Dunno, but if the cabin is empty, they may not upgrade you ? They might upgrade someone else. How many people have already booked on an unassigned cabin basis, so might be given preference for any upgrade ? Phone and ask them.

That has done the trick, diving like a drone despite more visible buys than sells.

Exactly it won't impact. And fuel for the ships will have been bought forward for months/year(s).

It might even be positive if people contemplating holiday plans in the ME, or via flight changes in ME hub airports, decide it might be better to book a cruise instead.

Suddenly down 10% for no apparent reason whatsoever.

Doesn't make a lot of sense to me frankly. If Chat GPT is going to be turned into a sales/comparison tool, it will only take about a nano second for it to be reprogrammed to push the products of any seller willing to pay OpenAI, and OpenAI will willingly take their money. So at best all this does is shift existing comparison engines from one platform to another. It is not going to make one iota of difference. There is no more reason for a consumer to 'trust' ChatGPT to tell them the best deal than they would 'trust' any other engine. And insurance isn't a commodity - cover levels differ, and the reliability of the cover.

Doubtless the AI hypers will keep hyping, but sounds like rubbish to me.

AI is never going to provide unbiased AI product recommendations or advice to consumers because commercial interests will ensure that never ever happens. AI is not going to do away with caveat emptor.

Do we think trackers are still forced buyers ?

Who do we think the buyers are now - The loony shorters ? Fund managers ?

On the 6th September 2024 the SP was 100p. By the 6th September 2025 it had doubled to 200p, and 4 months later doubled again to 400p.

Must be quite rare for a share to 5 bag in just 17 months.

I can't believe that short exists really - perhaps some sort of error.

Excellent opportunity at this price.

There may be some disappointment compared with the higher city pub xmas sales lift. But as the weather warms up one might expect that same xmas spend uplift to shift over into the suburban and country pubs.

Where some other pubs do close, the trade they had will shift to those better managed like Marstons. As ever the smaller companies feel the pinch. Marstons has a large estate which should therefore allow optimisation and scale economies.

Troublesome - I agree Trump has issues - dementia perhaps ?

But there is no conclusive evidence for anthropegenic climate change - it is only an unproven theory - and unfortunately pushed by many paid grifters.

''I sometimes wonder whether Trump has dementia, he is 80 in June.''

I think his rambling stream of consciousness speech at the WEF is prime evidence.

I think you credit Trump with way too much IQ. Shades of Chauncey Gardiner.

There is no Greenland issue because the US can already do as it wishes there. The evidence is that it is just Trump's child like narcissitic ego insisting that he be the first president for over a hundred years to add to US territory. A simple protectorate, dominion, or other treaty could easily be agreed amongst the sir Humphrey's on all sides to save his blushes and to be effectively meaningless and dissolvable. If it uses long words he won't understand a word of it anyway.

Meanwhile China laughs and looks at all the nations it owns around the world - including the UK.

Good update from MAB today.

I sometimes wonder whether Trump has dementia, he is 80 in June.

That detail is commercially sensitive information though.

Isn't there a point that TW. is already at a depressed SP, so poor performance is currently expected and in the price - has been since they made cladding provisions. Where the SP goes tomorrow should depend on actual/forecast vs expectation, and expectation and price are already low here ?

'...then there are ways to achieve that by 'encouraging' sellers...'

I know nothing, I am from Barcelona, but price movement pattern does feel a bit like tree shaking.

Huh? What ? You mean they can only buy on a friday ? que ?

Yes although doesn't entirely make sense to me. These are past numbers being reported now. The cyber attack may have helped NXT numbers but it is future performance which is what matters. And doesn't MKS own half of Ocado Retail.

The idea of ''streamlining the approval process'' is a convenient distraction used by politicians.

What it results in is bad planning and bad building. I gather the latest 'streamlining' will prioritise building over everyone's gardens.

We would do well to remember that houses stand for 100's of years - bad planning condemns future generations to living like rats in a sack.
