I have just seen that the BoE is looking for suggestions for redesigned banknotes and am now idly wondering if there were a Mumsnet set, what the illustrations may be...

So far I am thinking

A chicken
A fish slice (with or without lube)
A bobble plate

No need for bank notes, just cancelled cheques.

Washing being darked on whilst spiders wipe their willies on it.

I think the penis beaker should grace the £50 note though.
