I have more confessions! Auntie knitted a his and hers Icelandic jumper for a Christmas present the first year we were married - 26 years ago. I gave them to a Romanian charity a few years ago:o And I had a beautiful Icelandic jacket which I thought was the bees knees and wore it to death even after it was fashionable:cool:

Huh, Why didn't you tell us all this stuff when you first came to this thread? we would not have let you in! I hope you don't have any more of these Icelandic confessions hidden away in your closet, next you will be telling us you used to date the Icelandic Premier and all this happened because you 'jilted' him! :eek:

Maybe there should be a prize fund started for the LAST person on MSE to receive the 2nd email? Could be a good consolation.

That'll be mine then <sob>

I've not had my second email yet either. Don't really expect one, since my ISA was funded totally from transfers in and I don't remember giving them a current account at any stage. Anyone remember whether the online ISA sign up had a linked account bit?

So I guess I'm waiting for a letter. Have we heard when paper-based applications are going out, or have I got to wait till all the internet ones are sorted?

If any of you guys'n'gals still feel "silly" about depositing money in Icesave, note that a Telegraph journalist did so and should join this thread as she ain't got her money back yet:-

so u just had an ISA and not an easy access account? after reading what you said i checked my account as i have an ISA and a easy access. my ISA was opened with a cheque and i transfered my 3600 allowance into my ISA from my easy access account. so tbh i dont know if my ISA has a current account linked to it.obviously its linked to my easy access as i did a transfer from one to the other so from this i presume they will realise its then linked to the same current account as my easy access? have you checked your account to see if it has the initiate button next to it or do they all have it even if u have to go through the paper process? great now another thing to worry about lol

Sorry, that wasn't too comforting was it? :eek:

Had the same experience with a pigeon back in the late 70's _pale_ maybe that's why I've not had my 2nd e-mail

Twice in the last two days I've had a single magpie sitting in the road ahead of me _pale_

Next time this happens you need to say "Hello Mr Magpie. How's your wife, how's your family?". By saying this you are indicating that the magpie is not alone and so no bad luck will befall you.

If you do this you should find your second email winging its way (if you excuse the pun) towards you in the very near future. :rotfl: :rotfl:
