Fair enough, I didn't realise how out of date they actually were, however for any new entrant that would be all they have to go by and many of their 'predictions' have now expired or will expire shortly.

I wonder if they will provide some new guidance, hopefully set in a much more 'mature' time frame, if not then that could be construed as an open ended date by which anything is signed or sold, and that would be a bleak outlook even for the die-hard roses that flourish in the fertilizer.

"I Beg Your Pardon (I Never Promised You a Rose Garden)" is the debut single by Canadian duo Kon Kan, from their 1989 debut album Move to Move.
