I’ll slap you Roger if you ever buy Virgin Blue, Qantas. Though Jetstar at one time in its glorious days ones a gem until they stupidly decided to merger with qantas travel world, seducing existing investors back then with a special dividend. The share price subsequently declined and never looked back. Sad sorry!
