I'm happy for them, Equiteq, that's the main thing. It doesn't matter who they are. Just as long as they're doing well, you dig? / And this is how well -

Very nice. It's a great achievement. / I think we need to hear from David Jorgenson ...
Commenting upon the award, David Jorgenson, CEO of Equiteq said "I'm thrilled that for the second year in a row, an independent judging committee of top M&A industry experts determined that Equiteq should receive another highly acclaimed award.

Thrilled. Proud. 'Great!' / Now David Fergusson ... 'Who?!' Shut up!
David Fergusson, Co-CEO and President of The M&A Advisor said "Since the introduction of the International M&A Awards in 2009, we have continued to witness the growth of cross-border M&A outpace that of domestic dealmaking volume.

That's who! 'He doesn't sound too thrilled or proud.' Leave him alone!
...
Well, that's it, and that's enough. It's too hot for finance, dear reader(s). 'It's a bit cooler today, boss.' A bit.
Anything else? 'Politics?' Uh. Do we have to? All right. Boris Johnson had an interview with Eddie Mair yesterday on BBC Radio 4. Talk about a car crash! 'Ha!' It was like Ben Swain being interviewed by Jeremy Paxman in The Thick of It. 'He spelt just with four Js!' Boris was like a chicken, an enormous chicken.
Music? Well, I hope we have wintry weather by the weekend because I want to record my two songs. I can't keep rehearsing them. I've almost rehearsed them to death. 'A bit like the Karate Kid, Mikey!' Exactly like the Karate Kid, Voice! 'And he played guitar too, didn't he?' Eh? Oh yeah. In that other film.
