When I saw one called the "Planet Building Society", I used to wonder how did they build planets! I almost had the guts to go in and ask them, because I wanted to join!

When I was about seven I asked my mum how much you could write a cheque for and she said however much you want. Then I asked her how much chequebooks cost and she said they were free.
