As I'm a newbie on here I possibly didn't get a chance to introduce myself to one or two major contributors to the forum :(

I'm sorry I missed you, Dean; I always fail to recognise some of the people I should.  Somehow I even missed seeing John Grimshaw, although he must have been close behind me in the queue.
Almost in Scotland.

You're not alone Alan, I'm rubbish and always forgetting faces, can get quite embarrassing  :-[

I'm just staggered at how many people view the photos in such a short time.  I'm even more staggered that 57 people have looked at a photo of two twenty pound notes. Has no one wondered whose they were?

At least 57 of us have -  we're trying to see if  we recognise the fingers  8) 
Which is pretty daft, especially in my case, since I haven't met most of you face to face! :-\ ;D

Crikey I'd have been looking at the twenties! The fingers belong to a forum member and I can tell you whose pocket the money went into but wasn't quick enough to catch that.
