The Cashpoint Saga: The Official Launch Ceremony

This week sees the opening of the new Nisa convenience store, just next to the Digbeth High Street entrance of Birmingham Coach Station.  Here’s a short video of Michael the Shopkeeper talking about what the new store will have to offer, such as grocery items, lottery tickets and….(drum roll)…..

A FREE CASHPOINT!

Yes, people, it’s here at last.  Later this week Natwest will be installing Digbeth’s first free-to-use cashpoint in the store, which is open until 10pm Mon-Thurs and until midnight over the weekends.  Naturally, Digbeth is Good cannot fail to mark this momentous occasion, which means it’s time for….(drum roll)….

THE DIGBETH CASHPOINT OFFICIAL LAUNCH CEREMONY!

You are all cordially invited to the Official Launch Ceremony of the First Free Digbeth Cashpoint next Wednesday 28th April 2010 at 6.00pm in the Nisa Convenience Store on Digbeth High Street.  Local celebrity Jon Bounds (him off of Birmingham it’s Not Shit) will be Cutting The Ribbon and making a Filmed Cash Withdrawal.  He has threatened to find a Reg Varney outfit for the occasion (knowing Jon whatever he wears, it’ll be good).

After the proceedings, the party will move onto The Anchor pub around the corner, where Landlord Gerry has promised to stock some special Cashpoint Real Ale.

I do hope you can join us for this glittering social gathering. No need to RSVP, just pop on your clean tux/bestest party frock and we’ll see you there.
