He is looking more and more lizard-like all the time.

That is sad. She is my age.

I loved his humour. He was pretty widely known here in Canada. Sorry to see him go.

I'd rather have the tea and biscuits.

I had forgotten I was in on this. If anyone wins what is the prize? A year's supply of tea and biscuits?

And enjoying it immensely!!

Phil might be a goner .........

It's going to test that stiff upper lip .....

Edward VIII abdicated before his coins were put out into circulation. No idea if they had been minted by the time he abdicated.

Can't answer definitively but there were George VI coins around in the 60s. I still find the odd George VI coin in my change now and then here in Canada. I found a George V nickel a couple of years ago. Now **that** was surprising.

Don't they put them out just after the coronation? I'm sure a coin portrait is waiting in the wings and they must update it every few years.
