Snippets for Visitors - Mississippi Style.


We're in the Deep South, y'all!
Alex must be one very happy bunny. Maybe those 'Tartan Day' parades down Fifth Avenue, with First Ministers in dubious kilts, have had more effect than was first realised. For the Official Visitor Guide to the State of Mississippi, under the title of 'Currency Facilities', states that the Hancock Bank will change monies from Canada, France, Switzerland, Australia, and Scotland. I'm now rumaging in my sporran for some Groats, to test this proclamation. However, given that Francs and D-Marks still appear to be in circulation maybe I shouldn't hold my breath. Or does this local bank know somthing that the ECB and the Eurozone have missed?
