Would You Really Need A Suitcase To Carry A...

...million in €uros? Surely a briefcase would be big enough to carry 2000 five hundred Euro notes.

[Tilly2]

I'd like to be able to give it a go.

[gness]

Oh dear, Sandy...what are you up to? ;-)
Let us know if you need help with the bail money.

[sandra4444]

If i told you that i might have the police knocking on the door:)

[sandyRoe]

Befriend a prince from the Middle East and he might bring a bag of money for you to pass on to your favourite charity.

[Spicerack]

There'll be more to this than meets the eye, Tilly. Mark my words.

[gness]

Not Fortnum and Mason bags, Sandy.... :-)

[Spicerack]

Bingo!

[Tilly2]

It must have been very heavy.

[Buenchico]

Getting hold of 2000 €500 notes might not actually be that easy, as production of them ceased three years ago.

[sandyRoe]

The bottom could fall out of a Fortnum & Mason bag.
M&S bags for life are more reliable.

[gness]

I shall bear that in mind, Sandy, although all I have are the dollars I bought from a desperate American tourist last week.

[Tilly2]

Did you charge the despi American for the use of your loo, Gness?

[Tilly2]

That should be desperate!

[bookbinder]

Wouldn't a cheque have been more discreet? It would certainly have been easier to transport. Ah! But it wouldn't have been - er - as ostentatious, would it?

[gness]

No loo in the shop, Tilly.....have to use the one in the chipper. She fell in love with some necklaces but only had dollars. She told me the exchange rate and I exchanged them....to calm her down as much as anything.
Found out later we've made a profit for the village charity shop. May try that again.... ;-)

[Tilly2]

Good for you and the charity.

"The bottom could fall out of a Fortnum & Mason bag."

A million euro and a bottom? Sounds like somebody had their erse handed to them. :-)

[davebro]

no - it was gift to thieves, drug dealers & money launderers to introduce 500 Euro notes EU-eejits.

[Spicerack]

It's the second footman I feel sorry for.

[Tilly2]

:-) That made me laugh, Spicerack.

Yes, the lackey would be the one to carry it. (With an armed escort)
