erm - I was hoping for £699,999.58 discount? Although, to be fair, I have some cash tucked away. Would you take a fiver?

Ah go on - You know you won't shift it in this climate. A fiver is the best offer you are getting - at least you won't lose 700 million on it. You can put it in the books as a loss leader to help cash flow

damn - missed a few 000's there.

More importantly - how bad could a surname be?

Even more importantly - What did it used to be I think we should be told

Good job you don't work in finance

And some people do know the reasoning behind it, only a select group mind.
