August was over in a flash which is a big shame with the nights drawing in and the end of the summer.
I finally had the splint removed from my finger in August and 2 weeks on , it’s hasn’t healed anywhere near as much as I would’ve liked. There’s still plenty of scar tissue, with the strength and flexibility no where near where I would’ve expected 2 months on from injuring the finger. I might have to go back to the hospital if there isn’t further progress during September.
Despite this I did return to sports, playing in a charity football tournament and one game of cricket. The tournament and the return of the football league has reignited my interested in football somewhat, but no regrets for not playing the start of the season before heading to Aus. The cricket game confirmed I am nowhere near the level to play anymore of the season with only a few games left.
There has been no further updates since the acquisition. It looks like there will not be any more until after I will hand in my notice. No redundancy incoming 🙁
August 2025 Financial Position
It was another month of not investing any of my pay check and building my cash position. I needed a new mattress as well as my Mum’s birthday taking place, so not as big a surplus as I would’ve liked in the month, but my cash position has hit over £10K for the first time since April 2021!
