I'm up +0.166% on the day today (FTSE100 +0.261%).

Best rises: BA. +1.82%, BLND +1.60% and IGG +1.31%.

Worst falls: S32 -2.40%, SMDS -1.41% and DGE -1.33%.

Armms spending going up, helps BA. SMDS follows IP further down. Dollar also weaker against the GBP.

Just been organising a transfer to Digital Voice. Our phones needed replacing anyway.

Retinopathy scan went OK. Mrs DF had to drive me home, which was a better than expected experience.

I finished up 0.77%.

Sorry to hear that Aleman - I missed the fact that you were in the wars.

Well done on the Quiz DrB - I used to enjoy our Monday evening pub quiz, which never recovered after covid.

A few showers and a high of 10C - feeling and looking more like early March than late April.

[mrphil] 23/4/2024 17:21

Didn't end too badly, +0.39% FSFL, WJG & NG. leading the pack.

Aleman, what was the sedation for, what did they do to you?

Well done on the quiz DrB, easy when you know the answers! 😁

blueliner, that's a brew I've not heard of!

Tennis this evening, must dash before it gets dark!

[blueliner] 23/4/2024 16:57

+0.65 folio, {FTSE All-Share +0.37%]
Seemed to get a second wind.

Top gainers : BA., Britain to increase defence spending.
CMCX, PLUS, platforms gain
JLEN, AEWU, SREI, better day for IT's.

RIO, worst faller.

Tonights brew, Brew by Numbers IPA from Morden Wharf Rd SE10.
Max 11C from 3C, frost early.

[dr biotech] 23/4/2024 16:53

Hope it all resolves itself Aleman

Another decent day +0.85% API/MEGP the only two significant gainers, but no major losers. 21-6 to the blues.

Won the pub quiz in a tight field. Of the 10 or so teams we came top with 76, bottom team had 71. Last time out we were about 15 off the pace.

[malcolm caton] 23/4/2024 16:48

In spite of being clobbered by TBLD ended +0.4%

Best risers ABF,AVON,OCDO.BA.,RR,PLUS

Worst fallers TBLD.HBR,EQLS,RIO.

A showery afternoon,the lawn is growing to fast need a dry day to tame it.

[aleman] 23/4/2024 16:45

+0.5%.

Some sun this afternoon. 11.3C after 5.5C

Hospital went better than last time but more sedation administered that might wear off. I just want to avoid the week of massive swelling from last time and then the week of aches and pains as that went down. Neither was considered normal. Scans to come next to try find out what is causing the odd aches and pains - only taken 7 months to get them offered.

[mrphil] 23/4/2024 14:50

Good gains earlier, all gone now.

[mrphil] 23/4/2024 08:33

Morning All.

And yes Skinny, Happy St George's Day!

[malcolm caton] 23/4/2024 08:29

Morning,

Grey overcast and drizzling here,

You win some ABF and loose some TBLD.

On the whole slightly red so far.

[aleman] 23/4/2024 08:25

Good morning. Drizzling. I was expecting dry and sunny. Maybe later?

Started slightly positive. I'm happy just to see the back of those endless mall falls for a while. Getting half way back to breakeven feels like a win after that.

Busy day on including a trip to hospital for a follow-up. Hopefully goes better than last time.

[skinny] 23/4/2024 08:17

Oh, happy Saint George's day!

[skinny] 23/4/2024 06:40

Good Morning.

Further to my post yesterday morning and more examples of 'Broken Britain' :-



The response from the National Highways, smacks of the same arrogance shown by the Post Office regarding the Horizon scandal.



The FTSE futures indicate and all time high today.

Rain overnight and currently 6C.

[gateside] 22/4/2024 21:38

Same as you MrPUp 1.21% on the day

[deanforester] 22/4/2024 19:04

I'm up +1.375% on the day today (FTSE100 +1.621%).

Best rises: S32 +4.10%, VOD +3.91% and TSCO +3.45%.

Only 3 fell: WDS -2.37%, SMDS -1.06% and IMI -0.17%.

No idea about what happened. Presumably SMDS reacted to the price of IPC falling. No idea re WDS or S32, opposite reactions from down under.

Retinopathy scan tomorrow morning.

DF

[aleman] 22/4/2024 17:14

+0.4% mainly down to CLIG. Was just over twice that just before the close and not sure what dropped it.

Cold, sunless day with a little light rain. Heating run at times. 11.3C after 4.6C

[mrphil] 22/4/2024 17:05

Decent day for my lot, although well behind the ftse at +1.21% with top risers AV., SBRY & GSK

[skinny] 22/4/2024 17:05

I finished up 1.15%.

The FTSE was close to testing the all time high @8,047.06 earlier.

We escaped the forecast rain, but it still feels chilly with a high of 10C.

[blueliner] 22/4/2024 16:51

Mine fell away towards the close.
Folio finished +0.87% from 1+% earlier.

BA., JSG, ASY, CLIG(after update), HSBA, leading gainers.
WDS bringing up the rear.

Thanks for the weekly results wllm.

M&S dinner tonight, helped down with Chilean sauvignon.

Today was a rainday, non stop but not heavy.

[malcolm caton] 22/4/2024 16:46

Up 1.2%

Almost all stocks blue .
Only fallers EMG,AWE,ADF,SNR,

[dr biotech] 22/4/2024 16:46

+1.1%

Decent day for me but hopefully others have done better. API/AUSC/VLX/MTEC/AV all added more than 0.1% to the pot (MTEC +56%, after the rise becomes my 2nd smallest holding after CPI, is now worth 0.4% of my total)

Biggest fallers KITW/MEGP. The are actually my overall best performing holdings so can be forgiven this time. Pub Quiz this evening.

Interesting to see the full video of the "openly jewish" man and the policeman - from the 13mins it looks like he is there partly to agitate the marchers. Its perhaps not as straightforward as it first appeared.

[kiwi2007] 22/4/2024 10:26

The Terriers lost once more and are now destined for division one next season.

Incompetence has run throughout the club, at all levels, for the last couple of years.
Naivety by the new American owner who sacked Warnock and also appointed the Director of Football , a man described by an ex-board member as 'like a second hand car salesman with egg down the front of his suit'. Onwards and downwards from the day he arrived.

Even worse, I've actually bought shares with similar managements.

[mrphil] 22/4/2024 10:25

Another interesting development!

[mrphil] 22/4/2024 10:21

Morning All.

Great first run out of the year yesterday for Drive it Day, we had 9 Stags and an old Volvo for our run out to the Haynes Museum. Bit of traffic near the museum due to works on the A303. We had an interesting moment at some roadworks traffic lights in one of the local villages where a couple of guys in high vis vests waved traffic from our direction through on a red light so we assumed they were stuck. But when we reached the cars waiting at the other end they were on green but couldn't go anywhere as we were all in the way, and the jam that way was miles long. We came to the conclusion they were just a couple of random guys out to have some Sunday morning fun!

Having dropped out of positive territory I see we have have just three representatives there now! Looking quite blue so far today though.
