The Sainsbury petrol station by Alder Hills now has unleaded at 99.9p so finally we get back under the £1 marker.

Bring on the 3 litre V8 bargain from Autotrader then.

Ah, on second thoughts I am a bit skint now have had to put some more money into the Index Tracker to buy low, to make it easier to recover the loses sooner! Pound Cost Averaging - yeah baby.

Ha, after reading the Motley Fool books and web site a while back, it was tracker funds all the way. Cannot lose, beat the markets.

Hmmm, turbulent times indeed. Arse.

Still better than paying overpaid fund managers excessive charges... Bloody red braces and Porches.

Hopefully the 0.5% cut in interest rates today will help.

Rally 2008

For the past 5 years I have told myself I should get down, have a look and take some photos but only finally got round to it now. The sun was out and the noise of 400+ bikes coming in was tremendous. There was also a really good live band on as well which with the sunny weather added to the atmosphere.

The bikes were running a bit late in their journey from Wareham so I would suggest getting down around 11am. Not sure what the usual parade time is.

Harley Davidson 2000 - Bournemouth photos

Not sure if it is a cause for celebration or concern but the web site has reached 100 red wine reviews.I was trying to get there by way of a Bulgarian Cabernet Sauvignon, ahh memories of Uni back in the late 80s, but couldn't find one.

I must have past that milestone a long time back but many of the restaurant ones have gone un-noted and not recorded.

Need to work on the white wines now. Know any good ones?
