Did you meen to say 100 million moondance or have they really lost a billion???
Think I got my zeros correct….they lost £910.9 million in the year to September 2003, and ‘only’ £190.3 million in the year to September 2004. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/4097105.stm
In that context, the paint scheme is not really that important!
