Really? When I went to Egypt literally everything from street vendors was 1 pound / 1 Dollar / 1 Euro. They must have had some way of changing them. I would think Turkey's not so different. 

Same but it was a long time ago, wasn't sure if it was a myth or not

I also take it the tenner on the door has stopped but I'll Google that

You can't change foreign coins anywhere, so unless you are tipping in notes...

They save them until they have enough coins to exchange for a note with a tourist. I remember chatting to a cleaner in Egypt about it years ago.

That was one of the songs I was thinking of, but only the toys/noise bit, I’d completely eradicated the plasticine/trampoline line from my memory.

Appalling song. The first non NG song on any of their albums. The start of the decline!

What happened to all those petrol bombs they were making in Ukraine? I don't think they were ever used. Hope. They're being stored carefully. 

I think they're stored safely in the outside cushion sheds.

They’re being saved to rebuild Ukraine, they’ll be worth an absolute fortune now.

Why they’ve never brought back Generation Game. I watched an old Brucey episode from the 90s on YouTube a few days ago and it was brilliant. Genuinely smiling and laughing throughout. Saturday evening TV is just awful now.

They did do it a year or two back with Mel and Sue and it went down like a fart in a lift from what I remember.
