I'm sure some psychology student could write a very interesting paper titled something like "The Contents Of Wallets As A Window To The Soul"! Thanks Neil! :)

Lots of pie shops but that not really the same! <strong>John:</strong> Ha ha, you're thinking of Yorkshiremen! And those tickets are train tickets for my occassional trips to Leeds, so in a way you could think of them as currency.

And what are those unidentified mysterious orange and green ticket-like items underneath item 3? Some sort of futuristic currency?

You must be joking... we'll now, there's an idea for a business, then. Surely a little rain shouldn't stop people from enjoying an ice cream cone! No ice cream shops?!

Sounds like you have a much more interesting purse than my wallet! I particularly like the idea of being a frequent shopper at an ice cream shop - we don't get those here unfortunately, probably as a result of the lack of sunshine! Ha ha!

Looks like you are a sentimental type with all those photos, love notes, and money from all over. "What's in your wallet?" lol...sounds like a credit card commercial. Hmmm..lemme check here. In my purse, I've got lip stick, some foundation, a pen, loose papers, my broken i-pod (don't ask), and my wallet (which includes, canadian cash, business cards, old receipts (same as you in that department), prescription drug card, debit card, health card, student card, points cards (of various types), my license, coupons for various city restaurants and entertainment venues, and frequent shopper stamp cards for an ice cream shop and "adult" shop. Oh dear, what does that say about me? Well, I'm not sentimental, I guess. :) Heh, cute post, John.
