Following the problems in the sub-prime lending market in America and the instability of banks and building societies in the UK, the trouble has now spread to financial institutions in Japan.
Over the past seven days, Origami Bank has folded, Sumo Bank has gone belly-up and the Royal Bonsai Bank has announced plans to cut some of it's branches.
On Friday it was announced that the National Karaoke Bank is up for sale and is likely to go for a song, while today shares in Kamikaze Bank were suspended after they nose-dived.
Samurai Bank, as you can imagine, is soldiering on despite years of sharp cutbacks and even the reliable Ninja Bank has taken a dramatic hit, although they remain in the black.
Definitely some bad news for Karate Bank, where yesterday it was announced that 500 staff have been given the chop.
Although no reports have come in from Sushi Bank Plc, analysts seem to think that somethimg fishy is going on and that staff, as well as their customers, may be getting a raw deal.
And if that doesn't make you chuckle during these hard financial times, I'm at a loss!

I'm ok in this situation...I can have a 3 course meal for less than a quid:
1) Prawn Cocktail
2) Roast Chicken
3) Well, not much of a desert but a Ready Salted
:p
All joking aside, you are right...scary stuff!

bah. Tis not funny when you become pennyless. I feel that soon a global depression will happen soon. I didn't think it could happen in my lifetime. Who knows, maybe the world will cheer itself up by killing each other in a big world war over nothing.
Thought that was another creative story...until I watched the news.
Stole it make my family laugh - nice one pete!
