I remember as a kid
collecting the copper coins
in an old tea caddy
Ten penny chocolate drops
your average spend
for a little lads pocket
sweets switched for comic books
saving enamel for copper
and a weeks reading funnies
Hello Mister Twenty Pence
Farewell Mr Pound Note
Miss Shiny Pound has Arrived
Gold Coins saved for Blue Notes
Blue Notes saved for Orange Notes
Orange Notes saved for Purple Notes
Plastic for Paper ? A Surprise indeed
Silver shines in the plastic interior
Value reflected in a fancy Hologram
All kept in my little Post Box!

Kept mine in a Pottery Owl for a while, then two lighthouses – bought specifically for holding my pocket money! 🙂
