Quote from: Silver Tabby on Yesterday at 02:41:23 PMJust received an advert/email from one of my Craft Suppliers in Cornwall - and this is the heading :-

"You may of missed this ..."

Do they not speak English in Cornwall?

Does no-one proof read things before publishing them?

Makes me cross - which is not good in a heat wave - so I will just leave this here:-

AARRGGHHH !

Do calm down, my friend.   Go and have a cup of tea.   :smiley:

Went up the Co-op, got 2 cakes for a £1.
On the way back, I saw old Jake
Looking sad, so I offered him a cake

Apparently the new basic rate pension is only about £12 less than the personal allowance according to something I read. That means pretty much nothing is in taxable.

I can see lots of bank accounts being emptied, or at least bought down to an untaxable level.

Quote from: klondike on Yesterday at 02:59:06 PMDo many keep big chunks of cash in stocks and shares ISAs? Surely the option is there to either transfer it to a cash ISA or invest it if tax is to be avoided. Certainly large amounts can't be left there or it will simply vanish assuming it will get taxed at year end every tax year.

I haven't checked as I only have a cash ISA now having cashed out and moved the money there from less than dazzling well performing stocks and shares ISAs to make cash available quickly if needed.

Yes  they do at times becaue they may have sold something and hasn't decided where to put it 
The fact is that ISAs were feted as a tax free way of saving and investing .
This is just another way of taxing money that has already been taxed .
