Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Business bank accounts allow you to pay in cash but they’ll often charge you above a certain limit. Cash handling is expensive, with coins particularly so (weight & security) hence banks having rules on how much can be paid in.

FDNB, that sucks. If "they" have closed it, then surely "they" have to take the hit. Seems most unfair.

We've offered people that as an option - but the offices are at least open so they have a choice.

Um (previous page), my coin jar is an old Quality Street clear plastic jar with a large screw top (a bit smaller than the jars you'd see in "traditional" sweet-shops) . I used to dump all my coins into it at the end of every day and start the next day carrying only notes and no coins. It used to take a couple of years to fill the jar but there would be a nice little windfall at the end.

However, it seems those days are gone. I now use contactless for most small purchases and also try to collect Amex / Avios points as much as possible, so I find I very rarely spend real cash money these days and as a result I'm not generating much coin-change. It will be a VERY long time before the jar is full again.

[Indeed FDNB - red weather warning for 3pm today, schools shut, universities have sent their staff home, many of my friends in private sector have been sent home - not even an announcement here about the weather warning, much less the option of being sent home. Having said that....]

The weather currently looks bad enough to justify the red weather warning we have for this afternoon.

I have not booked a half day leave so I can get home and go for a run before said weather warning takes effect.

But Dio... I often add a new row, then wonder why my stuff hasn't added up.
