That's a fair point Ken. If it happens , it will be on top of earlier sales/scrappage. So our fleet is going to be a lot smaller when things pick up. Therefore less turnover and less profit set against much larger number of shares in issue so cannot see SP climbing to the heights some on here would like any time soon.

Although I wasn't keen on previous poster Vinegere, I couldn't fault his logic on piling into JLP to make up losses. I bought over a few trades, a total of 300k to match my BMR shareholding. Bumpy ride initially and was losing money but averaged down to 2.6p in the last big dip. Sold one third at under 6p but now over £20k up and not far from covering my BMR losses and outlay on JLP.
I really feel this still has legs with projects, earnings and profit growing exponentially (IMHO).
I don't for one minute think Colin has BMR shareholders' interests at heart and like you I feel there is an appalling conflict of interests for us.
Nonetheless he is doing a great job at JLP and Galileo ( GLR) and I have also recently taken a modest 250k share stake in GLR on which I have more than doubled my money. Hoping this will be a 10 bagger.
Not ramping nor recommending. Just my experience out of the mess that is BMR.
My300k certificate is framed on the wall in my study . Hoping one day I can replace with a photocopy and add to my ISA. LOL. GOOD LUCK.

Did you hedge your bets into jlp?

Klue. I'm a great believer in karma. I hope he gets alopecia and loses that stupid barnet

Ambam. I've regretted for a while now, selling two third of my shares and then watching them carry on rising. Have been waiting for them to go sub 100p for a little while and managed a top up at the close.

Mathsprof. As seasoned cruisers, we bought a few of these earlier in the year when they dropped to around £6, then sold them a few days later for £9. Bad move in hindsight but we were happy at the time..
Since then the cruise lockdown has continued for far longer than we had imagined it woould and the company has taken on a lot more debt and heavily diluted existing shareholders whilst having no income and many additional costs.
We are now squinting at the pin prick of light at the end of the tunnel hopefully but I think it will be many months yet before anything like normality returns to cruiseworld, although we have booked a Princess cruise with friends starting end of May, with the option to defer if problems still abound.
i year ago the SP was well north of £30 per share and climbing, and cruising was well and truly enjoying its heyday period. Since then the cruise industry has been decimated and the SP you are suggesting was after a sustained drop but before UK lockdown, following which SP plummeted. I suspect, like many shares following a crash, Carnival shares have had their bounce and whilst the vaccine rollout will certainly help the SP moving forward, I feel it will be at least a couple of years before cruising has recovered its finances sufficiently to justify £23+ per share. I certainly would not rule out more debt funding or share dilution first.
Whilst I would never come onto a board wishing the SP to drop, I would be tempted to re-enter if it did drop below £11 and today's drop without news suggests I may get there. Goodluck all.

Charlie. I seem to recall the tweet about Borrelli merely said he was stepping down as a director. I'm assuming he's still got millions of share options so perhaps he wants to cling on rather than lose them if he leaves

Thanks Jammer . Reminds me of the Millenium Dome which like BMR was incredibly badly managed by the management and then given away to an American corporation for a small % of future profits.
Took years to come to fruition and now most of the profits seem to be squirreled away to the parent company while taxpayers who footed the bill get sweet FA.
Thankfully I have almost covered my losses on BMR with profits on JLP but feel sorry for those who didn't. It's gonna be a long wait. JLP will just spin out the relevant production and up the costs. IMHO

Wow. Thanks Jammer. Seems Colin is very much in the same vein as the grand tu.rd Borrelli when it comes to keeping loyal shareholders informed. I guess he's done the minimum required though.
Are you posting on JLP?

Whilst we're on the subject, does anyone have any thoughts on GHSPs with bore holes in a domestic setting?
Can't bear the thought of covering my south facing roof with huge, ugly solar panels albeit that they seem to be cheaper, but someone earlier alluded to the lack of green in their manufacture.

Re AIM.
Forgot to mention my holding in Beowulf Mining. (aim ticker BEM)?
Sitting on the largest untapped quality iron ore deposit in Europe (Sweden). Been waiting for a mining permit for 7 years but badly handled by the government who were propped up by the Green party. Parliamentary review recently, heavily criticised government and looking like will get the go ahead soon. Fully financed following a recent rights issue and sp holding up well above rights price.
Bit of a binary bet but will definitely multibag if decision positive and they also are bringing on other projects in Finland and Kosovo.

re "Are any of you guys / gals into AIM shares"
Lost a small fortune on BMR, got it all back and more to come on JLP, SUN is tucked away in bottom drawer for next year, 150% up so far on GLR in few months and expecting will be a 10 bagger.
Looked at GGP when sub 2p but avoided it as Alex Borrelli (BMR) is chairman. Big mistake in hindsight.

Better. 93p? You serious? We got nowhere near that before covid and now post covid, the economy is going to be in care and maintenance for some time.
Tickles me that we were told earlier this year that lloy sp was suppressed because of a possible no deal and now we have one, the sp has retreated slightly.

Happy new year all. It's fair to say none of us, remain or leave got everything we wanted.
But it's done and dusted now and we all need to do our best to make a success of it.

" I hope we are approaching the finishing line, because my wife wonders why each morning at 7 am I am in front of the computer. I could say RNS but she wouldnt understand!
Happy New Year to everybody"
She probably knows my wife then!!

Actis. You forgot Buster. Happy new year

Wouldn't last long on my pate. Not enough to cling to

Lol.

Sparrow. Not sure what to believe with you.
You clearly stated in that earlier repost that nothing else mattered but 7p+ and if still in 3 to 4p range at year end, you would be out. . Yet here you are admitting that you sold one third of your holding for 6p in November.

Sumo. Yeah it's all going great right now and in hindsight I wish I hadn't offloaded a third of mine at 5.6p despite doubling my buying cost. But never forget this is Africa and as an example, what would happen if the Zambian government cancelled the kabwe licence? They have form on this. Yes we have a good relationship with the government but the Chinese have deeper pockets. I think most LTHs are well in profit and long may it continue but there is definite risk to being overweight in Africa. Pardon the pun.
