Ok here’s tonight’s plan. Paper again hardly propped up but this time bin lid which overhangs a little inside plus the lid which will limit the little fuckers ability to jump out. Peanut butter still. Updates in morning. GN
Paper in the bin but no mouse ffs. How does a mouse jump a near on vertical metre. I think I may need to deploy a mouse trap… Tom is being beaten by Jerry

Most UK people think wealth preservation means a savings account.
It doesn't.
Here's what actually works:
Stocks & Shares ISA: £20,000/year. Zero tax on gains. Beats inflation over time.
Gold & Silver: Finite supply. No government can print more. Holds value across centuries.
Paste this into Ai:
I’m from the UK and I want to start investing properly.
Ask me:
• my age
• salary
• monthly expenses
• debt
• current savings
• risk tolerance
• how much I can invest monthly
Then build me a simple Stocks & Shares ISA plan for the next 10 years.
Hedge funds are piling into US semiconductor stocks:
Last week, hedge funds purchased the most US semiconductor stocks in at least 3.5 years.
This follows the 2 largest consecutive weekly sales since June 2024.
As a result, semiconductor stocks now account for 10% of total hedge fund exposure.
This percentage is twice as high as during the same period last year.
However, this remains below the peak of 14% recorded in May.
Hedge funds are betting the semiconductor selloff is already over.
The moment you become an investor:
You stop seeing a price drop as a loss.
You start seeing it as a discount.
That mental shift is worth more than any strategy.
I automate £400 out of my account on payday.
Before the takeaways.
Before the impulse buys.
Before the 'treat yourself' moment.
I regard that as treating my future self.
Pay yourself first means:
Salary hits account.
Investments leave immediately.
You live on what's left.
Not the other way around.
Most people invest what's left after spending.
That's why most people never build wealth.
I had loads of people asking how I’d think about generating income from a £200,000 Stocks & Shares ISA:
70% (£140k) → $JEQP / $JEIP (JPMorgan)
Around 10% yield, paid monthly.
20% (£40k) → Something like $CEPG (Rex Shares)
Around 20% yield, paid monthly.
10% (£20k) → A highe
$META announced their first data centre in Canada. £10 billion. 1 gigawatt of power.
That’s on top of:
$10 billion West Texas facility. 1GW capacity by 2028. Sixfold increase from original budget.
28th US data centre breaking ground in Tulsa Oklahoma. They’re 32nd globally.
