Fred Goodwin in BTL Scandal

If that doesn't get thanked I'm going off to the Moneysavers.

What?

You want a story with a link?

Um, some paper might have said something about Fred being involved with BTL or perhaps someone said it, or maybe I just dreamt it.


But he is / was a banker. And BTL's smell. So thank me.

    :rotfl: Not a chance mewbs!

    Still, I reckon you might clock around 25 thanks within the next 24 hours from the usual Goodwin and BTL haters, regardless.

    I've been Money Tipped!
    Mewbie I want to thank you, you know I do, I' one of your biggest fans, but the thing is....even I, trying as hard as I can to follow in the tradition handed down to me by NDG cannot bring myself to thank it. I'm sorry though, if that helps. :)

    No it doesn't. But I think I am learning a valuable lesson about thankyou grubbing. If this carries on though I may need to acquire some self thanking Id's.
