Well my Xmas present was a book from one of my children.
"The City" by Tony Norfield. The City of course is in the larger city of London (deliberate small c, and the real City is the one which does all of the damage).
Long exposed as a tax haven of extraordiary proportions and the epicenter of the Wild Western Europe Financial circuit, I could thorughly recomend Tony's book, as one does get a clear sense of the games played, and how ethics doesnt (never did I suspect) live in the City. Built on the strained webs of empire, with rules and transparency out the door or window (whichever was closest), it does suggest how the UK, with its perpetual indecent trade imbalances, (etc) is counter balanced by the trade of the City!?

It does have some implications for gold, which are interesting, and the more people get educated the more they might appreciate the games. It does include the us$ and the beloved internatioal banking "system" and a lot more ...
None of games are to the long term sustainability of the global financial system, which is by design, unstable (to state the obvious)
So if the weather is not good and the family has given you a few hours off, then I would suggest a read.
best for the GOLDEN New Year
[ we are all getting locked up or out, run out of PCR tests, can't get results back from those tested, state boundaries are going up and down, quarantine periods are going down with every 50% increase in infections? and now sit at 5 days (in some states), and continually having the politicians talk of never ending pandedmic relief funding but otherwise the economy is booming? Strange world, next year will be better???)

As the "Christian" west is having a holiday, the east appears to be buying gold. Good news for Centamin and its shareholders.
Wish you all the best of Health, Love, Happiness and success for the holidays and the new Year.
God Bless you all,

Mr Bond
That is astounding. The rumoured reports of Santa's demise in an air crash does not seem to be robust.
Good news for the grandchildren!! Flights will resume as soon as possible .. (love, Boris)

For your sound advice and all you share with this forum.
Best wishes one and all in 2022!
Any one know the reason there far,far, less flights over Christmas Eve and day.
Think out of the box.
Its simple , Santa needs all the airspace. After all no one wants dead reindeer falling from the sky.,do they.
hi Mr Bond,
Also very fair comments Mr Bond.
Take care!
Tibbs
It takes a long time to repair confidence after the past vandelism at Centamin.
This CEO is gradually moving ,and planning the repairs, he may be getting 2 m a year ,yes ,but to take on the job and responsibility takes character, All I say is give a fair chance and time.
The vandelism was more than painting walls it took them years ,it often takes longer to repair.
Yes at times I am crotchety,I suspect not the only one of LTHs here ,so hardlly surprising I get ****ed off when I read negative not just you but traders eho get themselves unexpectedly trapped here and rant on.
When really they got themslves in the situation. Then thankfully p***s off.
Anyway enough of that, Don have a good break till after New Year.
Dont let your guard down with the virus.
My nephew this morning tested himself possitive, after 3 tests per day when at work, but feels OK.
Had a plumber in yesterday, possitive today.Take care all.
Agreed Robbie!
Hi Cowichan,
Mr Bond has also contributed a great deal to the forum and enlightened some of us about many aspects the mining industry.
I'm sure we all post something at sometime that someone finds annoying, certainly I'm as guilty as anyone else, although that's all part of freedom of opinion and free and open debate amongst friends and other forum members.
I remain in no doubt that the majority of long term members are completely justified in any criticism the past behaviour of the previous management which has left the share price in the bargain bucket shop for yet another festive season!
It's understandable that the Centamin BOD would prefer to move on, they are no doubt very much aware, hopefully embarrassed that they failed to ensure proper responsible and fit for purpose governance of Sukari from their comfy board room seats in Jersey.
How many times in the past did Pardey promise that "lessons had been learned! after yet another Sukari balls up had necessitated an RNS warning that the promised guidance wouldn't be achieved, I've lost count!
But it is apparent now that despite those warning signs and the published articles warning that all was'nt as well as claimed at Sukari the BOD sat on their hands when they should have kicked ar(ses down the road and brought in new competent management,
In many respects long term share holders were treated like mushrooms "kept in the dark" whilst their trust was taken for granted and even betrayed!
I appreciate in many respects this is going over old events, but that said all the more reason to remind share holders that behaving like mushrooms has done them no favours in the past.quite the contrary!
That said I feel confident that Martin Horgan is determined to put things right and appreciates that although you offer constructive criticism at time's, you also promote many of the positive aspect's about Centamin that otherwise some share holders wouldn't be aware of.
Lets hope for some real tangible results rather than just promises in 2022!
Happy Christmas to you and your family!
Tibbs
Cowichan,
Just say it as it is.
Mr Hogan is being paid £2million plus a year tax free and owns 45,000 shares. He`s a big boy and needs to know how shareholders feel.
Happy Christmas and a very happy new year to you Market!
So glad that you popped in this morning!
Hope you manage to get a few tot's during the festive celebrations!
Keep well!
Best Wishes
Tibbs
Good xmas to all and a happy prosperous New Year
Merry Christmas one and all , allies and adversaries alike , and I wish you all a happy and (hopefully ) prosperous new year
Cheers !
Sorry for the typo should read as 2022
I enjoy your posts Cowichan, very informative and it is good to see someone with the knowledge and determination to challenge the status quo. Please keep up the good work in 20222. No need to take MrBonds comemnts too much to heart.
Now they can go buy nigh on a full 1% in the new year before they need to disclose to the market again.
