One time I bent down to pick up a 10 cent piece outside a shop,and it was glued to the ground,I glanced in to the shop and a lot of blokes were having a great laugh at my expense,I still blush years later remembering that,and early on this year we had a really huge Summer wind,a very unpleasant day,I was walking along a main road and a $20 note was picked up by the wind and blowing right towards me.There was a line of cars waiting for the lights to change and I thought it might be some kind of joke so I didn`t go out of my way to catch it, in case some smarties were sitting in a car laughing,but had second thoughts and followed it all the way back down the pavement,and just at that minute where the wind had dropped,the lights changed to 'walk" and I watched as someone crossed from the other side got to it before me. Oh well back to picking up 5 cent pieces,and there`s plenty of them about. When i was a little girl growing up in Glasgow I had a recurrent dream where i was walking along the road picking up pennies and haipennies,a lovely dream,i would wake up with my hands clenched,but empty!.These days I occassionally have the same dream but it`s now $50 notes. Got to move with the times even in dreams that we have no control over.
