@bawarmy Remember his first game as he just looked bewildered as the ball was hoofed from back to front missing him out. Great to see us playing through him now 👏

🚨 TRUMP EXPOSED BY U.S. SENATOR 🚨

TRUMP: “WE NEED $2 BILLION A DAY TO REOPEN HORMUZ.”

SENATOR FIRES BACK: “IT WAS ALREADY OPEN BEFORE THE WAR.”

“YOU CREATED A GLOBAL CRISIS OUT OF NOTHING.”

TRUMP FAILED IN THIS… Show more

Inflation stays at 3% is today's morning news. Given recent events across the globe I am now expecting inflation as well as interest rates to nudge up a couple of times between now and the end of the year. Savers will be happy, mortgage holders less so.

Always good to celebrate success here at Simple and I am delighted to say that our very own Charlie Mackay has passed the Chartered Insurance Institute (R05) exam as he continues his journey to be becoming a fully qualified IFA. Well done Charlie after all the hard work.

Genuinely gutted that Bocadillo Coffee Shop Sauchiehall street has closed. My morning routine for a decade 🥲
Needs must though and a lovely coffee and chat at Crema Coffee Co. this morning.
Happy Wednesday everyone. Here’s to a really positive day for all 👍

The Chancellor announces her Spring statement today. I, like most analysts, are expecting lots of welfare cuts, and I am hoping that there are no surprises in terms of reducing ISA allowances, which had been discussed a few weeks ago.

Michael O'Leary, the CEO of Ryanair, arrives in Dublin. He enters a pub and orders a pint of draught Guinness. The bartender nods and says, "That'll be one euro, sir." Surprised, O'Leary replies, "Wow, that's cheap!" and hands over the euro. The bartender smiles and says, "We aim to beat the competition. We're the cheapest brewery in Ireland." "Cheers," O'Leary responds.

Then the bartender notices, "Sir, you don't have a glass. That'll be three euros for one of ours." O'Leary sighs but pays up. He takes his beer and goes to sit down. "Sorry," the bartender adds, "there's a two-euro charge to sit unless you booked online for just one euro."

Annoyed, O'Leary tries to sit but finds the chair too small. "Sir, you're too large for our seats. You'll need an extra spot for four euros," says the bartender.

Frustrated, O'Leary stands up, places his beer on the bar, and shouts, "This is ridiculous! I want to speak to the manager!" "Ah, you've chosen the bar area," the bartender replies politely, "that's two euros more, thank you."

O'Leary turns red with anger. "Do you know who I am?" he yells. "Of course, Mr. O'Leary," replies the bartender.

"I've had enough," says O'Leary angrily. "I came for a quiet drink, and this is how I'm treated? I want to speak to the manager!"

"Certainly, Mr. O'Leary," the bartender says cheerfully. "You can contact him between 9:00 and 9:10 AM every Monday and Tuesday at this number. Calls are free to connect but will cost ten cents per second."

"I'll never come back to this bar!" O'Leary screams. "That's fine, sir, but remember we're the only pub in Ireland selling a pint for one euro."

Stockmarket fluctuations in the last couple of weeks have been really frustrating after a very good spell, but it will settle down, the general forecasts are good, and always important to 'zoom out' and look at the longer term reality. #financialadvice
