KC I think what we're trying to say here is you can do better even if that was the field you chose!

Thanks for the poem, that was new to me.

Don't understand the trading in the slightest but do understand coffee and the power of a microwave!

Coffee and the power of a microwave... that should really be a book title :T

The weekend was busy! Egyptology - I left it so late to get the train, I bought a ticket to the wrong town and didn't realise - even showed it at the barrier to a guard, when the gate wouldn't let me through (because I was at the wrong town :eek:) I also took a wrong turn and had to go to a different rail station - but at least that meant I found a Mr M

Then on Sunday I was up to London, to see The Royal Ballet at The 02 - never been there before, and it was amazing. So were they! Though I have to say, ballet and an arena don't really mix - we couldn't see their feet, for heaven's sake! So though I'm really glad I went, because I'd always be wondering what it was like, I wouldn't do it again, and I'm glad it was an mse-deal - the tickets were only £11.

I *am* glad I saw the "dead" pas-de-deux - when Romeo and Juliet "dance with" one another after she's killed herself (ooh, did I let a plot point out :rotfl:). I've only ever seen an excerpt of this ballet - I saw Nureyev and Fonteyn dance one of the main pas-de-deux at The Royal Opera House **wistful look**.

Wrong town ahh well its always good to find somewhere new. Glad the weekend went well and Im with you on the ballet thing at least it was with cheap tickets. It must be nice to spend a weekend in London mmm perhaps once the olympic are over.
Regards WR I agree with the others youre better off with the choccy bics and coffee :beer:

Ooh the ballet sounds good although yeah, I can't really picture it in a big arena. What's a 'Mr M'? Have you been having assignations with strange men at train stations?

Sadly, no its how Gill referred to Morrison's, further up the page


ETA - slightly worrying on the trading charts right now - everything's very erratic, up and down like a yoyo. Might just be the charts I use, but the last time there was stuff like this, was the financial crisis - it was worse then, but I'm kind of wary right now...

Awww... shame!

Trust your gut hun! If it doesn't 'feal' right then it is almost always not the right way to proceed!

Thanks RT! I did feel justified in not even trying today, because of the weirdness - even if its the spread betting firm getting things wrong, it would still affect *me* if I used their figures. But I'm reading a brilliant book by a guy called Dan Gardner, "Risk - The Science and Politics of Fear" - about things like what we think about risk, and how we instinctively fear some things and not others. I'm so interested I'm not making notes, which I meant to do - I'll have to go back over what I've written, because a lot of it is relevant to my trading issues.

Right, off to Sainsbury while its not throwing it down...

It took me ages to get to Sainsbo's, I had an upset stomach, but *very* pleased with my haul when I did ...

- I'd run out of dishwasher tablets :eek: couldn't get them at either of the Superdrugs I go to normally, but Sainsbo had an offer on, of 40 good'uns for £3.16 - I may stock up

- oats, I got double the quantity for more or less the same price - noticed the organic stuff says "contains wheat" :eek: and not happy about it - so if the organic is contaminated with wheat, I might as well have the cheapest - which was 1.5kg for £1.41, as opposed to 750g for £1.49 :j

- extra little gem lettuce free - tho I notice that in the main, they've put their salad prices back up to where they were :rotfl:

- 1kg of frozen spinach on offer at 50p :j

Other bargainous things, but I'm especially chuffed at that lot, for some reason. Bonkers, probably :cool::cool::cool:

Finally got to do some paid work just now, so I'm finally off for the day. Hope everyone has a nice evening
