It's like going, this is a comparison I use too often in too many ways. It's like we used to do with the kids, which was that we would go to the west coast of Scotland for the Maybank holiday weekend every year, and without paying any attention to what the weather forecast was, because you needed to book in advance to get a cheap place and so on. And sometimes that meant famously. And you know, family history is a good thing eating our sandwiches in a phone booth on the ferry pier between sky and Razi because it was raining too hard, didn't want to sit in the car to have our picnic. But sometimes it meant, you know, swimming off white sand beaches in arise in 20 degree weather, and it looked and felt like the Caribbean. So you win some and you lose some. Then if this is not, well, they're not as well prepared as you'd like, then we'll talk anyway. We'll talk
