A wummin of child bearing age.......I've found the perfect toy girl......lol
I sometimes think you might have been my first boyfirend. Mother didn't have enough wool to knit him a balaclava big enough for his heid. See Richard Thompson comments in acoustic or otherwise version presumably on Sting's heid in Here Comes Geordie. Anyhow GS handling the sale of PB so would expect a good price? There will be one or two holders don't want it sold off at all - all part of the rich tapestry of opinions. Need to scoot now. Kids still on holiday from school.
BBY is scorching.....lol.....in profit already....bet ure gled am back
That brought back memories...I was about 5 or 6...going doon the watter on the Waverley to Rothesday for the Broons day oot. An old busker was on the deck in brilliant sunshine, playing The Blue Tango on his squeeze box.....hit the beach and up to the knees when an aircraft carrier came steaming along......the wave it created went right over the top of me........had to bury myself in the hot sand to dry my clothes off...or ma granny would have skelped me for getting wet.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mIcJqyU7yLw
My strawberry tarts are on fire!
Something a little different from previous you tubes on here lol http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ut5JIsKfLu4
Must drop in and wind him up a bit....been away from the boards for a while
Is it the autumn already. I was on the Waverely yesterday - coldest day in a while, rain and mist some of the time. Decided not to get off at Tarbert but it was a long day shall we say. Glasgow in its glory just now eh. See if I can use my birthday money to join you in few here but I've a few non-share type things I want to get for myself. Need to get making the pastry for my strawberry tarts. Found a bottle of Bradfords jelly filler in Brodie's Country Fayre. Btw Hughsie was sending you his love on the fres bb lol. x
Also put in a limit sell for 256....stuff the shorters, they're not borrowing mine to play with.
Just bought in on the drop...always good for a few P recovery.....how's life
in share price for the holders here but guess it could mean that there is some big interest in PB from other quarters. There will doubtless be some annoying folk posting on a bb near you that they foresaw this drop in hindsight and sold out yesterday. Carillion down too.
Construction group Balfour Beatty has called off its planned merger with rival Carillion after Carillion said it would only press ahead with the deal if Balfour ditched plans to sell its Parsons Brinckerhoff US engineering division.
I have been invested here in my NISA for 4 years. I was wondering about the BB Business model, does anyone know if road maintenance services such as Gritting, De-Icing and snow clearance are any part of their business? The reason I ask is because this area seems to be fast growing with road gritting nowadays being planned well in advance. It seems to me that it is becoming more important in terms of forward planning. This means that building relationships in local authorities, in government and in councils could help in terms of new road building business and not just road maintenance. There are many players already in the road maintenance sector but a quick look at one, that is specialised in gritting using its own gritting lorries - see here: http://www.de-ice.co.uk/ shows how relationships can be built with potential stakeholders. I think, as road safety becomes paramount, we will see more and more of these types of businesses flourish. I like the look of this business model and think that it would lead on to other deals for BB. If they get in at the ground level and involved with the nitty gritty of things like gritting then I think we could be on to a winner for future road building and maintenance deals. I think that in this way that this De-Ice company and similar ones seem to be showing the way. Any thoughts?
Well done. I had a wee bit of luck with kaz myself this week but sold here back in the £2.40s but mustn't grumble as I put the money into the tsb flotation. Very odd to see a share rise like this and for there to be so few posts on the bb on the day in question but well done all long term holders. Think I was getting the blame from some for lse having a crack down on off topic posts on here. Not guilty but whoever is knows who they are and didn't have the guts to step forward and say so. Whoever you are - I suspect you'll be a trader rather than an investor - I do have the guts to say that a bb should be fine with a mixture of both on topic and off topic posts but the off topic stuff had taken over here. However, plenty of on topic stuff to discuss now for those still invested here. Good luck.
With all the volatility of this share I put a stop on at 240 it opened at high , and the stop came in at £259-.90 making £810 profit from a £6000 investment...Lucky Guy...can't believe it...could have triggered at 240. Will come in again if there is a drop....but good luck to all you holders....I'm more than happy..

PRESS: Balfour Beatty And Carillion In Talks Over GBP3 Billion Merger - Sky News Thu, 24th Jul 2014 18:33 LONDON (Alliance News) - Balfour Beatty PLC and Carillion PLC are in talks over the creation of a construction services powerhouse via a GBP3 billion merger, according to Sky News on Thursday, citing people familiar with the matter. A merger of the two FTSE 250 British construction firms, which have flagship projects like London's Olympics Aquatics Centre and the redevelopment of Liverpool's Anfield football stadium, would put them on track to enter into the FTSE 100 index as a joint entity. "This would create a national leader and a world-class support services company," one person familiar with the talks told Sky News. Balfour, which has a market capitalisation of GBP1.6 billion, has seen its shares perform poorly recently after sacking its Chief Executive Andrew McNaughton in May after just over a year in control. On the other hand, Carillion, which is valued at GBP1.45 billion, has seen shares increase by more than 13% during the last year. Balfours shares closed down 1.1% at 232.1 pence and Carillion shares closed up 0.7% at 338.7 pence on Thursday. Sky News said that, although it is unclear how far advanced the talks are and whether it will go ahead at all, Carillion's Chief Executive Richard Howson is likely to run the merged entity. The news comes after Balfour announced a profit warning earlier this month due to worse performance at its construction business but it said at the time it was continuing to explore the possibility of selling its US-based consulting and engineering group Parsons Brinckerhoff, which it bought for USD600 million in 2009. Carillion has had a better period, winning the Anfield redevelopment project earlier in July and holding a total order book of GBP18.5 billion at the time
No, I don't believe the divi is safe. If you're investing for income, look at the HYP Practical Board of The Motley Fool, where you will find much good info on the subject of putting together a portfolio of high income shares.
I am a shareholder here, is the dividend safe? This is a long term investment for me, my Grandfather and father worked for BICC cables and owned shares in them which is obviously now BBY. So it was natural I bought in. I was lucky as I was looking at buying before the profit warning, held out for a week or two and then boom - profit warning and I just couldnt say no to the price at the time. Just hoping we keep some sort of decent dividend, crazy that the economy is doing well yet BBY issues a profit warning :(
Good Tip in Todays Sunday times
Diapponting here now..
It has been a while since I bought in here around 212 and sold at 242 (I never keep my holding very long, and I am punished for this as well as rewarded, but there you are!) I have taken my eyes off this and only in the past two days taken a look again. What I see (and I am not an expert here by any means) is that the management is forced into a 'distraction and retrenchment mode' (as I call it), and in lieu of pursuing a growth strategy, their efforts, time, and concentration is fixed on 'steadying the ship' (another metaphor). To me, it looks like it is going to be bumpy going forward. If I was the chairman, I would bring in new people. The guys who got this company into its present mess is not the same crew you want navigating a purported recovery (stabilization). Unless lady luck intervenes, the outlook, short and medium term at least, look bearish. - Disclosure, I am not invested here, and my strategy is not to invest by operating like an opportunist and speculator, so take everything I say in that context. This does not mean I am wrong, but there is no guarantee I am right, either. I always like to see PI coming out top one way or another.
Still got cover - let's hope that trading results don't prevent the continued dividend.. Think it is a medium hold
it was the bull who wouldn`t but I think he would make you an exception since you know most of the tricks and is! highly cultured !
