Only slightly up on last month (35,100) but forecast was a fall to 34,300.
So 1,000 over forecast and 7,000 more than this time last year. OK I suppose.

    :D
    You know what this says to me?
    Nothing either way.
    Not news that is bullish, or bearish.

    Which means we're all gonna have to put up with "the spring bounce is coming get in quick/no it isn't, doom is around the corner" threads for another month at least.
    It's getting harder & harder to keep the government in the manner to which they have become accustomed.

    Must have been a couple of those nice days we had. If it hadn't have rained last week, just think what the figures would have been!
