Have been looking at the top 20 list of the above. (Nothing better to do this morning!!) and the Lira really is amongst some right old Loo Loo's. Yet another good reason to keep local bank accounts to a minimum. At least as far as I'm concerned, others may think differently.

What were the others sophie? He asked remembering the Bong Game on Chris Tarrant's Breakfast Show on Capital FM years ago;

Tick tock, tick tock, five UK pounds,
Tick tock, tick tock, one hundred Australian Dollars,
Tick tock, tick tock, one thousand UK pounds,
Tick tock, tick tock, one thousand five hundred US Dollars,
Tick tock, tick tock, fifteen hundred billion million trillion something or other, STOP,
Congratulations you've just won £1.73p

Just Google the question. Banana republics here, there and everywhere. Million, billion, trillion most of them. E,g Columbia, Russia, Uruguay, Belarus, Ghana, Argentina, Turkmenistan to mention just a few. (the surprise to me was the Rouble)
