The Bank of England have reduced the Base Rate by 0.50% to 0.50%. Following this, we have changed the rate of interest you earn on your Online Saver account from 0.75% AER to 0.25% AER, 0.25% gross variable. The new rate is effective from 20 March 2009.The Online Saver is designed for people with longer term savings goals - as you won't receive any interest on the full balance in any calendar month you make a withdrawal.Our Online Bonus Saver account may suit you better (Simply go to the 'Savings' tab and select 'Online Bonus Saver'). However, please remember that if you transfer any funds out of your Online Saver this will count as a withdrawal from your Online Saver and no interest will be payable on that account in that month.

Thank you for saving with HSBC.

Flavour of the Month



I just read my sister's offline messages to me on MSN. Apparently she thinks I went too far with my previous post (on Mr Cutie Pie). Too far on the insanity scale that is.

Well in case you TOO think I've lost the plot, let me reassure you that it was merely a crush. No more, but certainly no less either!

^^

Come on, it happens to the best of us...
 
Anyway Yan, I'm glad. It shows you've got your head (tightly) screwed on.

*clears throat*

Ooh, just some photos of yours truly [taken during Jeff's trip to London recently], of which I was (some sort of) a tour guide. It was a nice walk along the embankment indeed...we'll try Cheyne Walk the next time eh buddy?
Actually, something rather interesting happened at the restaurant when we were having lunch. Kinda involved a cute German guy....oh well, enough of my boy-craziness.

 




Don't mean to boast but I love this picture to bits. I didn't know photography skills are intrinsic to me!
