Bank of Mercia

Thanks!

The Bank may have uttered one or two choice Saxonian phrases...

Knee...

Something like that...

Sadly, not celebrating

A different form of 'plastered'

Tomorrow morning, I plan to do something that I haven't done for probably 30+ years.

And that's to be plastered by lunchtime.

That's the Ersatz Bank of Mercia, run by El Squigg

There is absolutely no truth in the rumour that The Bank will be bringing in animal themed currency

Just a phantom with a phantom's courage
You know he's nothing but a phantom
And he can never fail

Take a niche reference.

And make it even more niche!

Bravo, Dear Leader

With pleasure, Your Popetatoness

Good peelings to you

Look, I'd *love* to see a live action Mummer's Play of this!

Even a part for you

@theselectfyrd.bsky.social "Wulfhelm, Bardy on stage"
@wulfhelm.bsky.social "What do you mean Bardy on stage? Open fire. All seaxes. Dispatch Fyrdymobile to bring back his body"
The Banker "Bardy's alive?"
@meadhallwench.bsky.social"Bardy, I love you Bardy. But we only have 14 hours to free Mercia:"

Did you have to do that in War Rocket Ajax?

Post your fav Lord of the Rings character. Wrong answers only.

Finally, someone who understands my altruistic character

I am quite happy for His spare cash to rest in my personal account

I'm shocked - shocked! - at the suggestion that I want to 'get rid' of Squiggs!

I'm merely enticing him with the possibility of a freeholiday, care of my Frankish friends.

You think I should leave a trail of nuts for @psychicsquirrel.bsky.social to follow?

Or maybe I could spray an Amaretto trail...

Will you be buying a present for the latest of the brood?

Just so I have an outline of how much the tithes will have to rise next time.

We finance their construction

When Fyrdy arrives in prison, he'll be seen as a banger?

Obviously

You see, you do trust me that I have Frankian friends who will take very good care of you and Squiggs!

The longest, the best stays in some of the largest buildings in Lutetia!

All modern facilities, including the best place to have you hair cut!

Don't you trust me?

Look, I'm willing - at my own expense - to pay for first class cart tickets for you and Fyrdy to go to Paris.

I have friends there who will willingly show you the best places to stay for an extended period.

To make it up to the both of you, I'm quite happy to rearrange another trip to Paris.

At my personal expense

I have no desire to become Dear Leader

Unlike some Squirrels I could mention
