Bankia crisis !

With the news at the begining of the week about Bankia being in trouble, we set off to Caja Madrid on Tuesday to find out what was happening to our bank and our money. We thought there may be the odd bit of panic, people queueing to get money out etc. But nothing, not even the staff seem bothered about the news, shrugging of shoulders being the order of the day.

Then last night the government bought 45 per cent of Bankia making it safe, probably safer now than most.

Silly British people, we love to panic.

By the way Fontanars Fiesta weekend (san isidro) two weeks today !!!

Well Bankia are being investigated by the Spanish Governments Anti-Fraud squad, so sorry to rain on your parade, but I think I'd change banks if I were you.

Hi already have, cheers
