Sterling Crisis: BofE Printers Run Out Of Ink

Only ten days into Quantitative Easing and the Bank of England ran out of ink to print the money, we have just been told.

A spokeswench at The Old Big Titted Lady Of Threadneedle Street told this website:

"We've run out of red, yellow and green ink. It's not a complete disaster, we've got loads of black ink and I mean loads of it a shed load the size of an aircraft hanger of it, blue is ok, and we've even got loads of the silver foily stripy thingie too. And of course we've got loads of paper."

A spokesman for the company that makes the special money ink told us that experts were approaching schools in the area to get children's crayons and pencils to help finish the money off.

A reader phoned us to say:

"You would have thought the Bank of England would have thought about this before it all went pear shaped. I'm thinking of stripping naked on Youtube to protest, would you like an interview?"

Bank Of England Stops Printing Money

Crisis In Your Pocket: The presses at the Bank of England ground to a halt seven days ago, a fact we can only now report under repressive terrorist laws brought in unopposed by this bleedin government.

Money in circulation is not yet affected, but notes with yellow, red and green inks are soon to be in short supply. As soon as by tea time on 5th April there might be no more money left, the first time that has happened since 1962 when Elvis was still in the charts.

A social historian told us: "In 1962 people were generally slower to respond, most hardly even noticed, the poor dears. Today it's only the terrorist laws between us and financial arma-bleedin-geddon."

People worried about not being able to get their hands on enough money to buy stuff have been told that banks will continue to accept debit and credit cards for most transactions. A spokesman for Visa told this newspaper that they have boosted their computers so that they can handle up to 1.5% more transactions than normal to help panicking purchasers.

Tenners In Trouble

Stock up on tenners or you won't be able to buy stuff this Friday, that's the warning from our mate Regis Harris, yesterday.

The Bank of England has stopped printing ten pound notes after it ran out of ink last week after Quantitative Easing went horribly wrong.

Experts told us that there are enough tenners in circulation to meet demand until next Friday, but after that it's anybody's guess what will happen.

The last time the Bank Of England ran out of tenners they could be bought on the black market for anything up to £10.35.

If you feel you might run out of tenners go to your bank cash machine now and stuff them under your mattress.
