I've checked on the Royal Mint site and I can pay them £5 in 5p coins, £5 in

Small minded, petty, mean & shallow it may be - but I'm going to do it

Dave, suggest you call up the local press and tell them the story and
explain that you will pay the fine magically.
Then go to the office with a journalist present and produce bank notes
and coins etc from various impossible locations.
Bit of publicity for both your businesses.
But I would suggest you should pay in full, you will look good, the
council looks bad.

Now that *is* a good idea.
