DTABS
Moved my site to a new host, took the opportunity to upgrade all the software (Coppermine, WordPress, and plugins). Unfortunately some plugins not WP 2.3 ready, so I’ve hacked the previous version of dtabs to work with WP 2.3, until a pucker version is produced (Dynamic Tabs Plugin)

Henry’s Investment Update May
Not much happened this month, generally good recovery from SUS & JLP bringing our performance back up. Reduced our holding of SUS, as planned, as now fairly valued, the other half kept for the yield (ex-dividend tomorrow). The six monthly ISA fees of £40 are now due, I’m tempted to switch to Selftrade for a flat £25 annual fee, to save on overheads. At the start of May, Henry’s original investment of £133.14 is now up by over 10%, valued at £146.49 or 1.19% of my portfolio.

Carnage
George has been catching and bringing in some rodent or other nearly twice a ‘day’ recently. I say day but it’s often 3am or 5am in the morning. This could just be his way of saying, “Hey, I love you guys, I can be useful too!”, since he has spent a lot of time in catteries at the moment. Whatever it is it is very annoying, the latest was a grass snake that he had neatly chopped into bite size chunks.
Henry’s Investment Update April
Results out for both HWY and DTK this month, both better than I expected, so Highway is back in as our high yield share, and I have increased our exposure to DTK. What with the extra churn, HWY going ex-dividend and the usual post results lull, another poor month. As a result Henry’s original investment of £123.14 is now only 4% up, valued at £127.28 or 1.11% of my portfolio.
