Actually I'm at a paper loss too. But it doesn't overly worry me. I bought in on floatation but sold early at a small profit and then have bought back in on the dip with a much bigger quantity. My average is still around 2.50p.

As long as the management have a plan and stick to it then the growth here is just a numbers game. The plan was to have 60 to 70 new restaurants signed up by the end of 2018 in

You're just looking at today's shareprice. This is a start-up business. If the planned expansion in 2019 takes the number of participating restaurants from the current few hundred to the proposed 6000 then the shareprice will rise dramatically.

How have Just Eat got 97,000 participating take-aways - probably by hard work and persistence. Just Eat has a m/cap of £3.8 Billion - Big Dish has a m/cap of less than £6 Million but the prospects here are just as good if not better.

You've obviously bought in here without doing any research on the business and now are at a paper loss. Too bad.

The MM's seem to have a chunk of stock to sell otherwise with nearly all buys they would be marking up the buy price.

I'm getting 2.20p to buy and 2.165p to sell so despite all of today's trades showing as sells they are in fact all buys. The

I'm getting 2.22p to buy and 2.165p to sell. It looks to me like all of today's trades have been buys except possibly the 140,000 trade at 9.07am but due to the spread they are nearly all showing as sells.

There have been a lot of buys in the last couple of days with the MM's happy to let them go cheap but I doubt this will last long.

They still have to migrate the platform in the UK but apart from that I think they are pretty much ready to get this business expanding fast.

This is just going to be a numbers game that will be reflected in the shareprice as the business grows. The more outlets the more revenue and the higher the sharepice.

The planned objective was to have 60 or 70 new restaurants live in Bristol and Bath by the end of the year as well as the participating outlets in Bournemouth. Now looking at the Table Pouncer website they seem to have roughly that number of new restaurants in London, Bristol, Southampton and Brighton so it actually looks like they are on target already. This is great news.

Today, a weekday, there are 47 restaurants offering deals in London and 6 each in Brighton, Southampton and Bristol. Bath and Edinburgh are showing "not yet live" status. Plus there are 57 today in Bournemouth.

100, 1000, 5000 - it's just numbers. After all Just Eat have 97,000 participating take-aways with I think about half the business coming from the UK.

It looks like they are all set up and ready to roll out towards the next target which is to get 6000 participating restaurants in the UK in 2019. This will undoubtedly make Big Dish one of the best performing shares of next year very easily.

As the number of restaurants grows then so will the revenue stream.

This news has obviously been leaked. The shareprice should still have been about 1.60p prior to opening. I expect as lot will have bought in over the last 2 days and now sell on news.

If Big Dish move fast towards the target for 2019 of 6000 participating restaurants in the UK this could be one of the best performing shares of next year very easily.

I've just had another look at the Table Pouncer website today and have noticed that alongside a few new restaurants in Brighton and Southampton there are now as many restaurants in London listed as in Bournemouth. I hadn't realised they were already functioning in London. These include classy establishments such as Marco Pierre White's Steak and Alehouse.

One thing I do not like about the Table Pouncer website - and I know that this is going to be disappearing soon when the business is migrated to the BigDish site - is that it doesn't let you just browse without demanding that you sign up. This is very old fashioned and annoying. Punters just like to browse these days.

The only value here is when they start signing up the potential 6000 restaurants in the UK. At that point the shareprice should start to show a meaningful rise. The sooner they start doing that the better.

Slight pick up today but no doubt it'll soon be back down again.

I stand by what I posted yesterday - this bunch need to get a move on and try to at least get somewhere near their own timescale targets. If not this is going to look like it was vastly overpriced at the time of the IPO.

The beta phase was planned to last one month and now it's going to take nearly 4 months. This is not good enough.

" I take your point but maybe we are being pedantic here and have not taken into account the input that Sanj may have made post Sept UK strategy RNS"

Whatever input Sanj may have made the reality is that as of today there are 4 restaurants live in Bristol and none in Bath. The company target was for 70 restaurants live in Bristol and Bath by the end of the year. They are falling very short and missing their own targets by miles. Hence the drop in the shareprice.

