    Up 0.4% I believe. And they are putting up costs.

    Back home:

    "The CBI’s business optimism index has risen to -8, from a positively gloomy -47 in September.

    And the balance of firms reporting higher exports rose to +8 over the last three months."

    And Wallonia is a superb example of why the EU is such an unmitigated disaster.
    Glad we will soon be out of it.
