Read their RNS - it's a vertical multi frack well.

It looks like Pantheon have just got the result that 88E were hoping to get from Icewine#2 - I seem to remember the target was around 100 bopd. I feel that 88E instead of drilling from the existing pad at Franklin's Bluff should of maybe used a fresh pad in a 'hot' zone. Pantheon are talking of producing from this result but 88E will have to start all over again with a fresh drill to catch up with PANR. I feel it was a false economy for 88E to use the old drill pad but nonetheless shows there is still some hope for 88E's huge acreage.

Here's the link. Otherwise you might accuse me of making it up.

eatigo have an App for 7 Asian countries including Hong Kong and Jakarta which is readily available here so I don't see why Big Dish are hiding theirs. If the website is so naff in south-east Asia then why is Big Dish Manilla still live.

I do have the revenue figures for Big Dish Asia up until the end of 2017. They are available on the IPO prospectus. I will not put them on here as they do not make very good reading. Try pages 69 and 80 for 2017 and 94 which gives revenue for 2105, 2016 and 2017.

The revenue figures for Table Pouncer are also on this document. See pages 129 and 132. These read a little better than the revenue figures for Big Dish but not by much.

Please do not accuse me of posting false or inaccurate figures.

These figures are not particularly relevant as they were for the earlier business models - I think both ran a dining card scheme beforehand. However Page 40 seems to say that Big Dish in it's current form started in 2016 and would have been live for all of 2017. Maybe they were just running the beta trial phase for the whole year and weren't too worried about creating revenue though. I still can't see why they had to do another beta phase in the UK as that had already been done big time.

There are now 91 restaurants on Big Dish Manilla but a few months ago there were always over 100 . Of course that brings up the dreadful subject of dropoffs but then no-one will ever be allowed to mention this subject on this board. It will be taboo - by order of beebopalla and monty and others.

According to the IPO Table Pouncer had 260 restaurants signed up at the time but there have never been more than just over 100 for the last few months so one must assume that the rest have dropped off.

Can anyone here find Big Dish Hong Kong or Big Dish Jakarta on either App or website please.

Also is there a Big Dish Manilla App. There is a Big Dish Manilla website on the link below but both Hong Kong and Jakarta are no longer linked to this. At one time Manilla was showing on the Big Dish UK App but that is not there anymore and I don't know if there is one anywhere.

Bristol (Territory 2) seems to be going well with 17 added so far this month. The territory manager is getting on with the job.

It doesn't look like they have a Territory manager for Territory 1 (Bournemouth, etc) yet as Sanj said on a podcast that he had put in the 2 days in Southampton to sign the 7 there so far this month and no more have been added in B'mouth. This is poor really not to have the staff to do the job.

Just looking through some historical data and ASOS actually floated at 20p a share and for the next 2.5 years were below the placing price and went as low as 3.3p. They floated with 61 million shares and have only got 83 million now hence the share price growth. The difference was the issue of options to directors but never one single placing.

However I wouldn't be happy now if Dish was below it's IPO SP for 2.5 years. That would be very frustrating and unnecessary.

I'm quite familiar with ASOS. Shares like that are very rare.

It took 4 or 5 years for the ASOS share price to go from 10p to £1 and another 4 years for the SP to go from £1 to £10 so it was slow going. Fine just buy some and wait for 7 or 8 years but with that approach no-one needs to be on here posting and ramping every day.

The main reason ASOS share price was such a success was because they never ever did a placing. Obviously the business grew as well but most companies will go through such dilution that a 10 bagger will often end up just a double-up or so.

I am as entitled to post here as you or anyone else.

For your information most posters get banned from this website for posting rude personal comments to other posters and not for giving an honest opinion about a company, RNS, or progress. Most of them are the big rampers who can't stand anyone having a contrary view to theirs and unable to actually counter any opposing views because they are stuck on such a myopic vision resort to being personal and rude.

If they sign up restaurants quickly enough then it seems to be very easy to break even in a Territory with a matter of months. However if they go very slowly they will never break even as they won't cover the overheads let alone the cost of signing new restaurants. Then the shareholders will end up paying for everything, including the BOD's inflated salaries. What's new!

Share price is now down 5.72% today.

I don't care what anyone says today's RNS was dreadful and I would expect the SP to be back down to historical lows before too long. And then there will be nothing to look forward to until the end of MAY.

Shameful.

that would still be quite enough to fund all ten regions.

(Sorry my computer keeps posting before I've finished my post. I think I just type very quickly and occasionally hit the wrong key.)

It won't be worth much if anyone does.

Big Dish paid £1 million in shares for Table Pouncer which had up to 110 restaurants on the website/App. I can only find 91 on the Big Dish Asia website and I cannot even find the Big Dish Asia App. I was told on enquiring that we cannot get the Big Dish Asia App in the UK but I'm not sure if that is the truth or not as I tend to think all Apps are available everywhere. I'm not sure about this.

Mind you they did say that selling the Asian business would dramatically reduce the amount of money needed for signing up restaurants in the UK. Unless they start using expensive media companies or do any acquisitions the actual funds needed to sign up the restaurants is very small. Say they had 2 people in 10 regions on £25K a year that is only £500K which is not a huge amount. So even if Big Dish Asia is only worth say £1M

"drax, try giving a counter argument to Art, then you might actually add some value to the discussion."

I quite agree. Everyone picks on everything I post and make rude comments but never add anything positive or in the way of a counter argument.

The only way to describe Big Dish Asia is that it was a big FLOP.

It just makes me wonder what the master plan was if Sanj Naha hadn't turned up. According to his podcast he said he came across Big Dish one day and phoned the directors and told them of his experience and that he was looking for a job and they took him on. What exactly was the plan if he hadn't walked in off the street. Or maybe there just wasn't one.

Considering they had been planning this launch in the UK for more than 18 months before they finally floated it doesn't look like they had made any plans at all. (This was first going to be RTO's with Nyota in November 2016).

Despite what anyone says Big Dish Asia is very second rate and a bit of a disaster. Compared to eatigo, who have over 4400 restaurants in Asian cities, Big Dish have only a handful (91 according to my research)

In Manilla eatigo have 593 restaurants while Big Dish has 91. In Hong Kong eatigo have 872 while Big Dish doesn't appear to have any and In Jakarta eatigo have 270 while Big Dish again doesn't appear to have any.

Even if Big Dish do still function in Hong Kong and Jakarta, which is a claim I was given by the management a while ago though I tend to not believe it as you cannot hide an App and they certainly aren't on the website anymore, then at best there were still only 50 restaurants in each city which would make 191 altogether.

Big Dish Asia was never a success and barely got off the ground so the management have a very poor track record and at the moment they don't show any signs of improving.

All just my opinion.