"We also have the potential of Asia investing in DISH LSE when things take off."

That is a shareholders dream. The company have said nothing about this at all. Shareholders are just making it up.

The shareprice has been hit here because the company are already falling badly behind schedule - their own schedule that is - and the market doesn't like that.

The RNS on 17th September - headed "UK Launch UK and Fourth Quarter Strategy" - clearly set out a strategy:

"Launches today with a select number of restaurants in Bath

Targets 70 independent restaurants in Bath and Bristol in the fourth quarter of 2018

Migration of Table Pouncer to BigDish platform

Fourth quarter sets the stage for aggressive rollout across the UK in 2019, targeting up to 6,000 restaurants

A select number of restaurants in Bath were chosen for the beta launch of BigDish in the UK. The beta stage will be for an initial one month period. The goals of this first month are to ensure that the technology and booking process operates seamlessly, to test various marketing channels with a view to understanding the economics to achieve scale, and to gain insights into customer data via the BigDish proprietary business intelligence platform.

At the end of this one month period, BigDish will seek to increase the number of restaurants in Bath and expand to neighbouring Bristol. The goal for the fourth quarter in Bath and Bristol is to grow to 70, predominantly independent, restaurants. The Company will target larger restaurant chains at a latter date. The Company has hired a territory manager who will seek to grow the business in south west England."

Now the latest update in Mid November basically says that none of this has been done. The beat phase is now due to run into January instead of mid October. At present, both BigDish in beta and TablePouncer are operating. The initial focus is to sign up restaurants in Bristol - not Bath. The UK business is expected to be fully rebranded and TablePouncer will be completely absorbed into BigDish by January, at which point the Company plans to end the beta phase. And of course now they are talking about selling their Asian business without even a word about whether it is a success and what sort of revenue they are achieving.

Could be just very poor and unambitious management, which is not a good scenario for shareholders.

Anyway I have bought quite a few on the way down but now realise that this is going to be slow going unless the management buck their ideas up. I shall probably now wait and buy more when the they start signing up restaurants and expanding the business at the speed they need to operate to keep ahead of the market.

Nothing has gone wrong here. It's just early days.

Look at Just Eat with a m/cap of £3,600 Million (and it's been higher than that) and they just have an App that lets punters order takeaways. No discounts as far as I'm aware and the takeaway market in the UK is only about 10% of the value of the restaurant eat in market. This has huge potential. Just needs to get started and start signing up some of the potential 6000 restaurants in the UK.

I'm not sure how many restaurants were signed up to Table Pouncer in Bournemouth. Today there are 58 deals going so taking that as an average if they served 127,000 meals last year in 58 outlets then that's an average of just over 2000 meals per outlet over the year. Multiply that by 6000 restaurants and you get over 12,000,000 meals and at even a modest £1 per head that's a lot of revenue with only relatively small overheads. Give revenue like that a P/E of 20 (and that could be a lot more) then that is a huge m/cap.

This has huge potential - providing the management get a move on and get the business established as quickly as possible.

Getting this established should be a doddle compared to getting independent and notoriously stubborn takeaways owners to sign and pay Just Eat to get them customers they will argue they were going to get anyway.

Sadly only 4 restaurants live today in Bristol and none so far in Bath.

Buys all going to NT. I think this is going to re-rate.

The difference between these prospects and those in places like Namibia and Morocco is that in the South China Seas there are oil discoveries and producing prospects everywhere. This is a proven province. The 30% COS means a lot more when other nearby drills have hit oil already.

Total Mean Oil in-place increased 9% to 884 MMbbl from 814 MMbbl on an un-risked basis

GCA's estimates of Geological Chance of Success of Jade and Topaz prospects is 32% and 30% respectively

The total P10 estimates increased 47% to 1588 MMbbl from 1081 MMbbl on an un-risked basis
