Default Barclays needed a loan

Saw this on the Beeb website, thought it was funny and
deserved a wider audience. Perhaps I should offer to lend them the coppers in my daughter's piggybank.

I've been having a look on the housepricecrash.com forum recently, and they're using things like this as a sign of a massive economic crash this Autumn - bigger than the Great Depression!

I know they're known for being doom mongers, but it's got me a tad worried!

Oh well - at least it's Friday.

Dear Mr Barclays,

I'm sorry to inform you that at this moment in time we are unable to extend your overdraft.

Yours Sincerly

To be honest Helen I wouldn't worry bout that your pic would suggest you have more pressing issues! Did you pass ure test riding like that? I guess it eliminates the need for "Lifesavers"
