I like silver and hematite. I look good in silver and hematite. The Stud says I look even better in silver and hematite and nothing else. I say I look better in a 1975 Dodge Powerwagon with a 500ci... uh... okay, shutting up.

How does money work in the UK anyway?

I am want to ask "my" Scottish Andy, whose over there in Oxford, to send me this one type of Scottish pipe, but I don't understand your money system and I don't know how to pay him for it. I am really just afraid to ask, because I am afraid it'll all end up becoming a pain in the arse. Help!!

Oh I am so jealous of you Shyguy! I admire the Dutch so much,(oh I rhyme now) for your exqusite Aquascaping talents and technologies! I mean that, very much! I am so into that stuff! I have only three tanks though, but more on the way!!!

The government produces money in the form of coin or notes, they make the money in places called The Royal Mint.

The government then tries to maintain the amount of money in the economy, and balance it's budgets at the same time, while not allowing inflation to go out of control.

When the money gets to dog eared and worn out, it is taken out of circulation and destroyed.

This is the same way that money works around the world.





EZ Sorry I could not resist this post.

Ps. G.R. you can ask or E mail if you want a real answer.

I am a chef- a personal chef that is, I go into the homes of the hungry and wealthy and in an 6-8 hour day I whip up a week's worth of delicious food.I sometimes cater also, but not as often as I would like. I also work in a linens/clothing and housewares store a few days a month. And I am a full time mommy-my work schedule allows me to basically plan playdates and classes around my clients so my son isn't in daycare and can still be homeschooled. I love silver too KM... Oh and crystalhunter celtic, heavy raw looking pieces are my favs-care to exchange for exquisitely cooked foood?

Sawwwwwwwwwwy about that I could not stop myself.

If you want to do the simplest thing, send him Dollars, he can get them changed at any Bank.

If you try and either send a check or Electronically transmit the money, the charges are quite high in proportion to the amounts you would need to send.

You could send an International Money Order that you can get at a post office, this is the cheapest method other than just sending cash (shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh they dont like you sending cash).

The exchange rate varies so you will need to find out the cost of the pipe and then send about 1 1/2 times the £(pounds) in $(Dollars) plus the postage which will be up to $15:00 for a small package.

I hope that all helps post if you need more.

First, I'm a mom. Second, I'm a wife. Third, I own my own web design company like a billion other stay-at-home moms. Of course, that means I'm also the maid, the cook, the nurse, the psychologist, the referee, the accountant, the bookkeeper, the gardener, the taxi driver, the errand girl, the girl friday, the receptionist, the operator, the drill sargeant and the catch all category of "other duties as needed." And that's just my DAY job! Nights are way more fun *grin*.
