As ever

"".....and l mean gross after expenses..."" Bless him. He's starting out. The rest of the world always means gross is before expenses and net is after expenses. Still, what do they know? That makes the third aspiring Warren Buffett we hare lucky to have harassing this page.

""Lots of 'sells' then a Holdings RNS showing that they were sold to a buyer ;-)"" Yes, Wednesday wasn't it? Have a great holiday weekend everybody. So much in the world to be grateful for, especially at this time of year. ATB.

""Am I not correct in thinking that vultures might normally be said to 'circle'?"" Exactly. It is a common enough phrase and I was surprised by the words Boyzee used. He doubtless has his own agenda, as indeed, we all have.

Your landing craft comparison has an air of considered accuracy about it. It implies no emotional side to your comment, just that a situation is unfolding. ""...Boyzee could be on the right track..."" It's important to express oneself correctly. It can show a person has considered their thoughts and reduced the emotive impact in the pursuit of truth. An inaccurate analogy is often a reflection of a desire to force your own view on to others, usually for your own benefit and often not for the first time. I personally don't think vultures can hover, although anything is (supposed to be) possible.

Very good news, thanks for posting. Onward and upward from now on.

""...since when did a street become a road?."" Probably when the bluddy thing started talking. You may have read the comment, you certainly didn't understand it.

""wall street says..."" Now they have a road in New York that talks.

of the entire company sold today, according to figures. # Trades 42 Vol. Sold 469,835 Vol. Bought 7,717PE

That isn't the point, idiot. The point is that HE is free to choose, not YOU. Good God!

""Desperation starting to really stink as moni continues to sink"" I wish I was desperate. You NEED to be right, and, really...... who cares?

Good find, so Beachpoint have added even since then. Let's hope they are all fierce rivals!

http://beachpoint.capital/contact/ From the "Strategies" page, hopefully WTG fits the "restructuring" category here! Distressed, Securitized Credit and Special Situations Wide range of investments including direct loans, securitized products, credit dislocations and less liquid instruments Focused strategy for investing in companies that are in stress or distress, bankruptcy or restructuring

Mea Culpa... they are the trolls (foll-de-roll) of the Moni page! Must lay off the red wine on a Saturday in future.

Expect an enormous dose of woe as VH and PE put you (us?) straight! Standby for the informed onslaught of the experts... here it comes.....

A Mother has two jobs. 1) Look after the children 2) Do everything else. (Again, let's be honest, they ain't all good at it)

"Apparently Harriet Green got the job at Thomas cook on the strength of a cold call to the chairman." Just what we want. Somebody who gets out there and mixes it, for good or bad. Failure is not through not succeeding, failure is though failing to try.

""AEM if you think you are in control at home, you maybe mistaken......"" But you see, I have "The Cure"... I am single! ;-)

""I think you will have to apply.... Lol"" I'm honest enough to admit, you don't want me... I don't want me. She has talent. She can run them all while cutting sandwiches for the children's school dinners and telling her husband what to say at the next board meeting. When he gets home she's organised the house, I bet!

""Not the best corporate governance to have the Chief Exec setting strategy when the notice period is ticking away."" I agree, I have already posted that this is a good opportunity for an asset stripper and with IM's contact in the IT world he is well placed to do another company, perhaps one he has connections with already, quite a "favour". I really do think this needs challenging quite soon. It would also be good to find out quite what the BoD consider to be a fair share price to, "return value to investors" The price has been low now for so long, and so little has been done about it that I can't help thinking it is all part of plan to get us used to these low numbers. However after a 1-10 consolidation the price had risen to 340ish. (34 p in old money) Since then there has only been steady decline on a programme of sustained "unfortunate" events. I accept fully that a good job was done initially bt the BoD but they can only trade on that for so long. They are being paid good money even now... so they need to continue to EARN it rather than just get PAID it. """I don't understand why they don't serve notice on him and have the lame duck leave now rather than let him work the rest of the year"" Again, I agree, but he would need replacement by somebody good, Harriet Green? I've always liked her and I'll tell you what, I don't think SHE would have been so "quietly doing the job" for so long. She was brilliant at Thomas Cook. Of course, she have better things to do, you could understand it, couldn't you? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harriet_Green
