In My early days after leaving school, I took a job as an apprentice copper smith at a little old fashioned engineering works. I made parts for rare aircraft, anything from Concorde to Sopwith camels. Basically anything that was to small a run number for the British Aerospace (formerly Hawker Sidley) factory in Ham to bother to tool up for.
My old Forman and Charge hand were such brilliantly skilled men, but I found it all a bit boring. ....
Good for you Zoro. Good for you. It's easy to forget real people exist on these boards. I am planning on moving to North Carolina in the near future. I like American girls and partying and 6 litre petrol trucks. I worked hard when i was younger, its time to live a little. Poverty, people don't know what being poor is
Happy moving Zoro.
My only worry is Steptoe becomes Priminister.
Are you feeling alright Zoro ???. It's not like you to be positive.
Happy moving. I hear Siberia is nice. Ha ha.

Thats interesting Gell.
My Uncle always wanted a Spit.
He was a 747 Skipper & in his spare time flew all the museum aircraft out of Toronto - he owns a Tigermoth and still flies it, he’s 89. He couldn’t get his license recently cos of some fitness requirement, so he’s joined the ‘unlicensed pilots association’ - he’s a real character!
Following on from Andinio’s wise post about ‘forward planning’ & sticking to investment strategies my thoughts are as follows.
1. Substantive partnerships are in place.
2. Software developed, tested and being rolled out.
3. Industry specialists being recruited to manage Engage.
4. Significant uplift in Educate coinciding with New School year.
5. Global hardware manufacturer partnership announcement imminent.
The above 5 points indicate that DEV is moving rapidly towards significant revenue growth due to the scalability of their offerings.
I particularly like the ‘spin off’ huge potential of the gamification platform for Launchpad and the training of employees- (think intercontinental) this in itself has very significant revenue potential, and CJ pointed out in the podcast that DEV charged ‘per individual user’ as the employee churn rate cost large corporations a great deal.
Educate is going to offer some substantial momentum in the near term, whilst Engage will, imo, surprise us all with the potential variety of strong revenue streams.
So, I’m holding the lot, and will review in March 2020.
Andino I only just read your well written comment. You might of heard of Fairey Aviation. My mums family were engineers. My Grandad collected and restored Lagonda's. Bearing in mind you and Gell understand real engineering i thought you might appreciate the Lagonda history.

Gell. Interesting. I was bought up on Bosington Estate whom was owned by Fairey Aviation, who developed Fairey Swordfish. John Fairey would do loop the loop in his Spitfire, if he saw my mum and me.
Interesting my father was a denior ground engineer and used to strip down and service the Metlin engine
During the war they say he was the best not one aircraft had engine failed ever during his service he became a spitfire pilot later his sister my aunt was guy Gibson personal secretary we still have all the sorties in a shorthand diary that's every mission and meeting
You're welcome.
Let me share a thought.
Today i was asked about my selling/holding strategy for DEV.
1. Chris made a comment today. He said Dev would be cash natural by October.
He has said same twice before within last three weeks. So, today makes it a third time. He has nailed his CEO balls to the commercial mast.
2. Last month he said Dev were in ADVANCED talks with a global hardware partner regarding EDUCATE.
Today he said Dev were in FINAL talks with a hardware partner regarding EDUCATE.
We all have our own investment strategies. For Dev mine is simple. I expect Dev to achieve 1 and 2 no later than H2 trading report (which is generous as i believe the hardware news will - and should - come much earlier). If he fails on either one of those pledges, i will sell. I happen to think he will succeed in both - and with ease.
It's for these reasons i have been able to hold (avg down when i felt appropriate) - ignoring the ramp and de-ramp comments. It's important to have your own reasons for holding and sticking to them. It helps to filter out the noise and emotion. Ignore the FOMO and stick to what you know and understand. Manage the risk.
It's worked for me over the years.
I'm really pleased that Dev closed above 4p
It's not the much needed close above 4.2p, but it's very significant all the same. Anyone following this Co will understand.
I'm away to the Barn for a few days rebuilding a WW2 Spitfire engine. No phone. No internet. Just the purr of combustion.
Ideally, when i return next week we will see more progress. Regardless, progress will come.
Monumental week. GLA.
Other than Zoro. All the crew on here are sound.
Thanks for message reply earlier Andinio. Stocktrak and Moz are so busy buying that they cant see anyone else for share certificates. Ha ha.
Zorro is probably sitting on a toilet seat chuntering to himself about how closing above 4p isn't good enough :)
Where is Zoro by the way ??? Suddenly gone very quiet.
Is today the day when the share price closes at 4p or above?
Tomorrow?
Before weekend?
Zorro will probably collapse when it eventually closes above 5p :)
