...put coins or notes of different denominations next to each other and feels awkward if they touch each other? Be it in your wallet or in a pile on your bookcase? Just me then?
Not me. Got an old ice cream tub and just let those babies pile up on top of one another until I get to count them. And then its wohoo I am £10 richer lol
Actually I can allow them to touch, but only after they've been arranged properly - coins have to be in strict size (not value) order: £2 coins, 50p pieces, 2p, 10p, £1, 20p, 1p then 5p. Notes in my wallet have to be the right way round and are arranged in descending value order from back to front. Am I weird?:&
Yes Actually when I have a load of change in my hand i arrange it in a pyramid according to size We're both freaks
I do that too. Notes go in my wallet the right way up, smallest in front (value and size wise, since the lower value notes are smaller than the larger value ones). When I have coins in my hand for a bus fee, I have them with the tails side facing up. Sometimes when I'm bored while waiting for the bus, which is practically every night now the bastards at Arriva have stopped running the 134 at 2205, I take the year from the two coins and try to work out the year that is exactly in between them.
Yeah, in Ponte they are. I was waiting for the bus once, and it came to the station...and just drove right past! And Metro/whoever runs the trains here are no better...I was waiting in an unmanned station once for a train to arrive, when the tannoy system announced that the train was cancelled and a coach would be arriving shortly. So I headed over to the station entrance as instructed. About five minutes later, still waiting, I turn back to see my train driving out of the station. No tannoy announcement or any clue that the train was back on after all. Bastards...
The trains here aren't too bad. Loughborough station only has 2 and a half platforms so it's pretty easy to run from one end to the other
Well I question them all about their religious beliefs - the Roman Catholic Pax Christi fivers seem to rub along with the Quaker tenners, but the Episcopalian, Pentecostal and Baptist notes just don't seem to see eye to eye. I had a Jesuit £50 note once, but it just burnt a hole to hell in my pocket. Most of my small change seems to be Anglican\CoE - in theory there's lot of them, but in practice you can never find them when it matters and I certainly wouldn't count on them. Some of my more recent notes and coins have told me they contain high percentages of re-cycled material and they therefore regard themselves as born-again. Arned with this insight I intend to quiz the jar of foreign coins that we as a family have accumulated over the years - more as a result of dodgy change than any Moomin family globe trotting. We definately have a Jehovah's Witness Irish 50p piece that we've been trying to get rid of for years - in fact I was certain we left it behind last time we moved - but no, it keeps turning up like a bad penny and tells us we must save more!
queer. everytime i get given new money, like anytime i buy anything, i have to arrange my money into piles with the coppers in the same section and the same shaped coins together and they must all be in year order facing the same way and this could all be disrupted by the shinyness of each individual coin.
i was having a discusion a week or so ago aboutdiffrent denominations mixing. an i think people are surprised to find out that all denominations of christianity are not rivals in any way, diffrent denominations can work together to be a comunity of christians, i duno about u lot but there where ppl who where surprised to see this. as for the coins issue i think that we should all go on blue peter and we should publicaly on tellivision mix our coins up, be the pounds, euros, dollars...or any of thoes other curencies that foren ppl make up. and we should tur all our notes upsidedown, and we should topple our fashist pyramids, and this will be symbolic of peace between nations. ...even though i could cause some confusion if you want to buy somthing.
Lol i do this too, it's my dads fault he used to do it too, it doesn't matter if they become disorganised in a purse or whatever but when i take them out i have to do it. I guess this makes me a freak too.
