The interest I'm getting paid on my savings account (Yes, I'm f***ing lucky to still have any savings):

14 Oct 2008£38.32
14 Nov 2008£37.20
14 Dec 2008£25.15
14 Jan 2009£17.86
14 Feb 2009£13.04
14 Mar 2009£9.82
14 Apr 2009£10.55
14 May 2009£10.32

Not quite sure what happened in April. Did the Bank of England forget to cut the base rate or something?

The good news is that the government is getting £2 instead of £8 each month. Which means they have less money to give back to banks to pay me less interest. Hang on, surely this can't be the way out of the crisis?

So there I was, just taking a lunchtime stroll around More London and as I turn around who is right behind me? Michael Portillo.

Freaky. I thought yesterday was Holloween.

I've only ever seen Tory politicians around London (Edwina Curry in a very frightening red jacket; and, of course, Boris Johnson nearly roding his bike into a crowd of us outside The Two Chairmen pub). I guess all the Labour types are tucked up nice and warm in their ministerial offices, etc., whilst the poor old Tories are left to wander to streets. My heart somehow fails to go out to them.
