One thing that does occur to me obviously with all the improvements and modernisations and so on, where are you? To some degree it rolls into the question I will be asking later on. How much have you managed to take the unions with you in the last couple of years and where are you now with them?

Good, excellent. I have just two specific questions: one is, we have already mentioned Manchester Square.

Mike (Lee), the point about that is that it is simply not the case. The number of people in that survey who said, "We will pay nothing," was 40%.
