A rant:
NSandI’s process for a child owning their Premium Bonds account when they turn 16 is ridiculous. Unless I’m missing something. Maybe I am. Anyway here goes:
1. Letter arrives in post telling 16 year old to “show this letter to your parents […] and ask them for the details of your account”

Have tried to be a little bit nicer to everyone today, in a stupidly self-centred attempt to rebalance the universe in some vanishingly small way. It’s the only thing I could think of to try and feel some sense of hope. Perhaps that’s really all that’s left at the bottom of Pandora’s box.

The trouble with these (actually very useful) starter packs is that people on them follow you back and then you feel like have to say something meaningful / insightful / funny / witty / interesting / short / insightful / non-repetitive.
My apologies to all the lawyers and Labour politicians…
