I have considered shifting away from HSBC in the past. The problem is that it's a joint account with my sisters. Have you ever tried opening a new joint bank account with people you're not married to? They treat you like the offspring of Pablo Escobar, Joaquin Guzman and Adolf Eichmann. You half expect to be escorted from the bank straight to Guantanamo Bay.

Mundanely, yes, twice succesfully. Not with HSBC, who are difficult to deal with.

If you could give us a hint about where to stash the vast proceeds of our crimes, I would be very grateful.

Branch can verify your you, then it should be you handing the phone over to get the internal e-mail address for the bank to be given, by branch staff.

Methinks "can't" means "can't be bothered".

I did something similar with Santander to close down an account, they rang up for me then handed the phone over went through more security questions then handed phone back

Yes but none of the supermarkets stock German/Jewish style mustards any more. I mentioned Polish shops because there are a few locally but, as @Reynard says, any big supermarket will have Polish goods on the shelves.

Most just seem to have English, French and American mustards. I don't mind French, but of the others, one is far too hot and the other is far too vinegary.

The musztarda delikatesowa is probably the closest to Jewish-style mustard. It does go wonderfully well with pastrami

My "X" Key wasn't working properly. This is either because I've been posting too much in the Brexit thread or more proably because I make models next to the computer and a bit of plastic was gumming it up

I've fixed it now.

When that happens to mine, it's either biscuit crumbs or cat hair...

Have spent the evening trying to get a steward for an upcoming judging engagement.

It has resulted in me getting another judging engagement and another stewarding engagement.

And I *still* don't have a steward for the show I was trying to get one for...

 

[Reynard]

Oh bum... One of the cats has barfed in the hallway. Better go mop it up.

I once did a complete reinstall of Windows 10 before I realised that the culprit was actually a small scrap of peanut jammed between two keys on the keyboard.

Sorry, I know I really shouldn't laugh, but...

I was on holiday on a very sunny, lazy island at the time. It wasn't a great hardship.....actually, quite fun.

I wish there was an emoji for a Spockesque raised eyebrow.

Intriguing, Captain.

Anyways, time for me to toodle pipski.

Not sure if there will be kippers for breakfast, though...

No point in smoking you one then. I doubt you'd be here for breakfast.

I am feeling rather tired after two full-power rides on Zwift yesterday. This exercise malarky is quite addictive.
