Cats are a different story! 🤣. 

Unless we have mega-rich friends who will hand us the odd £5 million 
like Farage, we'll have to hope the gov' has found a money tree. 
I just try to cut my coat from my ever-diminishing cloth.
I know nothing about Burnham except some remark mad Kemi made
about his T-shirt and eyelashes, and I can't see into the future, so 
I will wait without too high an expectation.

I think i can guarantee a downpour despite none being forecast. Decided to go for a walk for the first time in about a week.

Do 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.

Just 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 !

I occasionally throw a wet towel over the Cat - from a safe distance, and with the First Aid box close at hand.

You can get them on Ebay. All sizes. 👍

Mungo has a cold coat which does work but is getting tatty I don't know if they still sell them
