Some days you just have to give in to life's essentials ... shopping. So it was and we were happily festooned with goodies when, bang crash double wallop, we subjected to a downpour. Where to shelter? That's when I spotted the open door of the Barclay's Bank. Zooooom - in we sloshed. In today's banking situation we must have been the fastest people who wanted to enter, not exit, Barclay's portals. The rain deposited as much as the bank is accused of depositing into it's own coffers ... possibly in as short a time. We are Barclay customers so we took the opportunity to don out wet gear before braving the storm; this had relented to a gently rain.
Is this the most shelter that a bank can offer in today's economic climate?
It's better to travel than arrive ... then again ...
