BLUEMOMENT

Over the years I have had a suspicion that the more money you had in your bank account, the quicker these machines paid out. Well, recently, having entrusted the Royal Bank with a small infusion of mah money - something I rarely do as I've never trusted the fekkers efter losing ma money oan their crap shares when under the proprietorship of Fekking Goodwin - I withdrew a modest £30 and I barely had enough time to pocket the card before the pound notes flew out of the machine.

Have others experienced this? The machine was next door to a chandlery (I merely add this so that the eejit who moans that this forum is only fer boaters will give it a rest but, you never know, it might be relevant)

I vaguely remember trying to get cash out of the interactive tourist info display in Loch Maddy or Boisedale on the way to the hotel.....

Does that count?

This is a sailing forum...

And what is sailing if not throwing money to the winds?

I try to look at it in terms of self discovery and personal development....

As in "Where am I? What am I doing here?" Yes, I've had quite a few of these moments as well.

It's more, "Who am I" "Where the feck am I" in some cases.
