It was like going back to where I started. Today I was accepted to work at Croydon Royal Mail parcel depot via agency work. I put myself forward when I want to work, just to give myself some extra cash.

Just checking in regarding my portfolio
Global equity markets are having the odd weak day, over recent weeks, as investors worry about rising Covid numbers in certain parts of the world (India), earnings not meeting analyst estimates (Netflix) and general market valuations being high.
I am certainly watching these market movements and fully apricate that we are late in the cycle but I remain unconvinced that we are on a precipice of a significant correction. The reason for maintaining this optimism is, Interest rates are low and will be kept there for some time to come, stimulus measures are still be pumped into markets, and corporate figures, form the US, are on balance still comfortably beating estimates therefore justifying the higher valuations.
This environment remains positive for equity investing, but I do remain watchful.

We returned to Lullingstone Country Park and on a different route came across this viaduct.
Some information about it
This impressive nine-arched red-brick viaduct is a prominent feature on the line to the delightfully-named “Bat & Ball” station. The structure was built by the independent “Sevenoaks Railway”, incorporated in 1859 to link the “Chatham” main line with the market town of Sevenoaks.
The branch was initially single-track, seeing its first services on 2nd June 1862, but the viaduct was built to accommodate two tracks from the outset, because the line was doubled in the following year.
A Maidstone extension from Otford opened on 1st June 1874, this again single-track, but following in the footsteps of the original Bat & Ball line, this was soon doubled, two-track working commencing on 11th August 1875.
The viaduct has nine arches of 30-foot span, and rises to a height of 75-feet above the valley.
