Pounds stirling

Pounds stirling are the kind of currency being utilized in Great Britain until Euro Day, December 17, when the currency being used switches over to the euro. A gang of criminals, including Glass Eye, rob a train of pounds earmarked for incineration. They throw bags of pounds to the ground, where one is found by Damian. Counting out the money with his brother, Anthony, Damian learns they now have 229,370 pounds. The brothers commit to spending the money before Euro Day, but are hard-pressed to spend all of it. Damian uses money to do things like feed the hungry, while Anthony focuses on material possessions. Damian eventually becomes disillusioned with the money as he learns how preoccupied so many people are with it.
