Skippy., what about this from a couple of months ago.
your post
"To get a comment from the company?
Is it time to form a shareholders association? That would give us small holders more clout."
two months ago, grizzling you couldn't get a comment. now, miraculously you expect us to believe youve had a reply twice in a week. JUST ONE SMALL POST FROM YOUR CHEQUERED PAST.
the film I recommend you is on Disney.
PINNOCHIO.
Now I really have had enough, parting is such sweet sorrow
Thanks for the tip copperpot,
for you, I would recommend one on another channel.
BILLY LIAR
Nal. Explain my chequered past.
Don't let the door hit your backside on the way out NAL, and make sure you lock it and throw away the key.
you're a nice person but tut tut tut you are very needy.
ONWARDS & UPWARDS
NAL, maybe start off with Dumbo!
Lol … “...I think it's time I left and spent more time watching the Disney channel.
It's more believable ”... said Don Quixote and took ….clappity clap.... his Sologanate for another fight there is... lol...
Your all basing a lot on an anonymous poster, with a bit of a chequered past for the truth actually having spoken to Bob, ( as we affectionately call him).
I think it's time I left and spent more time watching the Disney channel.
It's more believable
Fair enough Highflyigman.
Add - I was expressing relatively to be fair. The general point is fair I think.
Bozi, there's a difference between something being risky and it being 'perilous', and shippy did not suggest Sangha had said it was perilous.
Fair points Bozi, however I'm relaxed about it for now as we're only just post elections and in what I'll term 'bid territory'. Prior to this there would have been lots of interest but as soon as the elections were announced, that for me put a stop on things in terms of any potential bid for ENSA or the whole lot. If we get to Feb next year and no substantive offer has materialised then I think we really are backed into a corner and I will start to fear for my investment. So in summary Bozi, I'd add a 'for now' to truly reflect my feelings towards Solg.
Highflyigman, just to pick up on your earlier post - what makes you so relaxed about SOLG?
I think the analysts may be missing a trick here.
Alpala is often lauded as the best discovery in a decade. Yes, a decade. Hardly 50 years or even a century.
My concern is that the majors look elsewhere at the lower hanging fruit. We saw an indication of this with BHP and Oz Minerals. We've had to put up with plenty of diatribe from certain posters over the year claiming that SOLG was "in their crosshairs."
My suspicion, in light of the fact that SOLG are trying to rework the PFS assumptions into a more optimal mine plan, is that we'll continue to be overlooked. We know that Ecuador has been trying to edge towards being a state happy to rely on the revenues mining will bring, but it feels like a house of cards where one bad move can bring down the whole shabang.
I believe our position is a bit more perilous so it was interesting to hear Bob flag this to Shippy. Yes, the big boys stakes exploration ground but they simply had to in order to claim a slice of a free pie. In reality they'll be operating a small office with half a dozen geologists and a couple of pickups. Hardly going to be costing them the earth should the position change.
Whilst SOLG continues to obfuscate and dither I'm afraid I can't relax. I'm sick of people saying what they need to in order to get the top positions and it's about time someone delivered for SolGold.
Needalife the very nice poster who tries far too hard to get noticed to which everyone smiles as if they are a mischievous child
ONWARDS AND UPWARDS
Aquinaga, mathers mate. impressing copperpot, on how he met Mather, not once but twice.
copperpot not to be out done replied. he has a source he met in a cafe. who gave him inside information.
aquinaga to copperpot
"Copperpot on the two occasions I have met him I would say gruff rather than grumpy."
copperpot to aquinaga. that's nothing. ive got a source with inside information. beat that aquinaga.
to wich highflyman responded. ive got a third of a million invested in solg. beat that the two of you
Aquinaga and highflyman. AkA, Walter and Mitty, the dream team
your input is invaluable.
378k sterling to be precise NAL, my average is circa 19p. Don't choke on your cornflakes luv, it's not by biggest investment and I'm relaxed about it. C
Only have one sad one currently on filter so have to presume it’s them.
Well I’m off out enjoy the weekend the normal folk on here. Our time will come. Just hope for some news of significants before the AGM
Aquinaga.
you really must remember your past posts. remember.
"I have saved myself from the tripe on here and only see green boxes.
Funny how only threads with needless-tripe get removed. I now get disappearing green boxes."
I expect like copper pot your filter stops working when I post. or your telling fibs about the filter.
problem is mate, ive shown you to be a stranger to the truth on to many occasions now.
your credibility is pretty much on a par with the other fantasists.
Of course, highflyman. of course youve got 300000 odd pounds sterling, tied up in solg. especially when you joined the board a couple of years ago asking for advice, as you was new to this game. 300000 invested and not sure wether your Arthur or Martha, with the company. off course you are.
run a company
major infester in shares
on this board most days of the week.
where do you find the time.
Walter
NAL, the efforts you go to do make me laugh.
Yes, my total holding is over 2 mil shares, more in the wider family.
Family member used to be in 3 para, 1 para then served in SAS. I now run a company that supplies to government in the security sphere so lots of ex militarily contacts, a few of which are ex special forces or signals especially as we do a lot of work close to Herefordshire.
The contact you doubt will likely gleen nothing new and even if he does may not divulge as much to me, but hey ho, I will try my best to get as much out of his chat as I can. But he will definitely be talking to Scot as he's also got skin in the game here, and multiples more than me.
If you think I'm a Walter Mitty type then I really couldn't give one, consider maybe we just mix in different circles. Sounds like you are one of those people who have a chip on their shoulder about people having success - met a few of your type before.
Have a fab day NAL. Wierdo
Must be the weekend.
Schools out and the tw.t is bored!
Need a life, brain cell, bra, wife in need of something!
Adikt, never doubted it mate.
to be honest all this treasury stuff goes over my head. I just tend to go with a share and basically hope for the best.
I have never seen the need for all that technical malarky. I either make money or lose money. I just research the basics.
I also try to be honest with myself and others. ive no need to impress with my superior knowledge, I know I havnt got it.
also adikt I have never thought you make things up,
I dont think you can see the wood for the trees, but that's another matter
Nal, sorry to disappoint, but the shares are still in Treasury, as the next MD&A will confirm.
Highflyman. Ref your earlier claim regarding you being the latest to have a contact.
Just thought I would remind posters of one or two of your earlier claims I've questioned in the past.
First this blockbuster from late last year.
"Well, I think there will be some kind of corporate action q1 or 2 next year, that's why I've added another 500k shares since the cgp merger news. Just cast my AGM votes for mine and the wifes 1.3 mil shares in favour of all resolutions. Cannot help but think there is another surprise before the AGM, but we shall see.
This post was a week before your claim to hold x million shares.
I know, and have friends in the special forces.
And at a quick reckoning I estimate you've told ud you've bought another 2 million shares this year.
Those two added plus earlier purchases you've told us, I estimate you now hold about 7 million solg shares.
Have a solg contact
Have friends in the sas.
I rest my case
Highflyman, PEASE!!!!! Not another one with a contact. This really is getting silly.
We've got more contacts than actually work for solg. Some of us must have the same contact.
On another note, not sure if your aware Bbg but Quantas have started a 16 hour non stop flight Perth to Rome.
Could be handy for you computing between your italian and aus homes. Just a thought
Yes I think Monday there’s a webcast from there becoming available
Hope your friend gets a bit out of Scott HFM, I can’t believe we’re sat in September and all he’s achieved is laying a few people off and the exploitation deal sheet.
