Re: why does the market not like the res... I think the results are pretty positive overall. I think a good time to top-up!

Re: why does the market not like the results... the meaningful fall surprised me too.. it went up a fair bit just ahead of results - back only to where it was a month or so back granted - perhaps in anticipation of very good results and now they turn out to be good/ish... etc...and UK margins under some pressure from a not great base level is not ideal either.. thankfully I had sold down a good chunk of my position recently .. I added a small amount back at 107p this morning though... as I think the future for TCG will be relatively bright ( China and Expedia both appettising but Brexit/inflation less so..)All im

Re: Should I add more here ? yes, those foreign parts have there selling points...But our UK resorts do have there merits... if only people listened to locasl forecasts, which can reveal better weather forecasts than some of the more generalised national forecasts.But its one area that the UK should work at... our resorts do need a make over to brighten up these places and add some new attractions...

Re: Should I add more here ? no offence but South Shields, not quite up there with Nice, Monte Carlo and Acapulco or even Torremolinos if you like your places full of wide screen televisions and English pubs serving bangers and mash.Just been to Omis in Croatia - very nice and reasonable too, under a quid for ice creams, which compares favourably with £4 a pop in France last year.Still one of my best holiday's was1975, caravan site in Cornwall called Gannel View (could only see River Gannel through a telescope). The rain was so torrential that my dads Vauxhall Viva's windscreen wiper blew off when crossing Bodmin Moor

Re: Should I add more here ? Well, Standard Life seem to think they are worth supporting at these levels, judging from recent RNS.Ive taken some profits, but who knows..;; the Euro v Pound rate sees a strengthening Euro, so they could translate well on the profits side and dividend..Also, the faqct that they have a strong base in Germany could be favourable..I`m not sure the holiday trading numbers will be brilliant... we`ll see in a few weeks. Outlook statements will be read with keen attention, with issues surrounding Middle East and other destinations. But UK is not great for weather forecasts, although I had a nice break in South Shields recently.Beaches are top notch, and sea front is now well presented. On a bright sunny day, this place is hard to beat. and plenty of sight seeing in Northumberland and Durham areas..

Re: Should I add more here ? I've been involved since dark days too montu...and sold out in 40's p when my average hold price was less than 20p and then it went up to 180 p and I kicked myself hard and a lot.. and then it came way back down and I got involved again.. so a rollercoaster ride where nothing is sure !

Re: Should I add more here ? I've been invested in TCG through the dark days (lows) of 14p. I've topped up along the journey. My take is that the long recovery is not yet complete. Still work for the company to do but solid progress has been made. There's definitely more upside to come imho. The only big worry is Brexit and how that might impact the travel industry. There's a big question mark around that, so that might yet put the brakes on!

Re: Should I add more here ? looking at the chart this share was 60 ish p a year ago .. so it has nearly doubled in that time.. and we've averaged one post a week here in that time.. the irony(And on chart reflection I'm pleased to say that - arrogant - Hugh was more than somewhat wrong here,, and even if it comes off meaningfully from here STOPS would ensure people long here in the last year will make a very tidy profit, whatever)

Re: Should I add more here ? Where are Sir Singh and Hugh when we need some fun participation here now.The share slowly but surely ticks up over recent months and effectively no participation by anyone here.. funny in itself.I did that top up this morning at 104p and think this company is incrementally turning itself around. It has been a lovely rally from 80's p here .. hard to say how much legs are left in this rally now.. but hopefully 10 or 15p more is doable.Ps; well you've been proven at least somewhat right Sir Singh and you've at least somewhat wrong Hugh.

Should I add more here ? I've maintained a mid sized position here and thankfully it's decently up.. and todays nice rise helps too.. I'm not sure why its up today but TUI was also .. so sector or stock analyst upgrade I'm guessing..i'd promised myself I'd buy more if/when it reached 100p but now it kinda has I'm unsure.. indeed on past performance I wondering should I maybe sell some .. Any charters out there with a view on whether this has moved into a new uptrend range now?Generally, I think this company is incrementally turning itself around but the consumer backdrop will be tricky in 2018 imho.. so while I could say there is still plenty of room for upside here ..I'm not very sure on that ?
