Money is melting away...

In Canada at least.  In what is proving a headache for the country's central bankers, including Mark Carney, who recently joined the Bank of England, newly issued plastic notes have attracted criticism due to their stickiness, faults with the design, and, the fact they seem to melt under high temperatures.

Australians have a long experience of using plastic notes - the ones you can wash, but they had better hope that the Aussie doesn't follow the Loonie and fall prone to melting away! (here).
