In Dharamshala with english coins to change!

Hi All

I am a month into my trip and in my backpack I still have about 9 pounds of english coins. Seeing as I will not be home for 18 months I really wanna change it with a fellow English traveller who may be going home sooner. I thought they would change coins here in India but alas only notes.

I will be in Dharamshala until Wednesday/Thursday, then Agra, Darjeeling, Varanasi, Goa and Mumbai.

Can anyone help? I just wanna get rid of them!

come on!

20 people have viewed this so someone out there must have been interested! I am just an English guy wanting to get rid of my UK currency with another Brit or anyone else going to London.

Six hours and no reply? What is the world coming to?

But seriously: There must be hundreds of Brits in Dharamsala (and Delhi, and Agra, and Varanasi, and everywhere else), so it shouldn't be a problem.

In that case, why not just give them to a charitable organisation in Dharamsala, or a street kid or a beggar?
