[Gocamino] Spanish Bank Crisis???

[Virginia]

I heard a story on National Public Radio (NPR) this afternoon.  They 
spoke of challenges for Brits having mortgages or banking in Spain...it 
was a sobering story.

Hi Glen,
      I'm very puzzled by this posting of yours.  You heard this on the
BBC?  I have heard nothing like this and I have many friends living on
the Costas.  I tried searching the BBC and could find no information.
There are, no doubt, Spanish banks with problems as there are British
banks and indeed banks in the USA but a UK plan to provide financial or
any other form of succour is news to me.
It sounds a little callous in the face of such tales of mayhem but I'll
take this opportunity of wishing you all the best for the Christmas
festivities and for 2012.
Regards
Tim Proctor

Apparently some of these people have invested all of their savings in banks that may be at risk.  It is was called "Preparing for a Financial Dunkirk".
