Pete I work in a foreign exchange and the telegraphs rates are nowhere near the rates offered in an exchange bureau, maybe they are business rates opposed to tourist rates.

Got a divi cheque from South Africa yesterday. Made me feel quite rich till I remembered the exchange rate and then a wack is taken off by the bank for processing it. Still think Sue and I have done OK with the TL.

Anyone know what the availability of the new notes is like from the banks etc in the UK?

I believe the banks in England are still handing out the old notes at the moment. Over here still seeing plenty of the old notes.

We can only obtain the new notes now, we can buy the old ones of course but are not allowed to sell them out again, they have to be returned to the bank.

Sinbad we're having no problems obtaining the new notes, the highest denomination we can get is a 50.
