Nick Willing writes and directs this British horror starring Olivia Williams and Matthew Modine. When renovations expert Meg Hamilton (Williams) and her husband Alex (Modine) decide to relocate their family to their newly-purchased country house on the wild Yorkshire Moors, Meg becomes increasingly worried as members of her restoration team begin leaving the project. After their first night in the house, Meg's daughter Penny (Antonia Clarke) claims she has seen a ghostly figure in her room and, later, when Meg discovers a secret attic room housing a mysterious painting depicting the murder of the former lady of the manor, she starts to think that Penny's suspicions of the house being haunted could be true...
This thesis examines the behaviour of retail petroleum markets, with a case study examining prices in Perth, Australia. The aim of the thesis is two-fold. Firstly, it aims to extend the Edgeworth Cycles literature by showing how a simple, distance-based model of duopolistic competition can give rise to Edgeworth Cycles. Secondly, it makes use of the results of this model to build a model of the structure of the Perth market and to explore competition in that network. In the empirical component of the thesis, I explore whether network structure influences both the prices charged by each retail petroleum outlet and the shape of price cycles exhibited by each retail petroleum outlet. In addition, having performed a spectral analysis on prices and finding that most retail petroleum outlets do not follow a single cycle, but in fact use cycles of differing lengths, mostly seven and ten-day cycles, I explore whether network structure influences these choices or not. In the empirical analysis, I find evidence that network structure does, in fact, influence both price and the nature of cycles.
