The lang cat’s 10 best albums of 2012
When we’re not banging on about retail and corporate platforms, pensions, transparency and all that good stuff, we’re usually banging on about music. Here’s a list of our favourite 10 albums that have powered us through, got us inspired and kept us writing in 2012. What were yours? Kreator – Phantom Antichrist – tremendous battle […]
A year in the life of the lang cat
Just a short post, and a touch self-indulgent (or more so than usual), if you’ll forgive. A year ago today I cut the cord with the mighty Standard Life, put my pass, phone, laptop and other bits and bobs in a locked drawer and went out the twirly doors for the last time. It’s been […]

Dancers show us human beings […]

Merry Christmas from the lang cat
Well, that’s pretty much it as far as work goes for 2010. It’s been a huge year for pensions and platforms. As more comes our way in 2011 I guess my wish for next year is that we find a way to get more people as motivated to sort out their financial lives as they […]

small things to make your life better #2
So it’s a dreich Monday morning here in Edinburgh, but our spirits are kept high by an historic rugby win at the weekend. That’ll be twice Scotland have beaten South Africa in 41 years then. Anyway, in honour of that and of the upcoming 6 Nations, here’s a clip that never ever fails to have […]
