Nice buy, personally I won't pay more than 70p, seen some buys today at 70.02p, paid too much IMO. lol

I am not a holder of this share but have been on many occasions when it looked value. From my point of view they are here for the long term and will continue to grow. I bought a lap top from them last week. I will buy a television from them when I am ready, my wife looks at their furniture. We both buy their clothes. Food and wine is good and they have offers to tempt. They still cater for the over 50's, 60's market ( but all age ranges as well)and that is where IMO there is future market growth as the over 50's have the cash. I see this slight decline in SP as a buying op. The only thing stopping me buying today is that the FT may take an overall drop over the next few trading days and i need to factor this in before buying.

Don't know why, thankfully didn't buy, but something tells me one day this may blossom. But for now..not for me.

Mail on Sunday's comment "FuturaGene is a risky investment, but if its technology works, the stock could soar. Currently at 70p, the shares make an exciting punt for the adventurous investor. Buy." My comment - watch and buy below 70p

Here we go again, any reason for the hike? anyone?

Yes, as you and I have been saying, good company , good price to buy in at , and now above £3, as it should be. Happy investing and GL with your other investments.

I agree this is a good share to have and price is good too. Should be in a position to buy a few of these in the morning.

Would like this share above 466p please. preferably before divi date of 13 Jan.

Been busy and missed today's low, what a bargain, don't think it will fall again today. If it does I'm in

Free up some cash and buy some tmw, very good price now.

Sold RBS to buy these, not one of my better decisions selling RBS, still I think BLND is a good buy.

up to £4.73 this morning, happy with that, target £5

Marston’s is mostly a pub operator, deriving income from selling its tenants and licensees drinks, charging them rent, and taking a cut from gaming machines, although it manages about 500 pubs itself. About 16% of revenues come from brewing. Amongst its famous brews are Marston’s Pedigree, and Banks’s. The company looks quite strong. It’s profitable in accounting terms, and more so in cash terms, debt came down (albeit by a small fraction) and the only concern about its operating performance is what looks like a temporary decline in profitability.Meanwhile, by putting its pubs up as security, Marston’s reduces the cost of the borrowing and the company will not have to refinance the securitised portion of its debt for decades.But MARS is on the attack. Seemingly, it doesn’t need more cash to survive, but it plans to spend £140m of the £166m it raised accelerating its plan to build sixty new family-friendly pubs over the next three years. By taking advantage of recession in the property and construction sectors it expects to find new sites more easily and build new pubs more cheaply enabling it to earn a higher return.Its total liabilities, which include other liabilities like the deficit on its pension scheme, are 68% of its total assets. In other words it owes more than half of what it owns.

£3m @4.70, big boys buying???

Certainly could be on the cards, lots of European Insurance companies would be interested. too. Worth watching.

LP 469.2 - 469.4, could be 1% up on the day.

LP now 468.7 - 468.8

466.8 - 467.2

LP 466.5 -466.8
