This is a £10 note. It's a very common form of money, even though, it isn't even really money.
The writing beneath "Bank of England" reads "I promise to pay the bearer on demand the sum of 10 punds". This means that the £10 note is not actually money, but a very intricate IOU. This is the same with any bank note of the pound sterling.
Think about it. Next time you check your wallet, and you just have notes, you don't actually have money. This may seem kind of wierd, but you'll probably end up not having to pay your share for a meal.
Today I would like to talk about vaseline on toast. Now, not very many people would think of vaseline as a food, shown by this yahoo! answers page:
Mainee: My sister fed a piece of toast with Vaseline on it to my mom? Is this harmful? I'm scared that she'll get sick. I would have stopped her, but I didn't know.Some of the replies that followed:
Why in the world would she do that? Did your mom eat the whole thing?
Please tell me your sister is in ALOT of trouble.
That is so gross! Why?? Your sister is really wierd. Is she a little kid?
I would report your sister to the cops. Thats just wrong why would she do that to your mom?
Your sister is an a******.
Et cetera.
The inventor of vaseline, Robert Chesebrough, ate a spoonful of vaseline every day and lived to be 101 years old. Eating vaseline on toast should be fine.
