Just an item that might be of interest (or not). A firm in a sub district of Bolton (my home town) is the only place in the world to produce the polymer for the Bank of England banknotes. They have just announced that the new £20 note (due out in 2020) will have J.M.W.Turner on it's reverse. Being a staunch Jane Austen and J.M.W fan, I may be about to be decried for having good taste..😆
