The world-famous singer is a keen golfer and plans to give up golf on the Concern Fast Day, November 26.
Bank of Ireland's new rules concerning cash transactions, which they announced yesterday, are no help to people donating to charities. But it appears, under pressure, including presure from the Finance Minister, the bank is having second thoughts.
For many years now AIB ATMs misspell Welcome in German.
What sort of management can behave in such a manner?
The banks and so many more corporations and organisations.

It's a video from 2011, so quite old. Nothing has improved since!
Nobody knows when the next crash exactly happens, but i think we are very close! Most likely will it be introduced by an event so that they can put the blame onto it.
Now, the banks are pushing hard into the direction of a cash less society since a while - Sweden is the beta version of all this.
One reason for that is to avoid bank runs... imagine the banks would put negative interest rates onto your savings to make you spend more money (which they started to do)... lots of people would take the money home to put it under their bed in order to avoid a negative impact. Or a so called bail-in where the bank customers get a 'hair cut' like in Cyprus - you won't be able to take your money home in such an event!

"Coins and notes are a flexible and anonymous medium for quick small transactions that don’t involve an intermediary. In a world where all transactions are electronic, though, the only means of paying is via a bank account, meaning anyone without a bank account cannot buy anything. If you are a refugee with no permanent address and bank account, good luck.
This increases the power of private banks relative to individuals. We will require banks even for buying a bottle of milk.
With this comes the spectre of bank surveillance, where every transaction you ever partake in is authorised and recorded by a privately run commercial bank, giving it a transaction-by-transaction history of your entire commercial life. If such a bank does not like an enterprise – such as Wikileaks –it can just freeze it out."
