Up quite early this morning (7am) as I have a meeting in town (at Starbucks/8:00am) with some friends to have a chat about a business project I am investing in. I will have my small NetBook with me, so I can do some trading if the meeting gets too boring or goes on too long. [...]

A nice lie-in this morning, as I had planned to visit my mother for most of the day – and do a few jobs around her house. She lives on her own now, but is fiercely independent , but there are a few things she has not got the strength to tackle anymore. I left [...]

As is usual, my Monday morning start was not particularly early ~ I was ready for a walk to my local newsagents at 9am (too slippery to cycle) and then a hearty breakfast followed at 9:45am. I was installed in my study at 10:30am – watching for trades on my USA Forex System. Nothing much [...]
