Campus is full of ducks again. This makes me happy, in a very Tony Soprano-esque sort of way. Natwest seems to delight in jerking us around regarding our loan application – which so far has taken close to two weeks now. They say they are being “responsible lenders”. I say they don’t want to lend out money while the interest rates are so low and they’re stalling as much as they can. If they say no, I’m taking my business elsewhere. As in, closing all my accounts and giving them the big two-finger salute. Most UK banks are sitting on a cubic butt-load of government money which, in theory, they are supposed to give out to try and re-stimulate the economy. They’re like greedy three year-olds. MINE! MINE! MINE!
I hate banks.
So, in the meantime, I feed the ducks and try not to stress too much.
