Just to clarify my remarks on GPG. The reason why I said GPG was
risky is that relative to bank fixed interest and property *all* shares and
*all* unsecured notes are risky. I did not wish to imply any slur on
GPG or its management.

Also the reason that GPG has such a low dividend yield is that
management have determined that this is the most tax efficient way to
build shareholder wealth, as Hoop suggested.

So stick with it Hoop and I am sure you will do well, if the track record
of management is anything to go by. I'm sorry I don't have GPG
shares myself, but I can't own everything that is good!
