Credit Crunch: Halifax Makes Positive Move
CREDIT Crunch Watch: Anorak’s look at credit crunch in the news:
“Crooning banker Howard Brown has been axed from the Halifax ads because he is too cheery for the credit crunch” Daily Telegraph

I liked Howard! A lot! I used to sing along to the ads with him. Extra, Extra!
He made me feel less guilty about the fact that I had a huge overdraft with them - Because they were too stupid to realise that I couldn’t afford to pay it back - So they kept giving me more and upping the overdraft!
Now what will I do! What can I sing now when my Hubby asks where I am getting all my spending power from?
