Where to get British Pounds

[Admiral]

In answer to my earlier suggestion that the LeClerc travel agency might do British pounds - they don't.

I asked my friend Sylvie in the agency who tells me the only place to get Anglais dosh would be one of the banks in Montmorillon provided:

a)  You have an account with them and;

b)  You pre-order well in advance.

There.  That clears that up then.

PS.  Why am I answering my own queries?    All answers on the back of a blank cheque please.
