Don’t beat yourself up @Pando, we’ve all made mistakes in this journey 🙄

ye, recon your correct there @Zeuk. Especially with the burger. All event food vendors round here are now £7-10 a burger.

Thank you.
As far as I am concerned, it is not about giving free advertising, good or bad, to commercial enterprises, but more about informing the entire community clearly, simply, and efficiently.
Some may even have doubted the accuracy of your information. Presenting your evidence makes it easier to believe, and also for anyone to check for themselves.

Thanks @blackadder for my prize 😀, it got delivered today 🙄. Used @DrDave new coin photo contraption that turned up as well. Really easy to use and good results considering it’s a phone camera 🧐

Thanks to all that have answered.
Lots of great advise. Especially in getting rid of debt. I had only earmarked about 5% to 10% of any funds for my PM's purchases. This way I only use what I can afford to leave sitting for an unspecified length of time. I have about 12 months living expenses as liquid funds with a small emergency fund as well. I do use my ISA. My house is paid for, so mortgage free. I have other property at about 50%LTV as a conservative estimate. I have been making regular over payments. I intend on paying a couple off. I've not really put much into my SIPP. Only reason is I have had quite a few health scares. Latest was a heart attack. I'm ok and still a few years from 50 but never really wanted to tie up my money in something I could not get it out of if worst case happened. I realise the tax advantages of the pension. It just concerned me that with all that happened I might not actually get to benefit from the savings. I like the idea of gold more than silver only due to the VAT status. It always makes me feel I end up paying too much for the silver. I think the idea of just getting it when you have the spare cash. In effect £ cost averaging. Makes as much if not more sense than trying to play the market waiting for the dips. Only concern I have is it is a larger purchase than I would normally make. I have a small collection of other collectables, again, nothing I need to rely on for income. Nice to have and at worst I should get a bit more than I've put in with a little effort on the sales side. They remain quite sort after. Still its not all about the money and like my coins I do get some enjoyment from them.
I'll keep you posted on what I get and look forward to perhaps posting a picture or two. Once again, Many thanks for all your responses.
Kind regards ZRPMs

Got some from the Post Office today.

Such a beautifully wrapped prize from @Skyfiller!
In the spirit of delayed gratification, instilled in me by my late father, I will resist the temptation to open it until Christmas! 
Thank you!
(Must make more effort in packaging for next year!)

I heard this story was incorrect too.
One of the robbers had a 9 foot german sausage stuck up his bottom.
Hes now in hospital, but doctors fear the wurst!

Yes please Dave 👍
