Jodrell Bank for £1.

Howard and I are quite taken by the idea of buying one of the banks for, say, around a pound. Does anyone know if it would need to be a Euro nowadays? We would like to know before we go in and make a fool of ourselves offering the wrong currency, seeing as we would be actually in a bank, and they might look a bit unfavourably on people who are confused about what sort of currency you have to use. This is only just in case there are any other people trying to buy the same bank, and it's not just a done deal before we even go in, like they're actually sitting behind the door waiting with their fingers crossed for someone like us to come in and offer to buy it and it's not going to matter whatever currency we're going to offer.
In Part '2' of my question, does anyone know which bank it would be best to buy? I do not want any poets to say 'Jodrell'.

you can DEFINITELY use any currency you like because its a bank you see they'll take anything - theyre desparate!
The best bank by far to buy would be a river bank. Hope this helps

how about a piggy bank?

mark and howard said...

both of these ideas are good. we shall be taking our final decision later on today sometime and it will probably be a mixture of river and piggy that we'll be going for. you will both be getting a goodwill dividend for your helpful blogging.

as its somewhere between the two would that make it a rigger bank?

mark and howard said...

yes it would, jammy. that's actually not a bad name for a bank is it? like it sounds like 'rigour', which sounds reassuring. Thanks for bringing that out.
