Probably not a blip but hopefully it's going to go a bit faster...

It was due to the cost of Osbourne's "man of the people" burger.

Hopefully the recent good weather will be making up for some of the rubbish we endured earlier this year when it comes to the economy.

It's welcome news considering that the EU zone is still in recession. Un-hitching our economy from the losers can only improve out trade and growth.

Gets my vote

Manufacturing output surged in June at the strongest pace since the end of 2010, according to figures from the Office for National Statistics (ONS).

The UK's services sector has expanded at its fastest pace since December 2006, a survey has indicated.

The Markit/CIPS Services Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) rose to 60.2 in July from 56.9 the month before, a stronger showing than economists had expected.

Any reading above 50 indicates growth.

The numbers complete a trio of positive PMI figures for July, after strong showings in both the construction and manufacturing sectors last week.

Markit said its UK All Sector PMI, which combined the three, was 59.48, the highest since its records began in January 1998.

More good news on the economy. Of course there's still a long way to go but could this be 'the end of the beginning' so far as recovery is concerned?

The UK goods trade deficit shrank to its smallest amount in almost a year in June, official figures have shown, helped by a rise in exports.

The Office for National Statistics (ONS) said the gap between imports and exports narrowed to £8.1bn in June, down from £8.7bn in May.

The ONS also said construction output grew more in the second quarter of the year than it had first estimated.
