"Forgive the mess" Warren just put everything into cash reads the caption of the New Yorker
Cartoon . and there is a large
pile of coins lying mountain high on the floor of the lobby of their very elegant house . with disturbed people standing around looking down at the pile of cash, mountain high, lying on the floor.
Well, fact is stranger than fiction, and the other day I caught my usual Blue Bus and the seats were all taken so I made my way stoically to the back of the bus to take the back seat but I could not sit down . guess what ... someone had left a pile of cash in coins all over the back seat and stuck the coins into the cushions making it impossible for me to enjoy my five pound ride in and out of town . I could not complain to the driver as she was busy with other pasengers so I had to sit sideways on away from the pile and having had whoopee cushions on my seat and saw the effects of back injury in my fellow professionals I was keen to clear a space for myself so I picked up a pound in two 50 p pieces and considered for a moment that it was fake coin anyway or it was US money or foreign coins from where I work .. Turkey! I sat there dreaming about what I could do with a million pound coins as I certainly couldnt take them off the bus .. and the seat was totally vandalized, by the coins. However, a man got in took all the coins out of the seat and put them in his bag .. could he use those coins? The Bank said No they dont accept coins and the Post Office wont either and the bus driver wont accept ten pound notes.
I spoke to a Police Officer and she said take the one pound to the bank and keep it .. I did .. in for a penny in for a pound .. nice work from the New
Yorker ...
