70k spare for two months

hi there i have just sold my house and not found a new one yet so have moved into the flat above my hair salon for approximately 2 months, thus i have the 70k equity released from the sale, does anybody have any wise advice as to where the money would best be put for this short period of time where it will gain a decent piece of interest. cheers

    Post this on the savings and investments board, you'll get more responses. Icesave and ICICI do have the best rates at the moment and are instant access, no-strings accounts. ICICI have a terrible customer service record though, lots of people are reporting problems with accounts. So if you need it in two months, this might be something to consider.
