What could you put in it these days that is worth the bother anyway - perhaps Krugerrands. What could you buy for a handful of coins?

Steve NordRunner Nov 2022 11:09am, 29 Nov 2022 2,295 posts	Quote Pin Steve NordRunner Looking at it, Jen HB, yours seems to be one from Birmingham, whilst mine is some kind of less impressive rip-off, which I actually bought in Norway maybe 20 years ago. It originally came with accessories in baby colours: two sets of a little hat and scarf in either light blue or pink, possibly suggesting use as a christening present or similar.

I'm smiling because I got an out of the blue message from an events company that I worked with as part of a rugby club thing back in the summer for a one off weekend, asking if I'd be available to work for them again this week (I'm not, unfortunately). It's heartwarming to know that they would want me back.
