annual meeting's bad enough.

Actually, we had a funny one yesterday.

I went to the points bet AGM and uh their their gambling competitor, Beta, is the second biggest shareholder with twenty-seven percent, but they're controlled by this Japanese company, Mixi.

And so I asked the question, I said, Oh, you know, last year Beta voted against everything.

Um what's happened this year?

And the chairman Brett Payton said, Well, as you can see on the remuneration report and the proxies, it's ninety-nine percent in favor.

So, you know, they're okay, we don't mind them.

And then this message comes through, This is the better person here.

We just want it on the record that we voted against the remuneration report and caused a strike.

So in other words, they'd voted at the meeting, which rarely happened.

So they've gone in there to the meeting.

The chairman thinks he's got ninety nine percent and avoided a real strike.

He's gloating about it and then they've gone bang.

And I'd like to think that was b partly because of my question had got the chairman gloating and Matt Tripp was probably listening in and said, I'll teach you a lesson, son.

Don't take us for granted.

Bang, twenty seven percent against REM strike and put that on the public record, son.

What a gadfly you are, Stephen.

It was a good gadfly moment, that one.

So Yes.

Anyway, enough about us, Alan.
