Loan Ranger: Market gets in Christmas Spirit

We hope all marketeers are bracing themselves, their singing voices at the ready, for next Wednesday’s carols at St Clement Danes in central London. Last year’s inaugural Loan Market carol concert was a great success, the gruff, out-of-tune voices apart. Some bankers have already pardoned themselves. “I’ve got young kids, which means I’ve got quite a few carol services to go to next week,” said one. As excuses go, that one’s just about acceptable. But for the rest of you, do try and make it down. After all, it’s a good cause, with all money going to Starlight Children’s Foundation.
