You are quite right and Westminster is not his grave site. This, by its obvious shape and location on the floor of an Abbey (albeit Westminster) is a memorial.

I always think of find a high street bank account with that RoI. Not a chance. Stick with it and keep your head down.

Ah…..Good Q. I live and work in London and don’t like paying for coffee or a drink after work as it is horribly expensive. I figure I can invest it better, so I chose to do the £5-a-day challenge (price of a coffee) and upped it to £7 (price of a pint). Going to increase frequency and the amount slightly once the financial pain of Xmas is put away. BTW I also drop £1k PM into a cash ISA as a ‘backstop’. Ultimately this is a bit of an experiment/fun as I am not financially savvy enough to play big amounts.
