[ST] That awful sense of deja vu



I've just picked up the weekly UK comic (MCN), and there's a long article
about the fortunes of Triumph in it.

In summary, it claims that the company's been operating at a loss of between
GBP 1.2 and 5.2 million - currently 2.9 million - since '91. This despite an
increase in turn-over from GBP 10.9 M in '92 to GBP 105.9 M in '00.

I wonder just how deep John Bloor's pocket really is?

Despite this, the article ended on encouraging note, suggesting that much of
the recent deficit was as a result of tooling up for new models, and the
commissioning of a new factory.

Let's hope things are on the up... for those of us in our 'second puberty'
the signs are getting worryingly familiar.  ~:-|
