So When Did Banks Become Exciting?

On Inverness High Street this afternoon I noticed that a former bookshop is being transformed into a bank. There are wooden hoardings which proclaim this to be a matter of great excitement.

But tell me...other than when they were being blown to smithereens in old cowboy movies...when did banks merit the use of the word "exciting"?

Perhaps this one will be different. Maybe the cashiers will also be trained acrobats. Maybe the display unit on the cash machine will play music videos.
Perhaps the procedure for getting a personal loan will involve a roulette wheel.

Or maybe the bookshop was more exciting than all of this.
