    Thanks Stuart. I feel your spreadsheet pain _pale_, hope it's back up soon.

    Has been sore for months but dentist couldn't find what was wrong. One good thing about it being more painful is that at least I think I know where the pain is now :rolleyes:. Just washed strong pain killers down with whisky so if it still hurts I won't care :o

    Did a bookies MS today & bet came in (good old Canaries :)), will get a stonking £4.75 back :rotfl:, better than a poke in my sore tooth :D

    I love your idea of risking your OH's ISA; does he know or have you simply sold it on the "growth potential"? ;)

    Have successful time and hope the tooth/gum can be cleared up ok soon.

    We did a risk questionnaire at the weekend and he came out as a high risk investor & has given me total control :eek:. As I've previously said, he has a stonking pension, so 'just' 12k in ISA. Just done paperwork for ISA transfer, have until the weekend to choose funds.

    One potato, two potato.... you are it.....:rotfl:

    Dentist in 6 days 3.5 hours :o.

    Hi GG - how's the tooth? Is is just one tooth or your whole mouth? I don't have sensitive teeth - I can eat ice cream, boiled sweets etc but I'm really sensitive to tooth paste and mouth washes - just a thought....

    Not too bad at the mo but been on painkillers a lot today :(. Anything hot ok and can drink anything cold but biting cold things is instant agony :confused:. Not eating cucumber anymore :o. Brushing teeth with lukewarm water & adding warm water to mouth wash which is pretty pathetic :rotfl:. I think something is lurking beneath a crown :eek:.

    OK, nearly done on fund choices:
    First State Indian Subcontinent
    Scottish Widows Latin American (Stuart - tempted by your Threadneedle but fund manager has changed recently)
    Either Aberdeen Emerging Markets or First State Global Emerging Markets
    Either First State Greater China or Asia Pacific Leaders or Fidelity SE Asia
    Bold are most likely where there is a choice.

    Which means I've left property, special situations, commodities etc out & will[STRIKE] play with those[/STRIKE] research those if OH decides to reinvest PIP funds.

    Brain pain now, going to bed ;)
