Cheque lodgement

Wiffles

Hi, i lodged an AIB Cheque to my account last Friday lunchtime.  This cheque balance is showing in my account but the funds are not available still as of this morning!  Can you tell me how long it will take this cheque to clear and when i can expect to have this money for use in my account?  This seems like a ridiculous length of time to have to wait for an Irish cheque to clear.
