Cheers, FC.
Alas! (thinking of the whisky)
Icabod! The glory (of the single malt) is departed.
I'll have to have a pint instead.

Ooh, looks like I've arrived at just the right moment

*Kes pulls a couple of s ... then a couple more - just in case*
There you go, P. Down the hatch!

(my last comment would have made more sense if I'd noticed that I was replying to a posting a while back.... therefore I haven't arrived at just the right moment. Oh well.)

*downs the hatch*

just popping in for a quick (_), anyone for ^^^^^

*Pours Ændr a (_)*
I'm game for a ^^^^^, thanks.

Mmmm, ^^^^^ and a c||_|| would be nice...

Good morning/afternoon.
What you up to? Today I'm trying to work out Natwest, and what they have against my account.
Could it be the fact that I have no money in it, I wonder?

Cheers!
Assuming that Natwest operates in the same way as any other bank, I think that could be a major factor in the problem.

They have a strange fascination of cancelling my switch card and sending me a replacement a week later. I've been given 5 switch cards in the last 6 weeks, and for 4 weeks in a row I was cardless - unable to take money out of my account, pay by switch or use cheques as the switch card is my cheque guaruntee card - and they keep sending and cancelling the cards without saying why.

It's getting annoying.

Have you thought about changing banks? There are so many other banks out there that there doesn't seem to be any reason to stay with one that messes you around...

hmm.. i'm with nat west, and i think there is a whole £10 in that account... phone them up, the people in my branch are really friendly and helpful...

hello everyone! i'm trying to have my first party. it's at my place. i didn't know the best way to get people to come. i don't know if i can throw a good party or not, but i thought i would try.

it's to celebrate everything worth celebrating and everyone is invited.

Natwest have been a great bank so far, it's just the last 6 weeks that have been annoying. You can pay cheques to cash, but the trouble is banks are never open when you want them to be.

There's always room for another party on h2g2, Indifferent. But the best way to advertise is to link to it from where you are, like this:
http://www.h2g2.com/A413975
(That goes to the party). But try to use discretion when leaving links - otherwise people'll be annoyed because of spam.

I lost my cards a while back, and had to wait for another switch card to come through... the guy behind the counter muttered something about being able to use your passport and account no as payment.... i wasnt really listening though.... that might possibly help you...

*blush* sorry to be so vague....

*BS watches the tumbleweed blow across the bar.*

Hmmm, quiet tonight, and there are conversations titled and 100, what *is* going on?

*Pours and settles in the corner.*

HELLO PEOPLE!!! i'm back! probably no one left around here that remembers me considering its been such a while! so who is around and whats the gossip and scandal?

Hi TAP How long since you've been around? I have to admit I'm pretty confused atm as the round naming convention seems to have gone up the Swanee.

Can I get you anything?

Hello TAP, it's nice to meet you. Not much time though...\smurfjuice/ please...... Ssslurp.... Thanx, I gotta run, see you around...
