Anyone else noticed lots of delays recently. I know the poor posties had to have last Monday and Tuesday off because it was too hot. God knows what they do in warmer countries. However since Tuesday 1st class is taking over a week round here. With the strike next Friday and Monday this is only going to get worse. RMG will be paying out millions in compensation for late deliveries, people not getting medicines, businesses not getting parts, etc. With the CWU determined to cause trouble every year this is a share you'd do well to avoid.

DayTradeNobhed - you caught a bit too much sun today ?

Agreed. Both pretty stupid. Jope dodged a bullet and Emma has overseen the most chaotic demerger ever.
At least ice cream sales must be doing amazing in this heatwave for ULVR.

The average UK house price hit a new record high of £369,968 in July but the market is slowing amid the cost of living squeeze.
The average price of property coming to market saw a sixth consecutive record this month, rising by 0.4%, or £1,354, according to property site Rightmove.

Is this a picture of you DayTradeNobhed ?
T shirt suits you.

Bargain at this SP. Fall is way overdone. 260p a month ago. No brainer BUY.

RNS - 29 June, Adrian R. Marsh bought around 20k shares on-market at roughly £2.92 per share.
An insider buying is a good sign.

Not drivel. Last (full year) results showed a loss. Which is what I said. Suggest you have a read. No government furlough bail out this year , 10% inflation and big increases in NICs, wages and input costs. Next full year results will be interesting.

As I predicted. Didn't expect it to come so soon ! Down over 5% today ... and the full impact of the strikes has not even fed through yet. SP just keeps on falling.

Well said Young Engineer. I'm sure these people saying their local spoons was busy last night are not there from 8am to 11pm seven days a week. The last results say it's making a loss. Seems no end to the downward trend here.

RYA SP currently down 38% since February and more trouble (strikes) to come. SP will be sub 11€ soon.

When I was a school governor in England (a few years ago) in both primary and secondary there was no extra allowance for playground duty, canteen duty nor parents evenings - they were expected to do these extra jobs as part of the role. They also have to ring parents, do sports/plays/revision sessions etc, meetings after school, marking and planning. Not to mention the almost annual changes to school policies and national curriculum. People think they have great holidays but those are usually people that have no idea what the job entails.

Teachers, in my opinion, are underpaid in UK which is one reason why there is always a massive shortage of teachers and such a high level of churn. I would fully support it if the teachers went on strike. If I remember correctly I think they've had a real terms pay cut of 20% since 2010 under the Tories. Compared to average earnings across the economy teacher salaries are at their lowest for 40 years.

Today's SP bears no relevance to the company's real value. That's why it's a massive bargain. Be patient - good things come to those who wait.

Profits and EPS up. Good results and optimistic forecasts but SP driven down by rising interest rates, high inflation and fears of a future recession. In my opinion the SP is very good value. I'm fully invested, so no cash to pile in at the moment or I'd be buying.

Never mind 285p - these are a bargain at 385p. Just seems the markets haven't cottoned on yet.
Excellent set of results. Just a matter of waiting for the momentum to swing back in favour, which it will. In the meantime my next divvi just went up 25%.

eye of the bull - nasty comment. No need to tell someone they've made a big mistake. You never back up your arguments with any reasoning. Just looking for a lower entry price I guess. BOO will be fine if you have a bit of patience. eye of the bull joins my filter bin.

Industrial action by Ryanair cabin crew in Europe in June and July could add to the issues plaguing the travel industry this summer. Belgium are the latest to announce plans to strike that could affect UK fliers, with the earliest date set for this Friday, June 24. They join cabin crews in France, Italy, Spain and Portugal who have confirmed strikes set during the busy summer holiday season. The strike in Belgium is another blow for the budget carrier which operates 17 planes from Charleroi and two aircraft from Brussels.

At the centre of the disputes are wage levels and pay for pre-take-off and post-landing duties. Unions said they were planning to walkout in Belgium and Portugal from June 24-26, a strike in France from June 25-26, and in Italy on June 25. They also announced plans for a strike in Spain on June 24-26, June 30, and July 1-2.

This will be my 3rd and final tranche. Let them run now. I really can't understand the big drop today, nor why IBST has fallen so much these past 2 years, but hey, I see no reason not to buy more and my reasons for buying remain the same as when I initially bought last year. I'm happy to be contrary to the market moves and I've managed to reduce my average price. Hoping for a bounce. Good luck all.

Trust The Guardian to try and stir up this old smear campaign again. I see they are very careful not to call BooHoo any "names" but they are defaming BooHoo by association with these articles and BooHoo should come out with a statement in the strongest terms. Let's repeat again - it was the supplier factories breaking the law not BooHoo. BooHoo have done everything possible to try and remove any "dodgy" suppliers from their contracts. BooHoo have never been fined nor taken to court for this. They also have far stricter policies than most other manufacturers/retailers.

Nice weather today - 32 degrees - is that a BBQ I smell or just the shorts burning ? I wonder if markets today have digested the news and are realising that BOO's guidance hadn't actually changed from previous update and the SP was ridiculously oversold. Need a few director buys to take this back to the 80s.
