Looking at the London stock market was something not for the faint hearted. Bank stocks such as Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS) were really battered. I had to lie down as a result. Declaring an interest about UK bank stocks, I have got a few
HSBC shares. (Note for editor: I have since sold the HSBC shares at a loss since I got a real case of cold feet). I hope they go up. The British government has hinted that it will take equity stakes in the banks as part of a support operation. The hint has not helped shore up share prices.
In this blog I urge readers to get a will. This is quite straightforward. For instance, if you live in Coventry you can get a will drawn up with APS Legal and Associates
(www.Aps-legal.co.uk). The firm also offers advice on areas such as inheritance tax and financial tax planning (I think).
I am reading George Elliot's Middlemarch, which is a 19 century novel based on Coventry while Brassing is Birmingham.
