Just thought I'd give a heads up for the blog. I dont read it daily but a couple of times a week will catch up.
It never ceases to amaze me the energy and interesting topics that are constantly apparent through this gem.
At times i need a bit of inspiration to keep going - and this blog often provides that.
Thanks

Thought I would bring this page back to life so that people can use it to discuss posts made by Peter on his blog.
I have to say I like the new Video Blogs Peter is doing. A good addition.
The Cheltenham videos each day are worth watching.

Looked like a nice morning for a bike ride today Peter.
Highlights the need for back up systems not only in trading - would have been a good segway into a video blog about your back up systems (had it not been Gold Cup day).
No spare inner tube? No pump? No puncture repair kit? No mobile to phone a friend (I suspect you did have one to do the recording)? Worse of all though no helmet!?!?
I never used to run with a mobile when out on my training runs, but one time I was out running with some people and one person tripped and cracked their head on a kerb, no one had a phone to call for an ambulance. Ever since I always make sure I strap my mobile on my arm and tell people my route and ETA, I have also started to use the Glympse app.
To relate to trading - I once had an internet drop out. I didn't have the BF number to hand. Ever since then I printed up a sheet with the key info and laminated it and kept it on my desk with my mobile. I remember I got stick on my blog back when I posted about it - I then read some time later one of the people who had given me stick, lost a load of money when they had a power outage and couldn't find the BF number to call to exit their position
Keep up the videos - best of luck with the Gold Cup!

Was very cold first thing but I enjoy that, nice way to freshen up in the morning.
I borrowed the bike from the Gym so no spare equipment with it. My bike is draped with spares. I do about 20 miles so could have been a real problem if I was much further out.
Had my phone but didn't need to use it thank fully.

Good job mate
There's very few people worth listening to in sports trading, but you're the man!
However, those video blogs aren't necessarily a great idea. They'd be better with more examples of what happened and why, rather than you just talking in general.
Do you wear the same jumper everyday, like an old gentleman with a smoking coat?
I think those trading videos should be more reflective of other traders - perhaps record one whilst sitting in your underpants, scratching your bollocks and dunking biscuits into your coffee

No offence taken, LeTiss often adds some colour to the forum.
Re the top, I have a 'video' top that I wear to shoot them. Maybe I should wear trader attire at some point!
I will expand them over time, just wanted to see if they worked as a concept.

I have to say I really enjoy the video blog, any attire fine by me. Within reason of course.
