare £40bn for those lovely people at the IMF.
