Good morning, everyone, and welcome to our half year presentation Q&A. I hope you've had the opportunity to watch our presentation online and catch up with our trading update.
I believe the presentation highlights the resilient financial performance of the business and how we have carefully managed the business through the cycle. I have numerous items I can pick out from the presentation, but in particular I would like to draw your attention to, firstly, the weekly sales rate at almost 50% above the same time last year. This has given us a forward order book of 21% increase on last year, and we currently have over 13,600 plots sold for the end of the year, with 10 settlements remaining for year-end
