This is the bit I like:

"EPS came in over 20% higher than forecast and this was after forecasts had been upgraded in August.
Forecast EPS for the current year was 4p before the results but will soon be raised."

Chester : The share price has doubled each of the last two years , can't see why it won't do so again. MM's won't sell you many and anything over 1k attracts a premium. Definitley not for trading but one to sit on.

I am confident that we will be able to maintain good progress through the

Extract from MD's statement :
"Operating margins are being maintained or improved over all our areas of
activity. Together with a broadening client base, this makes us well placed to
increase turnover and profits. The business generates a strong cashflow and we
