Is there a legal limit when they are written out?
I have noticed ccbill checks say void after 160 days (or somthing like that, while others from other firms say void after 60 days.
I have never seen this on UK checks.
i was told as a kid that u.k. cheques are valid for 6 months

makes sense.
being boring, the other say they were talking about money. the bank of england hired people to sign money, untill they just printed the singiture. i just found it interesting.
Ya aussie cheques don't print it on them, but they are only vailid for12 months.

I am not sure what the law is in the uk.
but i would guess that there must be a time limit on checks.
i just think about this when i am standing in the bank q to pay them in. i start reading everything on them. and i always notice that voide statment printed on usa checks. not sure if they do the same thing with canadian checks too.
i found some cheques recently from 18 months / 2 years ago ... not much, maybe not even a hundred quid .... debated whether I should try and get them reissued or not ... :gaylords:

is that true?
yes
the first notes were fully hand written
then they were printed, but persanly sighned. the lower rank tellers could only sign the cheaper notes. while the senior ones signed the more expensive ones.
they had there signitures in a book.
but these were the early days of money and the bank of england. i do not think many people would have notes, just coins. there would not be that many items that cost £5. Lets face it, a house would have cost £100 (which is interesting, as thats how much a house costs today in whales).
So I do not think many notes would have needed signing.
is that true?
Would have to be - early bank notes were handwritten ... ergo they would have been signed by the banks cashier..

you can still hand write cheques, all they need is the account number, amount, date and signature, you can write them on any bit of paper you find

prolly should take stories of 'my wife always wants it doggie style' with a grain of salt then.
and some apple sauce.

Trading a pig for a wife is OK dude.
Trade a wife for a pig and that's a whole different ball game. :gaylords:

Depends on the wife.
I have seen some real horrors near me.
I would choose a pet pig over them any day (and no, not for sex, dirty minded people).

friend of mine had a pig farm back in the day .. and have to say it was the smelliest foulest place i've ever encountered.
He must have had 300+ pigs - fuck me just think of the wives he could have traded them for :Penis

Did he look 'odd'.
I have noticed pig farmers do look 'odd'.
They remind me of that film 'diliverance' (I think thats the one anyway) where the two odd bods chase the 3 campers in the canadian woods. With the classic line, 'sqweel like a pig'. Anyway, pig farmers remind me of those two.
Often I see them, and wonder if there parents were both borther and sister.
