I accidentally closed Bet Angel instead of Guardian and when it asked if I'm sure I assumed it's asking if I want to save the list of markets and clicked yes! The flipping sun's shining on my screens. :lol:

I imagine we are around peak impact point from the Suez canal blockage. Give it a few weeks and everyone will have too much of 'hot weather' stock and prices will plummet.

Kay Burley's back on Sky after her 6-month suspension for celebrating her birthday during the lockdown, I can't believe Sky allowed her back onto the front line. What a flipping cheek quizzing politicians about covid with her record!

Thanks, but I'm watching (or listening) on my TV set. They've really got you by the testicles, there's not much you can do about it. :)

Absolute FA to trade tonight. Suppose there's no excuse for not doing the housework tonight.

Football on Sunday clashes with the hot weather. :(
