I have a clear memory from my childhood of my grandmother visiting us in Italy from UK. She arrived fairly normal and left extremely busty!

My memory is of her stuffing high denomination italian notes into a newly acquired bra of extraordinary proportions. This was the deposit for her house that my mother gave her to take back to uk. There was a limit on how many lira one could take out of the country at the time.

With the debt spiral in full "flush down the u bend" mode, most people don't consider the concept of currency controls. Maybe it's just far too far back for many people. Just a thought.
