Hungry Cashpoints
Every few days I extract cash from the ubiquitous hole in the wall. I frequently boast about my Nationwide account - no fees for cash withdrawals anywhere in the world, and a quality exchange rate to boot. Trouble is, one day you end up using a faulty machine, your card gets stuck in the mechanism, and you never see it again.
Thankfully I’d considered this possibility, so I have a number of cards from different banks. My only pain will be paying some fees on cash withdrawals until my replacement card arrives.
I’m not going to rant on about the news, but there are a number of important articles linked to the top right of the page under the ‘current affairs’ heading. Right now, these are even more recommended than usual. Above all, this article by Matthew Parris in The Times seems to really hit the spot for me.
