I'm actually beginning to feel physically sick. I found a building society cheque book, so i can pay the deposit all by cheque now (although i just rang the solicitor and he wants a bankers draft, but that just isn't possible). The solicitor doesn't accept visa (as i thought) so i just have to start praying now that the pin number for my credit card comes through soon!

I've been having a very nice conversation about banks via email with reader Adrian. See, i do have the best readers!
