Place Your Mark Here

As you’ll have seen from the earlier twitter, Anna now has her very own bank account, though getting to the Royal Bank of Scotland branch nearest to us turns out to be quite difficult when driving. Previously, we had popped in there on the way back from Swansea itself, and so did not come up against the strange one way systems you’ll find littering the area. TomTom was of no help at all really, as the maps are hopelessly out of date – you end up getting told to drive up so many one way streets. Anyway, after we finally got there (I’d throw a quick Google Maps mashup into the post to show the route we eventually took, but you’d laugh too hard, we spoke to a nice staff member, who explained the basics, and I then signed the paperwork on Anna’s behalf (no rubber stamps or inky thumbprints involved). Due to the UK interest rate being at 0.5%, banks are in the unusual position of actually offering above base-rate interest on most bank accounts – a massive 0.9% currently!
