Wouldn't worry Helen. It's all a load of stuff the little man can't do anything about. However even if a Bank goes tits up like Northern Rock the Government would help out as otherwise they'd have a revolution on their hands. My friend has a Northern Rock mortgage and no probs. Halifax is much more secure than Northern Rock anyway, even if it hadn't been taken over.
