Local money: an alternative measure against crisis
In Great Britain as in the United States now circulating coins and banknotes curious .... Call them local currency or complementary currencies, the cuts made to serve the industry and services in a small geographic area have decidedly the wind stern.
In the Bristol district of England, an artist won a price to re-design notes: instead of the typical visage of the queen, there is now fuzzy, psychedelic images of an androgenous face surrounded by raibow cloud and coruscating, swirling etchings.
Money is an extraordinarily emotional object.
As bitcoins, Paypal and other electronic forms of payment grow in popularity in the global economy, cash in a growing number of places: Bristol & Brixton (London, UK), Amsterdam (NL), Ithaca (US), New York ... and Calais?
Translation
Banknote ......................... billet de banque
Currency ........................... monnaie
Cut .................................... coupure
To have the wind stern .... avoir le vent en poupe
Fuzzy ............................... fou
Coruscating ...................... étincelant
Swirling ..............................ondulé
Etching ............................ gravure

Florent, it is true that this local money purpose is to encourage spending within the local community, especially with locally owned businesses which is very good.
In Boulogne sur mer it is "Bou'sol"

Re: Local money: an alternative measure against crisis
I think having a local money is fun: its a good way to encourage people to buy.
And what's more local enemployed persons can have a job designing and printing this money.
But Calais is so poor, that it's not local banknotes who are needed, but local coins!
