    As the pettiness has died down I’ll give my report. No long winded replies please.

    Nearly all Digger Mansions loot is in gold. We do have adequate pensions, and we will both be getting the new pensions. Me this year, and Mrs. D. in 2022.

    Average cost of our gold is under £650 per ounce. Started moving everything in to gold from 2005, top of bell curve in 2010, end of bell curve in 2015.
    A year ago it was £1020, and today it is £955, so, could be better..._

    I started this financial year as a pauper, and in the interests of consistency, have finished it as a pauper.

    I'm happy though.

    It's not usually too difficult to spot the bell-end when threads get dragged round to gold again.... ;)

    Oops!

    Apologies in advance for any offence caused by puerile schoolboy sense of humour coming to the fore and failing to resist the opportunity for a cheap gag!
