    Yes..i have already started pulling cash out. I pull the max out of my ATM every day. David Cameron was seen ripping a wad of cash out of an ATM before departing for Washington. You have been warned.

    What a total load of rubbish.

    Now of course all your neigborhood yobs know you have a house full of cash so will be stripping you clean. Or your house could burn donw- then you have nothing.

    Money would have (up to 85K) been safer in Santander.

    And Dave was off to America to see Barack. Maybe he wanted to pick up some duty free on the way?- it i his money after all lol.

    How much money did B&B and northern rock savers lose? Nothing.

    This may be a silly question, but what good would £1000 of banknotes be if the banking system has collapsed?

    My husband just looked at this pic and said to my daughter " I see that and think what a weirdo, your Mummy is thinking what a legend!".

    Actually I was thinking I wish I had some shelves like that and which room could I use.

    :D

    Well I did see what looked like a couple of cans of Tenants on the floor in the middle.

    I bet they are empty cans, I thought the shelves looked a bit thin to hold all of that weight.

    Empty beer cans aren't going to be much use in the event of a financial meltdown are they?

    Edit - or should I be salvaging what I can find from our recycling?!
