falkland, can't do the 90's or s/e ... can do 2000 and east though ... and "she" paid, and she sold and paid cash for another in the north. wtfdik?

Nash, can only speak for myself, it was neither bad nor ugly. Lessons for the learning for the future is how I saw it ... stands one in in good stead.

Nash, well, if the companies cannot pay it back then create inflation ... I/we bought 4 properties during the 80's and it never did us any harm, whatsoever... 82, 83, 88 & 89 and we know what happened in 1990 (or thereabouts).

pay it off? Every company that furloughed staff and took from the government coffers, should pay it back out of any current or subsequent profits - and that's just for starters.

stuart1471, were you just having a laugh about all of that post, or was any of it true?

tj2, just glad to know that you are still around. Any idea what the new "normal" is? Roll the dice/play the hand is about it ...

Rosewall, what's that got to do with the price of bread?

yes, foresight, whatever your strategy and don't forget "ding, ding, next stop" ... john, LEVIS and Wids ... winning combo.

Oxo, as a decent upstanding member of society, you are wasting your time. Somebody/anybody who tells a story that they can't afford to buy a house/home on the one hand and then tries telling you they lost £150k on Afren on the other hand is full of brown stuff. LaLa fantasy world.

"An ounce of action is worth a ton of theory" Ralph Waldo Emerson - speaks volumes.

"An ounce of hypocrisy is worth a pound of ambition" - MK

Education begins at home - so rather than blaming a system maybe some folk need to look closer. Financial and nutritional should be part and parcel of educating the offspring.

Charity begins at home.

Where the heck are these 3 bed semis that were £35k in 1998 and now they are £350K? There is no HPI to support such a claim.

"Forget regret, or life is yours to miss" - Jonathan Larson.

That another has failed to fulfil their potential ... well "Nobody who ever gave his best regretted it" - George Halas.

Oxo, you don't need teaching how to suck eggs ... some others do, but then, you don't need me to tell you that. All from an observational stance, on the basis that another cannot command any respect when they are clearly away with the fairies. Can't afford to buy a house/home ... then we have a farm and how many greenhouses? Using how much oil? Whatever and whatever ...BS from start to finish. Land for the many? BS from start to finish. Corbynista, leftist, marxist/communist remained from start to finish. LaLa land of the highest order.

or even 70% today v 40% of yesterday

Excellent MichealJordan23, the Professor could have had well in excess of 60% had he not pressed the button yesterday ... but there you go, in swings n roundabout world.

Fred, onwards and upwards ...

The ethical stance is that you can't furlough staff and pay a dividend in the current climate.

LEVIS, good day to you.

Being a professor isn't an issue. Taking a profit isn't an issue. Position posting is what it is ...

"This is the time to buy this company. And hold it for a couple of years. Don't look at the daily move of the share too much because it's misguiding and makes you want to sell. Just look at the fundamentals and have a tiny bit of faith in UK construction."

As in "were you misguided?" or "where is the tiny bit of faith?" Case rested.

Cashing out for 40% might not have been your best move yesterday. Yes, a profit is a profit, however 55% today v 40% yesterday?

maybe you're the one who needs to go back to bed and try getting out on the right side. My post was to Ian.B resulting from my one hour chat on Saturday. Furthermore, as a heterosexual female I don't dream about chicks - leave that one to you mate.

we often have a penchant for the same stock

this extract (financing apart) is important for me

" Phil Johns re-joins SIG as UK MD, leading a merger of the leadership teams of our UK businesses, to resume his 28 year SIG career and restore the UK businesses to growth"

I dealt with the company for 17 years until I retired 9 years ago - they were our main supplier - and so I have a reasonably good understanding of a lot of what's gone wrong. I put a call in at the weekend to gain greater clarity -from one who has been there all the while. Back to the fundamentals and do what they were best at - client relationships and excellent customer service - is a winning strategy imv. ATB

banjowest, hats off to you, fantastic.

graham, the consultation period has ended, the outcome of which has yet to be made known.

The 30% discount stays with the property imperpetuity.

and undoubtedly, CNA losing sight of the importance of good customer service, in a customer centric competitive world has has had a massive impact on their business. Back to the drawing board and the fundamentals for them and many others.
