The peak before then was December 2018 @ £32.900 so it is fair to say that gold prices have increased by around 40% in a little over 3 years. I think Paul was referring to the start of the boom that happened in 2019 not a couple of months into it which I think is fair enough. All arguing against this is pure pedantry which is fine of course but it is what it is
I'll try that argument and cherry pick the optimum exchange rate date next time I go and change some world beating sterling into those pesky euros.
