ONLY 9 WEEKS TO GO UNTIL THE LANG CAT’S DEADx TALKS RETURNS
No, not until Christmas (you’ve got 15 weeks for that. Depressed yet?) But it is just nine weeks until the lang cat returns to The Crypt on the Green in fashionable Clerkenwell for the sixth in our annual series of THE DEADx TALKS. We’ll be there on the afternoon of 14 November, and the purpose […]
THE TOP CLASS WEDNESDAY UPDATE NEEDS NO WET SIGNATURES
Here we are again, siblings. Did you know that 2019 is 70% complete? I’m rounding up, it’s only 69.6% and we won’t go through 70% until Saturday, but I’ve always said that spurious accuracy in whimsical yet informative financial services weekly Updates is unnecessary and overrated. Although, to be completely accurate, the nature and quantum […]
#WorldSuicidePreventionDay
Some of you might already know that I’ve been out and about this year on the conference circuit doing my bit to try and change the way we talk about mental health in the context of the financial services sector, a marketplace (1) traditionally male dominated and as a result (2) really rather bad at […]
THE TOP CLASS WEDNESDAY UPDATE ALWAYS SITS UP STRAIGHT
A shorter Update from me this week, mainly because instead of writing it last night like I normally do, I was up late ending myself with laughter at coverage of the House of Commons. All this uncertainty makes me think more than ever about the value of having someone who can give the longer term […]
THE TOP CLASS WEDNESDAY UPDATE ALWAYS STATES ITS VALUE
It is a truth universally acknowledged that I know absolutely hee-haw about football. Not only don’t I know anything about it, such is my fear of hypermasculine conversations about it that I’ve been known to offer to go to the bar when the subject comes up. Which is odd, as the game I really follow […]

THE TOP CLASS WEDNESDAY UPDATE SAYS IT’S A DEAL, IT’S A STEAL
You know that bit in Lock, Stock And Two Smoking Barrels where Dog’s crew are ripping off Snow White and the Three Little Chemists, and they’re defending themselves with an air rifle and as the second guy in the crew gets shot with the air rifle, Dog says “I don’t believe it. Can everyone stop […]

HMRC take HL to the (super)cleaners
Summer holidays are always a good time to bury good news, and as I glanced at my iphone from my hotel pool lounger the other week this piece caught my attention. I was on all-inclusive mind, so I quickly went back to another mojito, but now we (me) are all back at work, it’s certainly […]
