bankers

Tuesday, January 24, 2006

went to the bank today to get me some extra cash for my excursion to
brussels. i have to go into the bank everytime i want money and
withdraw it myself, because i don't have a bank card.

i opened my bank account beginning of november; they promised a card
in three weeks. when it didn't arrive, i assumed it was being hand
crafted at barclays hq in england, before being sent to the moon for
processing and flown directly to spain via a relay of one-winged
insects.

almost three months later, they told me that my card will arrive this
week. i signed my piece of paper and asked if i could collect it
friday morning before boarding my 3 hour bus to the airport for my
flight to brussels (ryanair, i will deal with at a later date).

she thought for a little while. 'let's see, today is
tuesday...wednesday, thursday, fri...hmmm, it's possible that that
will be a little soon
.'

barclays don't open saturdays.

at what point was my card going to arrive this week, eh?

Love that bus journey! You'll have another once you get to Charleroi too, awesome.

Can you let me know your flight number and departure airport so I can work out what time I need to get you from the bus depot? Thanks x

Have a great time in Brussels!

The problem is probably with the insects seeing as only having one wing would cause them to fly in circles.

No need to thank me, I'm just glad I can help.

you are assuming the insects would be flying, in which case you are quite correct, tim.

however, did i mention that they were flying mini-insect aeroplanes? still difficult but accomplishable...
