Last week was particularly interesting as HSBC released the latest in their line of headline grabbing products at an extraordinary rate of 1.99%, and I was asked to provide a comment.

Just when you thought Big Brother had been cancelled, along came HSBC and within minutes managed to get one of my quotes pulled from a website.
After deciding to watch the last few minutes of the tennis which turned into an enthralling hour or so and a hot sleepless night punctuated by a restless little boy crying, I dragged myself out of bed before 6 am to the hallowed halls of the BBC to do a live TV interview on house prices.
Although the usual nerves kicked in, I enjoyed it even if being interviewed standing up was new! Actually, standing up was a good way of doing it and Simon Jack is a very good interviewer who keeps things flowing and certainly knows his stuff.
