Our Blog

As if Twitter, Facebook, the newsletter and just visiting the pub weren’t enough opportunities to experience the full and unflinching force of our banality, we’ve decided to create a blog!

We weren’t sure about this bit as there’s already plenty of Bank-ness out there and, frankly, the idea of giving Sam the ability to let loose his thoughts on the internet worries us a little, but we thought we’d go with it.  Everyone here will be blogging at some point so it’ll give a slightly more open forum for all of us here to play with, and for you to have a quick look every now and again. 

We’ll try to keep it as interesting and amusing as possible, though this is by no means guaranteed, and hope to make it a little more interactive as time goes on.  For the time being however, these are the thoughts (however few they may seem) of the Bank Tavern Collective.
