This guy sees a new machine outside the post office, and noticed a couple of blokes walk up to it, insert a coin, put their nether regions against it, then walk away with a smile. Great idea he thinks. Puts coins in the slot, todger up to the machine. He is assailed with an agonising pain, and looks down to see a blue button sewn neatly on the end... Andy |

Maybe it is holding on to them because it thinks they are dodgy. Further investigation found where the 3rd key that came with it went. The lock is above where the money pays out. The whole front of the machine lifts up like a car bonnet and there is a hopper that collects the pound coins. It appears that all coins other than pound coins drop to the bottom two collection boxes and the top hopper is the one used for paying out.The machine seems to only pay out in pound coins. Furthermore there is a sticker on the hopper saying that the float has been increased to £250 as a note changing device has been installed. This was obviously removed when the machine was taken out of service. The machine has obviously had a full refurb before been sold and takes all new coins from 5p to £2. -- Adam |
