Silly Site o' the Day

Okay, not "silly" so much as "cool," but I wanted to note that I've been wanting local currency to appear around our parts since forever 'cause I like the idea, but the nearest one we have is in Ithaca at least four hours north of here. Well, now we'll be able to trade in local currency the next time we visit Robin's Dad, as the Lewes Pound made its debut last week. Of interest to Americans is that the note features Thomas Paine. Of interest to me is that the local brewery, Harveys, has brought out a special ale in celebration. Hope Rob's Dad can get us some local quid before they're sold out.
