    That is handy.

    But in the last 12 months I've only had one customer pay by cheque. You can pay in at the Post Office, so I took the cheque there. The woman behind the counter told me I can pay in cash there, all I need is my debit card in their machine. But for cheques I needed a paying in slip. Not had a paying in book for donkey's. She said I could obtain a paying in slip from my bank, which sort of defeated the object of using post office.

    So Saturday morning I drove into Preston (eleven miles away) to use RBS' main branch. Paid to use a car park. Walked the quarter mile to the bank. Felt sorry for homeless guy on pavement outside with dog-on-a-string, and bought him a pie and a brew from Greenhalgh's across the road.

    No way I'm going through all that for a ten quid cheque.
    I just dropped in, to see what condition my condition was in

    T/T: Inspire Monarch, X200 tonearm, Ortofon Quintet Blue. Phono: Project Tube Box CD: Marantz CD6006 (UK Edition); Amp: Musical Fidelity A5 Integrated.
    Speakers: Zu Omen Def, REL T9i subwoofer. Cables: Atlas Equator interconnects, Atlas Hyper 3.0 speaker cables

    T'other system:
    Echo Dot, Amptastic Mini One,Arcam A75 integrated, Celestion 5's, BK XLS-200 DF

    A/V:
    LG 55" OLED, Panasonic Blu Ray, Sony a/v amp, MA Radius speakers, REL Storm sub

    Forget the past, it's gone. And don't worry about the future, it doesn't exist. There is only NOW.

    I told a man at the bank the same thing! He noticed a had a few dollars in my checking account, and wanted to know if I’d like to start a savings account. I asked what they were paying, he said, 0.005%. I laughed in the phone and told him I could find more money in the couch cushions! He took it well.

    And congrats Al on your big win! Now to decide what to spend it on?
