Man, I hate the stuff. It feels like Tyvek home wrap and has a tendency for the bills to stick together when they are not busy sliding around. They switched our bank notes over to polymer a few years ago. Your bank should be able to get you foreign currency.

We started getting the £5 note recently. Its caused some moaning as the bank of England uses tallow from animals.

A basic explanation resides here.

That's crazy. I have vegetarian relatives in the U.K. I wonder if they are trying to go cashless.
I wish they did that here so our notes wouldn't stick or slide around. Oddly enough the change over to polymer bank notes started during the term of Mark Carney as Governor of The Bank of Canada and who is presently the Governor of the Bank of England. I wonder if that is just a coincidence?

Interesting perhaps he has an interest in the company that makes them?
