How much "loose change" do you have lying around the house?

Close. Coco Chantelle if memory serves. Thought I'd inject a subtle nuance of ethnic minority, just to tease out any racial undercurrents you understand.
Didn't work though, they all loved me.

Aye, Mrs PL still enjoys your recipe for left over venison.

That was such a good trip out to Mumsnet.

Actually,
I am registered on there again now................if only I could remember my login details.
Might steer clear of recipe advice though, wouldn't want to offend.

I used to have about 10k in cash around the house at any time when I had the shop, but now about £200-£300

A few gold bars but not much more.

Cash? How plebian.

I never carry the stuff myself.

It can be annoying walking around with a pocket full of change on the chance you will need it, so I usually go out with only the big stuff; notes and a few pound coins. And once the coin mountain has grown large enough, I take the whole lot and give the checkout girl a nice surprise.

Is that a euphemism?

That must have put you at risk of robbery?
