Conferences, exhibitions, summits.

Self fulfilling, job creating excuses for pretending something is happening.

Maybe we’ve got to play the game, or at least be seen to.

Nothing trumps real business progress though.

Got it in hand. My home cure with brown sugar and chocolate and orange stout.

Home made 5 grain sourdough toast, scrambled eggs from neighbour’s happy chucks, last years preserved preserved toms from greenhouse.

Millionaires don’t have it better and it cost eff all!

We’ve had a nice little run up from 10 to 15 pence.

It was interesting that our new best friend Freethinker turned up for 24 hours or so, just before this happened aren fast forwarded through the entire stroll play book before disappearing again.

In person!

Tell us more ….

Porters, contrary to accusations, I’ll think you find the so called crew are fully aware of the risks and issues, which have rapidly been pointed out to, and taken on board by Nick.

Thanks Phoebus.

It gets very silly if you plug a few TCF into that calc.

His next target is 22p.

He may be right, but still doesn’t mean That TA isn’t boohollocks!

I love your optimism MEM, and should a party ever come about, Inwill come up with something very interesting, but like. GRH says, let’s not hex this yet, and certainly not demonstrate any triumphalism which might upset our Moroccan friends.

My problem is that ideally I need to sell this tax year to crystallise out some cgt allowance, but by back next ty.

If I bridge it’s only overnight, but no doubt Sod’s law will apply!

Timely thoughts.

If I do it I will be providing a “bridging loan” into my ISA to minimise time delays!

Keith, the wording led me to believe that that gas had actually been extracted. However it was just a but odd the have the caveat of “at 1980s prices”. Sloppy journalism?

Shine on! We did loads of work for ntl: They went bust as well, but we did get paid that time.

Mick, we may well have overlapped.

We started with Periphonics, which N paid a fortune, for without even understanding what it was!

Thanks LN. I just fear, the “this is great, but can’t we get someone bigger to do it” effect.

I used to bid against Nortel networks, who nearly always beat us, but then subcontracted the work to us anyway, and added a huge margin. They ended up as one of the biggest bankruptcies ever.

Ther is no end to the idiocy of technically Ill informed “procurement professionals “

Looks very exciting though, and I wonder if Ireland might be first out of the trap?

Thanks Wacky. That slipped out under the radar.

I wonder what protection we have over someone bigger hijacking the concept, now it’s out there. I’ve been in tender situations, and there’s no end of dirty tricks played.

Damn autocorrect.

Sefty- slight was completely unintended. You’ll think I’m Nigel and our new best friend’s mate!

Softy

“That requires very accurate communication”

You are bang on with that. I have personal experience of the frustration pitching the sale of a hugely profitable business, with enormous potential to the City, simply because it did not meet various anonymous box-tickers revenue criteria. Hopefully our peeps are better connected than me!

So our new best friend ran through the entire playbook of FUD, from concerned investor, through agent provocoteur, chucking out insults, to (imagined) victim of bullying, all within the course of a day. This despite the fact he was received politely with an open mind.

This morning our Char colleague seeks clarification on potentially legitimate concerns, and triggers a really helpful response from BRV, adding to everyone’s understanding.

Nice to have you here, and thanks Billy.

PS Obviously if a NEW risk emerges we would all like to hear about it.
