If the RM also prints foreign currency, I feel we need a list of suitable
forenames for those who might be working there.
To start off:
Penny, Bob, Tuppence, Mark or Marx, Florrens, Frank, Buck, Dollaris,
Tenner, Fiver (well, it’s good enough for bunnies).

Sorry, I don’t know what came over me then, but I had better not get
Centimental over it.

I'll stop there. I'm not sure using a crossword dictionary is all that
fair really. But further suggestions available in confidence for just
one Rose-Noble per character.
