That 91k shares is still 91k more than a lot of people toon. Not sure how you'd feel compared to Elon and Bezos.
Lovelyboy
Yes traded them many times through tdwaterhouse on T20 s & had a core holding , weren’t they one of the original phone chip companies,
Can’t remember after all this Rum , some serious gyrations in stocks then .
Cheers
Monkey ,
Crazy times those, no internet all phone orders took hours , & companies with nothing on paper being valued at bonkers prices QXL was going to be the pre - EBay but collapsed .
Rums all Round
Never realised you were in ARM Tilly ... I was a bit late to the party on that one and ended up being a disaster for me when it went private. Shame, it was an awesome co. with mind bending potential.

Reading all the posts here today I feel totally inadequate in the fact that I own just over 91,000 shares, rather sad really.
Jesus, Capt'n - I remember having shares in Bookham and QXL. Almost put me off investing for life (laughs)/
Wow, some great stories here. Thank you for sharing. I was also in SXX and lost a lot there. Wish I'd picked up on the EUA talk at the time haha!
It was mentioned on the Frr board, late 2019, can't remember who by.
Morning All
Bought my first lot 1999 paper certificate, with Arm holdings , Qxl.com, Barrett developments & many other dot com boomers & busters ( mainly due to 9/11 stock crash )
Kept my Eurasia only a small holding then added 2018 & loaded up in summer/ autumn 2019 especially after Bank engagement,
My brain is frazzled with Rum , but remember Mac , stockdake ,Anders uk , Andre01, Ian ,Jim jam,& many other quality posters & also remember a huge infestation of Bots .
Then went to Velvet mermaids bar & Grill & picked up Septic Lil with her quivering Lobster Pot .
Rums all Round
Like many of the others think I picked it up as a cross ramp from Sxx board.. Can't remember who though. I foolishly put most of my Sxx dregs into Trx and lost a load more. Put the remainder in here for a small holding and thought it was another disaster as went into suspension two days later. Would have given up at that point had it not been for the likes of Tilly etc. Thankfully loaded up after suspension to an avarage of 16.5p....... Hoping to at least make my losses back in there entirety.
The same with me Monkey, JT Macs on the AML board. I’ve 275,000 at 26p.
Read a times article about the sinosteel deal, was invested in SXX, so thought it could be a good bargain for something bigger later on.
Good one Tonwin.:-))))
Whilst on a touring holiday in Russia I came across a bloke stood at the side of the road reading a map. I asked him if he was lost, he said I'm looking for montegorsh, I have shares in Eurasia mining and I want to see the mines for myself, but i have got a dodgy satnav. I gave him directions and he thanked me and told me to invest all my spare cash in Eurasia mining as it would soon sell and be worth £3.50, so I did at 17p. I think he's name was Rowka.
It sounds a though if Portsmouth1 s address becomes know to us ,once it’s complete he’ll be taking bottle deliveries. Certainly from me.:-) A nice crate or box of something nice.
July 20 at 19 p brother introduced me
Average now at 17.4 p not the biggest holding in the world but happy
I followed the incessant ramping of EUA by Wandgrabbit on the old III SXX board, when it was 0.6p. I was much derided on the SXX board for following him.
I ended up investing £60k so I have a very large debt of gratitude to him.
Same here sxx from someone cant remember,sorry!
Hoping this will cover my 50 k loss
Another SXX survivor who got a tip from Portsmouth1. If I had managed to scrap together some money but 3 days sooner than I did my average would be pretty much half the 0.98 it is. But hey, I'll make everything I lost back on SXX and then some. Plus with the things I have learnt along the way I have already found a bunch of stocks that will make me more money than EUA if only due to number of shares held in comparison.
EUA was briefly mentioned on the AML board by JTMacs the day suspension was lifted and I decided to do some research. Liked what I read and bought in heavily the next day (even selling my AML shares). Started off with a holding of 58k and have built it up to just under 300k since. Up 73% so far.
It is one of three stocks in my portfolio and, undoubtedly, the largest.
Owe you a magnum of champers, JT :)
GLA.
Same as Bellers and Mark. Tip from Portsmouth on sxx.
I know cross ramps are normally frowned upon but that was an absolute belter for a lot of people.
Owe that guy a pint / pub / brewery*

*delete as applicable depending on outcome.
Someone mentioned EUA on the GGP bb.......but remember noting it at 0.5p a year earlier did some research and bought in Oct 19 after banks Rns , watched the Dmitry interview @Nov19 and saw SP drop from 4p to 2p but luckily for me that’s when I bought heavily.
Not sure if there’ll ever be another EUA or GGP but you can never rule it out !
I started investing after hearing on SXX the same as Bellers. If it was Portsmouth1 - thank you.
I got in 1st at 1.8p before the rise to 4p and tree shake all the way back down to 2p. Lost a load on SXX but was worth it has made so much more from this. Still own 1.2 million shares.
This is how I arrived, Portsmouth1 tipped us off on SXX
Buy
“RE: ALBA - The Next EUA 8000% gain coming12 Oct 2020 10:32
Hi first post on here,
Bought in @4.1 5ks worth tipped this share on eurasia board, bought in there @0.84.and tipped a lot of sxx about that share,
Researched this share, and feel it has massive potential. Eurasia is a once in a lifetime share but it may go close. “
Thankfully I listened cos I I was £54k down on that 1. Thanks Portsmouth1
Found Eua,on of all places,the LSE users also hold,section......of Sxx page,traded in n out then the lightbulb moment occured,bought n held
