i wondered that

but it sounds as if it's a different type of loan (i might be wrong on this cos none of the media stuff is exactly clear...) with the Barclays loan being an emergency overnight loan, which i understand is quite common and iirc is more to do with the banking rules and laws that are in place in this country and a certain amount having to be held with the Bank of England, in cash, at the end of each working day, Whereas the Northern Rock loan sounds a little more long term...

(this may be down to me misunderstanding things, but it's the only thing that seems to make sense to me)
