Done!

Almost an hour and over 10 signatures later I find myself with a shiney new bank account for business purposes.  I have noted that both accounts are accessible via the same home banking log-on, which is a mixed blessing – they both have the same name, so I’ll just have to be careful that I don’t do something with one account when I should use the other.  Fiddly.  Still it should keep me a little more organised, which is a good thing.

I could not believe the number of forms I had to sign, often twice or three times and the resulting amount of documentation was impressive.  Roll on bio-metric signatures.  At least they should mean that everything can be done electronically, in theory.

Right, now I can get down to some work, finally.
