The diary seems less important compared to what is happening elsewhere in the world



Diary

Coronavirus is on everyones lips and will certainly be affecting my diary in the short term or possibly the long term....who knows. The main point is that people must take this seriously and take the correct precautions to prevent the spread of the virus.

all footballing events accross the UK have been suspended so my trading activity will be limited going forward, but here is this weeks trades: -

The couple of trades made this week are
Leipzig vs Spurs (correct score Dutch) £26.00
PSG vs Dortmund (correct score Dutch) £19.37

Total £45.37

Leaving a total of -£193.95

I am still learning but I will turn that negative number into a positive one and start using the trading profits to pay off this mortgage. i have found the key is to take feelings and emotion out of it. No one likes loosing money but sometime scores go against you and you must take the loss immediately. Quick goals in the first half almost kill off any chance of making a profit.

£1.87 was paid from Quidco again from flybe of all merchants. Flybe collapsed due to the coronavirus outbreak so I was not expecting any cashback from Flybe. I used Flybe alot to travel to Southampton for my meetings. It is such a shame to the UK as there are no other regional airlines.

£11.20 was paid in interest and cashback from my current account for this month. Santander are reducing interest from 1.5% to 1.0% and limiting cashback. My cashback doesnt even cover the fee now so it is time to change bank accounts now.

I had a refund of £4 from buying the wrong school uniform last week as for some reason long sleeved school shirts are cheaper than long sleeved? no sure how that works but I will add the money to the over payment.

This weeks matched betting was limited by my time again I only managed to do some Bet UK and Virgin bet existing offers. It was Cheltenham which usually means serious matched betters take time off work to take up as many bookie offers as they can. My total was a poor effort that returned a total of £36.20 as I was stuck in work.
