How can i safely get some bitcoins?

[ScarySquirrel]

UK? Make a wallet on https://blockchain.info and buy via bank transfer or Barclays Pingit app.

This is definitely the quickest method and what I use when I need Bitcoins. You'll have them within about 15 minutes usually.

I can just about comprehend the anarchy that would arise if the price of Bitcoins crashed.

It happened once before.
