There'll always be an England


A man who chose "Lloyds is pants" as his telephone banking password said he found it had been changed by a member of staff to "no it's not". ...



He said he was then banned from changing it back or to another password of "Barclays is better".


Of course that does raise the question, how did the guy at the bank know the password in the first place?


Lloyds TSB stressed there was no security lapse in this case.

A spokesperson said: "On the majority of transactions advisors cannot read customers' passwords.



"In this case it was a business banking customer using a system where more than one person from a business can check their balance.

"In these cases an advisor can read the full password.

Which, in turn, raises the questions, whose balance is "their balance," and is there no apostrophe in "Lloyds," and would "Lloyds is trousers" work?

no, silly, if there was an apostrophe it would have to have readd "lloyd's ARE pants."
