I think you've misunderstood my analogy. I'm talking about APEC not fulfilling their end of the bargain. You're bringing theft into it which is completely irrelevant for our set of circumstances. And in any case non-performance of a contractual term is a civil not criminal offence. dear fellow.

I'm not saying TOR is perfect but it's a bit of a tall order to say shareholders can bring proceedings against him. What's happened is PVR have entered into a commercial arrangement with APEC and APEC haven't delivered on their half. It's no different to ordering a pizza, paying for it, and nothing arriving. That doesn't mean you're negligent for choosing that pizza company. It means you have no control on the reasons why the pizza delivery didn't take place. What do you do then? You can't force the pizza to arrive.

People are very quick to judge or blame. I'm not defending TOR but more the blaming culture. Any CEO could have been left in the lurch by this deal. There are a number of lifestyle companies on AIM but non-receipt of expected funds is not how lifestyle companies perpetuate their continuance, it's through fanciful projects that don't go anywhere. I think we all agree that Barryroe as far more than fanciful. There are a million examples of companies jumping into bed with bad commercial partners. It's life. We just have to hope the funds arrive one way or another.

This share price is being absolutely shot to pieces. Company isn't doing much to stem the downward spiral. Frustrating

While the continued delay of funds is not ideal, the SP reaction today for PVR and LOGP is unfortunate for another reason. We are told in the RNS that the vessel is being mobilized and what is essentially the deposit is being paid to ensure that happens. So this gives an assurance that things are going ahead on the activity side - and that money will appear in one form or another. This is a positive the market has ignored. It's understandable given the frustration over funds, but still it's not the announcement a company about to fold would make.

Really good timing with this announcement. Just when the SP was starting to slide a bit on no news, this gets us back up to a decent level, and potentially a better takeoff price for when Equinor news comes. Goes to show how consistent news flow can make a big difference.

I've never been able to understand how the SP of BPC can shift so much on basically the hype of something one day maybe happening.

What I don't understand is why we keep being told the money is coming. If APEC weren't interested why don't they just say so? Because as things stand they're still going to be in breach of contract for not delivering the funds. So what I don't get is why they don't come clean. This is the only thing that makes me think there must be an ounce of truth in the fact the money is on its way.

If this rise is sustained just watch investors pile in again!

Interesting to see after a few days of SP decline. Would be nice to settle nearer the 20p mark, which is OVB's fair value I believe.

logp now up 40%

this may breach 2.5p at close. 7 mins of trading left

Following LOGP's example.

...

Will there be a strong finish here?

Strong finish

The more gold rises, the more Polymetal rises, which is good for OVB and its c.£15m shares in Poly. And that is before taking any of the other value of OVB into account.

in legal drafting 'on' would include all day today. so we have until close...

Strange to see this down, but then again this is AIM we are dealing with and the market is looking particularly red today. Patience tested to the max with Barryroe, let's hope it's worth the wait.

he's changed his tune a bit. This week he's saying it's a 'big if' if we receive the funds. Last week he was saying it's probably that they've got clogged up in the banking system
