I'd give you a nice, crisp, fresh £9 note for each of them...!

Andy mind you , if someone wants to give a gift its a gift/donate .This means he doesnt require money , there might be needy people out there .

No: the point is that there is no such thing as a £9 note; just as there is no such thing as a 25120 WOM - they are both hoaxes/jokes.

Which begs the question: how widespread is this April Fool/All Fools stuff?
Clearly the Americans and the British get it - but is it globally recognised?
Is it an "in joke" amongst English-speakers?

just wondering...
