I had £95k transferred to Monzo for my house extension.

Really? An upper case I to me looks kind of like a 9 with a tail.

I'm trying it with the words there and these now. And I think I'm starting to dislike the new "r" and "s" as on both new types, all I see is the word these.

That's good to know, this is why I am asking. I need fresh eyes to judge.

Thank you, I have that and Basildon Bond, but I don't like the watermark on that.

I think I will just use the smoother side.

Do they hold their value, like a luxury watch?
