I WAS doing my banking in the Cowdenbeath RBS branch on Monday October 2, which was the day that they closed their doors for the final time (full marks to all the staff for maintaining such a cheery disposition).
Later that day my partner and I went to the cinema, where, amongst the many adverts, was one for the RBS, where the narrator intoned that, "we're not just the Royal Bank of Scotland, we're the Royal Bank FOR Scotland.
For the staff and loyal customers of Cowdenbeath I'm sure the word "irony" has never been so apt.
