A windfall is about to land on the Taylor household (and I'm not talking about my dead tree either). News came in today of a the possibility of cashing in part of my pension due to the fact that from 1st Jan 2007 I will start having to pay tax (no, really!). If true, this will be a serious amount of lolly. The question is: do I spend it now on some frivolous and completely unnecessary stuff (better car, better wine, a big party or even, dare I say, a boat?), or do I play my boring-but-cautious hand and pocket it in some savings account in case of a rainy day? Decisions decisions... (This email comes with grovelling apologies to my London friend Nelson who is by all accounts flat broke and surviving the rest of the month on his last 8 quid in the world!)
Also worked on the Business Plan for http://www.wheresmyteddy.com/ - which is getting kind of exciting. Will it work? Will myself and Billy Whiz be the next biggest thing on planet t'intanet next to Google? Check back at Christmas to find out.
P.S. Don't do evil!

From your london friend Nelson:
Taylor you swine! No really, good for you. I say buy a boat - it's something I have always wanted to do and I would love for you and your family to participate in things I can only dream about while shivering in my hovel.
But I jest of course. I know that my present relative poverty is going to end soon enough when the cash finally comes through from my old flat - my ex is buying me out and I will have cash galore. Good things come to those who wait, they say. Apart from people on death row.
