A British bank with a difference – I’m watching Banco de Sabadell SA – they bought TSB. Also you are buying into the Spanish recovery. If there is one! The GB:Euro exchange rate also gives a nice buffer. – i have taken a small nibble. It’s still falling!

I fear your in denial Malcolm . The Banks most popular methods of making big money by cheating people right left and centre in the most creative scams and business forced closures are nearly over, due to a regime of fines and increased regulation . Your looking to the profits of the past which are no longer attainable in the future.
