    what the welsh goverment want you to see

    I honestly think many cases from March and April and May were asymptomatic that was one of the main reasons it entered old folks homes and did its nasty business - it is now moving into the general population , herd immunity is now looking more like the solution with the goverment still trying to help keep the NHS stable with their various methods (that just don't seem to be working.)

    What about those medical students in the midlands that got given used covid tests and told to use them. In my day that was the equivelent of being told to play ball in the middle of a motorway...

    Do they ever question if its UK ex currency? It used to be illegal to melt it down, at least in the uk, in the usa they are more enlightened and you can do what you want with you money - even give it to the trump 2020 re-election campaign if you really want to waste it , LOL .

    Yes an endowment usually has no cash in value for ten years followed by an investment of 110% of funds for the next thirty
  19. copper123
    sounds like it lasted fourty years rarther that the thirty you mentioned 1947-1988 = fourty years

    It must have been an endowment plan with a life insurance element to be worth so much , I am surprised it was just forgotten about , some never get claimed after so many years and end up enriching the insurance funds .
  21. copper123
    I would presume payments into the plan stopped in the eighties because nobody though it worthwhile collecting the 1p a week in the insurance industy

    It's easy to reflect 50 years on if those pennies were put in a savings account say in the post office they might be worth around £2.40- £3.00 max , if withdrawn now. Interest was fairly high for the first twenty years or so (seventies and eighties) and gradually has decreased to nothing for the last five or so years. Interest rates are tipped to turn negative soon so the better alternative of gold silver art and antiques would be a better way to save

    I recently bought around £1 face value of old pennies , not sure why , they were just cheap really . They cost around 3p-4p each , did I do well I would have thought they were worth that as scrap . There is always that pier at southport .................
