Is this a real sign the recession is here?
I can't remember the last time an ATM let you have tenners.

The Science Bit
UnaRocks does not UPLOAD music. All music links provided are ones that already exist online, or mp3s from band and record label websites. If you are in a band / band management and wish me to remove any of these links, I will, of course, oblige. UnaRocks believes that music sharing actively enriches our musical climate. Music sharing is as old as music itself. People who download music buy more records, go to more gigs, and buy more music merchandise than those who do not. The recent phenomonan of online music sharing has been credited to the ongoing resurgance in the live music scene across our world, and the increasing successes of 'indie' or 'underground' bands. In turn, if you are in a band / band management and wish me to post a link to a song for the pleasure of the readers of UnaRocks, please do not hesitate to contact me by commenting on this blog. Peace.

That's actually a great little piece of social observation there... very interesting.
On another note, in Paris, ATM's have to be fully stocked in all notes and when you ask for, say, €40, you'll generally get one €20 and two €10 notes. Quite considerate.
Was it the ATM on Dame Street perchance? Cause the same thing happened to me!
It was the one opposite the Sugar Club on Leeson St.
This is fairly common if you're using an ATM of the bank your account is with.
@cw: is it? I'm with AIB and never get tenners from AIB machines. The ATM I used last night was Ulster Bank, I think.
I LOVE LOVE when you get tenners. Has happened me once or twice lately...you can give the money back to people you owe(cause of the recession like) without needing to ask for change.
I took out e100 last week (oooh Money Bags!) and it all came in tenners too. When the ATMs start spouting fivers, THAT'S when you know we're all f*cked!
When we're all running 'round with wheelbarrows full of 500quid notes. THAT'S when we're all fucked.
One of the pound shops in Dalston has re-branded itself the 98p shop. That's when I felt the cold chill of an economic downturn.
@ gardenhead: tru dat, but I don't think we're going to go all Zimbabwe just yet
@ Deesies: do you know what, that IS a total sign of the credit crunchsies!
I hope more €1 shops open instead of €2 shops. I love them so much. So full of tat, even though the Aquafresh I buy there sometimes won't come out of the tube. SO ANNOYING.
