ah the momentary joy that can be had from pressing 'balance' at a cash machine and seeing that you have 36 thousand pounds in your current account.

shame it'll all be gone shortly...

You're going to buy 36,000 things from a pound shop?

OK, well, I know that's not really going to happen but still.

Actually, in a way, you're going to spend it all on drinks and clubbing. That's probably some kind of record.

I had a similar feeling when I did that just before I bought my car last year.

Swiftly followed by the pant-cacking nervousness of keying in for a 5-figure switch transaction...

It's a surreal experience. You expect there to be something different about spending that much money and it's not, it's just like buying a bottle of wine at the local offie for £6.50. I think I checked the amount about 4 times before keying my pin in though.

You know i think we had 50K in our account for a little while back in 04...

Of course that went rather quickly though we did hold back about 10K for double glazing etc...
