The internet, rather than hurting a business-like Stanley Gibbons, in fact does the opposite. It allows a unique single iconic location in London to reach a worldwide audience inexpensively, and for a business so rich in intellectual property and knowledge, to offer an engaging and immersive experience tailored to the interest of the customer. The building blocks for a great business are there in terms of the brand, heritage, reputation and capability. We look forward to updating you in the coming years on their progress. The following is taken from Gary Channon's latest 02 report to investors in the Phoenix UK Fund: We invest by making business and stock specific decisions, one by one, whilst paying attention to the overall risk profile of the portfolio.

  • My Autobiography
    F SOLID GOLD MY AUTOBIOGRAPHY The Ultimate Rags to Riches Tale Forward by Robin Pilley David Gold, Chairman of Ann Summers, Gold Group International and West Ham United, is a man who has risen from humble and poverty stricken beginnings and achieved a status in life beyond what even he could have ever envisaged. Born an East End Jewish cockney lad, he was at the very bottom of life’s social strata. After a childhood characterised by war, poverty and disease he set out to change his life, and in the process he also changed the lives of everyone close to him. He understands and embraces the importance of change. He also changed the fortunes of his beloved football club, developed an iconic brand in Ann Summers and was influential in liberating the sexual behavior of the great British public. Now, Gold brings his unparalleled ability for change to his inspirational autobiography. This completely reworked edition, ‘The Ultimate Rags to Riches Tale’, focuses more on his personality, his remarkable business achievements, his life- affirming story and his reflections and recollections on a world that changed beyond recognition within his own lifetime. And most importantly, he speaks candidly about how he softened the British stiff upper lip and almost single-handedly brought sex onto the UK’s high streets and changed our sex lives for the better. No one has done more to prove that dreams can come true and now you can read his exceptional autobiography exclusively written to show just 2 what one man can achieve from the most humble beginnings.
