No One Expects The Spanish Acqusition!
As Tim discovered, I've been nationalized by the British Government and a Spanish bank
The government on Monday confirmed it was nationalising Bradford & Bingley after hammering out a deal with the Spanish bank Santander, which will buy the embattled UK mortgage lender’s £21bn deposit book and branch network for about £600m.
I wonder if this means they'll play Tapas at my funeral?

You better get on the phone to Rosetta Stone and get those Spanish language tapes!

(At least I can laugh about SOMETHING in this whole sad mess.)
