Cautionary tale
 
My initial thought process for this comp was "Money down the drain" and I had intended to float my boats down a gutter to a drain (This was before my London based daughter supplied a variety of smart name carrier bags) Anyhow I clearly wasn't going to make paper boats out of real money so I popped a £20 on my Epson to make a copy:- it printed half the note and the a web address about forgeries. I tried scanning it and it refused point blank with more reference to forgeries. I eventually got round the problem by making a fairly random pattern out of 6 notes upside down, back to front etc, photographing them and then printing the image at 2 per page - it still wouldn't do 1 image per page. Today's copiers are obviously smarter than they look although I haven't yet had a visitation from the police so fortunately they don't go that far :eek:

That's amazing and something I had never heard of before.

Nigel G.....wow, never heard of that before,I'll have to try it! to see what happens.

btw, liked your effort for the comp.

Ade G 22-01-15 20:41

Nigel did you know you can get paper napkins which have £10 & £20 notes printed on (Thats what I thought you'd used)

Well done Clive, a clever composite summed up the task very cleverly.

I had to put mine in even though it was taken on my phone. Just made me laugh all the way home. Wonder if they sold it?
