[QUOTE="thaivic, post: 893610, member: 23991"]Heigh-ho clinker A great piece if research. You obviously have a) plenty of time on your hands, b) no friends and c) no life. I'M ONLY JOKING. I've just spent about a year of my spare time helping someone to update a website for the sheer love of coin and banknote collecting. Just did a quick search through the banknotes on the World Paper Money catalogs and came up with 83 references to horses. Okay, a lot of them are repeats and I did exclude the reference to a "horseshoe shaped window" but did include sea-horses and mythical (unicorns). The one that gave me a laugh was the reverse of the Hungarian 100 forint note (1984-1993 series). The scene is described as "Took refuge from the storm". My wife's name is Took and the only refuge from a storm connected with her is when [B]I[/B] get out of the house. Which prompts me to sign off now and spend some time with the few friends I have. Keep up the good work on informing, educating and intriguiging. Vic[/QUOTE]
