Well, we've not heard a peep from these since the last trading update way back in February when they did say that 'earnings will be materially above market expectations'.

Results to the end of March could be due at any time now.

MM charging a premium to offer, next move up due soon perhaps.

Is there another article there or was this a miss post LBO?

Noticed that the spread has tightened up to 10.00 - 10.25, seems to be healthy demand here :o)

Through ten pence. :-)

Nice break of previous high, should clear the way for the 12p assault and beyond.

Couldn't resist a top up today also, doesn't take much buying to move these.

Judging by how the shares are moving today, i wonder if they sell 'flying carpets'? Hopefully they are flying off the shelves and out the doors at any rate. :0))

HOUSE hunters in Yorkshire have been among the keenest in the country in getting onto the property ladder through the Government's Help to Buy programme.

Figures have revealed that 2,780 homes in the region have been sold under the flagship mortgage support scheme so far, the seventh-highest uptake rate in the whole of the Uk

if anyone actually tried to buy a decent amount of this they would move it considerably

Added this morning.

Nice consolidation period since the last trading update at the end of February, where they said that results to be materially better than market expectations.

Year end was 31st March and on TDW they are showing June for the full year results, which seems about right.

Might see some interest here in the run up to results?

More small buying creeping in again.

Nice bullish write-up in Shares mag yesterday.

[cfro] 25/4/2014 10:45

On the move now..:0)

Im also on board today, thanks to ic2 (above) in prompting me.

Forward forecasts i see remain unchanged with a forward pe of around nine, so v cheap.

It seems that with the hosing market particularly in London being so bouyant, co's like UCG, Victoria carpets, Topps Tiles etc are tail-coating and should benefit hugely imo.
