    How about Aviva reneging on the inherited estate handout then? More profligate excrescences.

    But I feel so inadequate and unable to deal with these situations. Just fodder for the Rich Mans game. Twas ever thus.

    It's money plundered off previous generations which doesn't belong to them.

    Our SnowMan poster was intelligent, kind, witty and charming, to be thought to be him is a compliment. :D

    Tibbledom what's the score with the Bank of Ireland, do you think it is likely to collapse. :eek:

    Not sure haven't really been following the story. :confused:

    I had some money in AIB but moved it out in October.

    The trouble with the Irish banks and the Irish guarantee is that it is so extensive a guarantee that it is unaffordable in the worst case scenario, and also when it runs out there will perhaps be a rush to take money out.

    Thought from your classic "armageddon out of here" :rotfl: post you had moved your money out or was that just AIB?
