They have to be around here SOMEWHERE but I'll be darned if I can find them. I kept them in a shoebox (they fit perfectly). I wouldn't have thrown them out. If nothing else, the old statements are the records of my past addresses. And I had more checks. Or I would have ordered more.
I am utterly baffled. I have searched through the house. I've gone through every small box. Room by room, drawer by drawer, file by file. They have to be here. but I can't find them.

And I think the account number on the new checks are missing 4 digits. but I'm not sure if those 4 digits matter.
Of course the bank had closed when I discovered this and won't open for 2 days and the lobby is closed anyway.

C'mon Mark - no one in Australia uses cheques anymore. Indeed, I seem to recall reading in the newspaper in recent weeks that they will be formally discontinued by our central bank by the end of the year.

Looking forward to seeing a pic of the kind of car you're getting. Perhaps I'll google it in the meantime. But you haven't told us the most important thing: what colour is it going to be?
