Totally agree with Caitlin - to those of us who sit back and take the dividends and live a relaxed life, the only thing that matters is the quarterly yield based on our buying price. 2% per quarter is the aim, 2.5% is the dream.
But of course the traders will never understand that.

Mine also been added. Will buy a few more if sellers bring the price down, tried at 273p yesterday but never made it. Dividend announcement any day, hopefully send the price north.

Strange buy at 12:46 ??

I got my Gore Street/PB shares same day with Halifax/I-web, although they do quote three days. Makes no difference of course as we are all long term holders.

The question is, which idiots keep voting to let companies ignore shareholders in placings ?

well maybe a good opportunity to add more, especially for those who don't like Primary Bid. Will have to keep watch tomorrow.

The rise had to start soon as we march on to the years big dividend. Glad I made an impulsive top up a week ago. CYN also had a similar rise today.

The dividend just arrived is the 12 noon special from Leamington Spa, Bromsgrove, Birmingham, Wolverhampton, Crewe, Coventry and Dudley. Heading to Pontypool, Ilfracombe, Swanage. Southampton and Kent.
Happy Days fellow investors.

Looks like a long deep read required in the annual report if anyone's brave enough .....

Any broker who refused to deal with the script would certainly be my ex-broker very quickly, whatever the cost. I was actually surprised that my broker handled the DUKE enforced script dividends without any problem. That helped me build a very large holding because I kept topping up after each script. A lot of people seem to for some inexplicable reason. Certainly helped bring my average down dramatically.
I prefer to reinvest cash dividends every few weeks into whatever holding I feel need topping up, but if it helps the company, that's fine.

Sounds like he's bragging again to me. Nothing learned !
Hey I'm joking - we are all clowns when it comes trading. Except one guy on another board who uses a clowns name and takes himself seriously.

Sorry, message is filtered, but good to know ur ok and up early for a long day of cynicism.

It was sarcasm as far as our uninvested long term cynic is concerned (sorry can't see/not interested in what he says).
But I do actually mean it as far as the board are concerned. I genuinely feel they have investors best interests at heart and they have reduced their own bonuses. It is something I look for in companies I invest in, and there aren't many about. RLE, Jarvis, AEWU, VSL. Much rather be in these companies that have kept dividends coming during the darkest times, as opposed to those that cancel dividends they have already announced, like LAND and BLND.
As far as I am concerned, people who constantly comment on companies they aren't invested in, and have no interest in ever investing in, should be dragged through the courts and be answerable for their comments. Mr. Bassi, are you listening ?

As expected, a large dividend decrease. Gives me exactly 1 percent per quarter yield on my holding. Will have to see where the share price now goes. Get out on a rise, or add on any big fall. Four percent divi per year would be a drag on my portfolio. Sad.

A very well deserved award to Mr. Bassi and Daly for their services to shareholders. Well done lads.

Please don't worry about making me happy CSD, like you say, we all do our own thing. I have experimented with trading quarterly divi payers, and the result is always the same - you can double your dividends, but always end up losing almost the exact same amount as you make. ie - make £5000 dividends in a quarter, and lose £5000 trading, when you could have been happy with £2500 dividends.
One only has to glance at these boards to see the increase in the number of "oil men" and "gold prospectors" playing the quarterlies. Trouble is, they are never satisfied enough to play by themselves, they have to try and encourage the gullible and brag about what they do - mostly by talking down companies they aren't invested in, so they can get back in cheap.
But yes, I do dabble a bit - recently took massive profits on Jarvis, BR Energy, and BR World Metals - but I know that I will never attain the yields I was on.

New shares straight into my trading account today. Excellent service from both Primary Bid and my broker. Onwards and upwards until the next fund-raise.

Who was it that recently posted "Blah Blah Blah" on this board ?
It keeps repeating in my head every time I look at what is being posted, like some annoying ear worm.
Think I'll have a top up and then go away till July.

Sad day when traders started playing quarterly divi shares. Be a long time before you get back in at the price you were. Warehouse is really expensive ATM.

No wish to correct your superior knowledge eccles04, but personally I would prefer a wealthy company paying great dividends for years to come, with a reserve to top up any poor quarters. If they pay us 26p, do you not think the share price would fall by 26p. ?
I only invest for dividends, I adore dividends, I live for dividends, but I want sustainable dividends.
