Run For Your Life!

PANIC!

Stock up on bottled water, tinned food, extra blankets & firewood. Withdraw all of your money from all banks and just RUN!!! HIDE!!! JUST.....JUST.....RUN ANYWHERE!!!!!!

Why? I don't know! Neither does anyone really, but some bank somewhere had to borrow money or something and now the queues are forming. Next it'll be all out WAR and we'd better be prepared for meltdown.

    Have you noticed on notes they always put the £ sign nearest the edge and leave enough space after the denomination to stamp a "p"...

    Change all your notes for coins NOW!!!!
