My big play was Yell, I bottom fed it at 11p and made some decent money, however, I got greedy and lost a few quid in the end but made enough to buy a house which was the objective at the start, it was crazy back then, exciting but not for the faint hearted!
The salary he was paying himself, it didnt matter to him if they found any oil or not.
And my worst F up...........Reneuron , boy did I wish I hadnt seen a link recently to where there share price got to & is now.
Sure fire lesson that fundamentals do pay .. eventually. Sadly for me another lesson is that patience can pay !
Yep was in yell too. Afren. Johnston press. Rockhopper. There was some other company in the Falklands too that no longer exists, name escapes me.
Rockhopper !!... made my first ( & probably last ) very profitable day trade on RKH. Went on cricket tour full of it .
Few weeks later and .... you know the rest .
Bet you were in Provexis too ?!
Falklands oil and gas?
I was in Xcite energy (XEL), that turned out to be a disaster but learnt alot from that experience.
Nah was never in them.
Desire petroleum was the Falkland company I couldn’t remember.
Ah, Johnston Press, yes , I was in that, I think it went bust? Speedy Hire was another that was on the brink which I dabbled with. I was in RKH also but not for long, I’m not good with oil companies, try to stay away from them.
XEL .................will have nightmares now .. MD lived in Guildford from memory ??
Remember getting to the point that I was going to knock on his door.
Think JPR got bought out. Could be wrong though.
Yeah, XEL....an utter car crash in the end. But valuable lessons learnt.
Nice to reminisce ..........sort of !
Good night & good luck
Don't remind me
Borders and southern two drills, I can even remember the drilling rig name, leiv eirikson
Falkland oil and gas
New world oil and gas in Belize, side track well
Towers resources off Namibia, most expensive technology going
Kea petroleum second puka well
Disaster after disaster for me
JPR were delisted. Oh the joys! GLA
Borders, their first drill in 2012 was on the field they called Darwin I think
It's all flooding back now, not good memories
@saffrob I’ve been in Reneuron for quite some time. They did a share capital reorganisation back in 2018 where each share became worth x100. Thought I’d mention it as perhaps you don’t know if you’ve not followed for a while - means you might not have to beat yourself up quite so much about missing out...

For me it was Sirius - was all in and lost so much money! Now trying to get it all back again. I will never trust a CEO again - was an idiot!
I’ve been in UJO and made some good profits there despite some shareholder shenanigans. I think you have to go on the fundamentals and try to balance in a risk which is huge with those types of companies. Definitely only worth ‘betting’ small as you’ll more often than not loose it... research, research, research and hold your nerve if the fundamentals stay the same.
Next week a blue week here I think, hopefully David knows to trickle news every week now as it builds into a diagnostics business at last. I’m so happy to be in this as we have a great business here, UK plc doing its bit, innovation at its best guys!
Lost money in XEL, AFREN but into PMO at 18p last month for a couple of grand. BPC is another one that am invested in and worth to watch. It rose 100% in 2 days after signing a rig contract for a drill in Dec next year! They are fully furnished need for the drill.
TVZ...mucked me up big time.....issued an Inta Day RNS....went bust...I bought in on that very morning....lost 6K....about 3 months wages…..could not believe it....Pure scum.....
Lol just to throw my howler into the ring. I was in 88e. Foolish as anything looking back.
Pmo & shi at near enough their bottom have helped me gleam some back..
And SNG is my fingers crossed stock.
Not been in the game too long. But already licking some wounds and learning.
Old finger. That's awful mate. Wishing you much more luck here.
AIM is a bit like the wild west isn't it.
JARVIS...YELL...also kaput......just when you think SP cant go any lower...bang....kaput :-(((
