It's not being cynical at all Derek as you well know.... If the bank hangs onto everyones money just for a few days, they have millions (probably billions) of dollars to use for investments without it costing them a penny!

That's one reason why I only use a bank as a last resort! Most of the time my bank account is empty, and my credit card is paid as soon as I receive the statement, so they don't earn anything from my money either!

Good morning PD's.......& as Eddy says..... "probably billions" mmmmmm

Maybe 1,000,000 x the tenth power = a billion [I think :shhh]
So 1,000,000,000 to the tenth power = a tttttttttttttrillllllllllion [I think  :porkies]

50 years ago... :picknose if you needed a stat declaration ...it was to be witnessed by......

....a Doctor, a Police Officer, a JP, a Man of the Cloth, a Pharmacist or a Bank Manager

Today ..if you needed a stat declaration ...it is to be witnessed by......

....a Doctor, a Police Officer, a JP, a Man of the Cloth, or a Pharmacist

 :tongue1...we all can see the member who is now not considered a person of notoriety .....Derek
