We have a 3 bed apartment. Living so close to the sea you really get weather. Today is spectatcular but only from the window!

I found the government website interesting. Our place is a B. The heating has been off since last April and the man with his bag of spanners will fire it up on the 14th of this month. Our average cost over twelve moths is 84 pounds a month. December Jan, Feb and March were very cold.... The secret is insulation but a major problem is falling asleep due to lack of ventilation. We have no engy policy in this country at present. It is a disgrace. Banging on the drum of electric cars and green energy is a waste of time if you have nowhere to charge cars and most of the heat goes out of the the doors and windows. When we wanted to install a car charging point in our complex all the greenies who use bicycles refused to vote for it. It has got worse this year as 25% of the places are now second homes!!

I have no problem if they scare off tourists. As for second homeoweners!!!! I live about 150 metres from the sea and looking at it today you would be grateful to warm your handies by the power of a windmill...

The drop each day has been hard to accept but I still intend to hold for the time being. A lot of shares are in down mode. October is going to be a long month while people try and wait for the budget, we see Putrid do his worst before the Winter and the middle east crumble into pieces.. Sensible investors might try and run for the hills but predictions are not my best point. Oil dropping today to 70 dollars .. and still I see no point in investing in it for an uplift..

This is enough to make you hit the bottle but sadly this investment will hardly buy a glass of water now. Sold out long ago but still have a few in an isa. Worth so little trading costs would not be covered..

I have considered the same move but after all this time to watch it go up at speed would cheese me off. I just dither about and I know that is not the way to act when investing. Currently the markets are very volatile and it would ne too easy to jump from the frying pan to the fire. Most of my investments pay dividends so I am not concerned about starving but many are buying their own shares which is not a good sign.. Good luck with your decision.

Article in Times today gives this Buy...

Just roll over and have another forty winks .. One day you awake to a boooooom.. And if you believe that !!

About two weeks ago the last bank in our town closed. The nearest one is now 18 miles away. Cash is now less popular than the Duke of York. The local marketeers on a friday are struggling to get card readers and the county line logistic outfit is wondering how to address operate without it....

It seems the Orwell Bridge has suffered a major structural problem and may have to close. Alrrady due to lane closures it takes between 1 and 3 hours to cross it. All the freight from the biggest container port has to travel over it and if the damage required its closure then the government will have to declare a national emergency. The only good thing is that Felixstowe does not handle any oil imports Currently though lots of businesses are being wiped out as staff and good cannot move at more than a snails pace.... The bridge is forty years old and beginning to crumble.. Current advise is avoid travel on the A14 and stay at home. In the meantime I continue to wonder at the oil price!!

Article in business section of The Times just released. Menthions Enquest as well.. warning governemnt of future investment going abroad.

It is too easy to get disillusioned when investing the markets. I just put them back in thier box and have a nap. I bought today some more.. Must be crackers..

To buy you have to go negotiated and price is 67p

For the next update.....zzzz

As expected. Excellent. Aim high.

This hit 74p briefly in July. It has then slowly sunk back to where we are today. All these buys and sells of hardly any number are mystifying. I know if I sell up though it will go ballistic... Such is life of the small PI

Bug piece in Times about Enquest. Quite a tough warning from Ceo. Investment is beginning to crumble.

The partnership must be good news forshareholders and company says dividends will remain at 8.8 p... Coming all together a good investment long term..

Looks ike the tide has turned... Patience is my middle name..

This has gone ex dividend today. Holding up quite well
