On a recent disastrous visit to Center Parcs, they had piped music in the toilets as well as blasting out from speakers as you left the buildings. It was like the Butlins I remember from my childhood, only more chavtastic.
I thought piped music was confined to dodgy restaurants and some supermarkets, so imagine my surprise when I went to the bank yesterday for an appointment and realised that HSBC has their own radio station. I can only imagine that Madonna, Soft Cell and The Beatles were being played for the benefit of the staff, as the three customers who came in whilst I were there were even older than me.
Do we really need music whilst withdrawing money from the cash machine?
What is wrong with peace and quiet? And shouldn't the bank be concentrating on banking, instead of providing their own radio station?

I had my hair done, put on my sexy new outfit and breezed into the pub to meet my friends. "Who's the old bird?" I overhead one of the male customers ask the barman.
