Hello , I hope you had a lovely, sunny Bank Holiday weekend. I went on a canal trip from Little Venice to Camden and back for a friend's birthday bash. Here I am sitting on the deck, soaking up the sun! It was just lovely and I recommend
it next time you're in London 😎 I've also been busy with giving a talk to the Investment and Savings Association at the Palace of Westminster (another great view, that time over the Thames) and of course my Daily Mail 'Miss Moneysaver' column as I do every week. I've also had quite a few TV and radio interviews, as usual, about all kinds of topics from inflation, to people struggling to pay bills, to the government being desperate
to stop us using cash...while I'm desperate to stop them doing it! |
