Exclamation Do You Have Money in an Irish Bank?

There is some worry on the wires at the moment, I suggest you re-evaluate your financial position with the Irish Banks.

Just a heads-up .... I got caught on the Icelandic episode and am rather sensitive!

If it saves someone their savings I am happy.

I am just flagging up a possible concern - and asking those who care to look for themselves and make their own risk assessment.

We have stopped shopping at Iceland as i was concerned about not getting any change and also worried about running into Kerry Catona. I do hope that i will not have to give up Guiness!

Nice one Pete. Are you trying to destroy the Irish banking system?

UPDATE 1-Fitch, govt warning hammers Irish bank stocks | Reuters

It will just go the way Northern Rock did I would imagine, so personally, wouldn't worry.
