'I dont normally comment on NED appointments but in this case I can add something. I have known both the company and Craig Howie for more years than I would admit and this is a marriage made in heaven, UJO’s gain is most certainly Shore Capital’s loss.
Craig will add more than the usual NED would do and he is never short of a few bob’s worth and the rest of the board will know they have been in a meeting, good stuff all round.'

Two points,
The ex-dividend date, or ex-div. date, marks the cut off point for shareholders to be credited a pending dividend. To receive the dividend, shareholders must have bought the stock before the ex-dividend date.
If you sell the day before the ex-div. you do not get the dividend.
If you sell ex-div. the day when the share normally drops you get the dividend.
To buy back shares one has to pay the 0.5% stamp duty (except for AIM stocks) plus buy/sell margin plus a trade cost(?). For 1000 Aviva shares this could be approximately 4 to 5pence depending on your 'trade cost'. Shares do not always drop the amount of the dividend plus 5p.
If you intend to keep the share why bother, you are only giving money to the brokers and the UK Government. You might win but you might lose!

Hi all my fellow posters and readers,
I assume that it is possible for a US poster or resident to become a member of this BB?
I have a message for those immature posters to which the following might apply-------
Is it possible for these posters to turn over a new leaf and behave like mature adults; to limit their comments on this board to UJO, the oil industry and other relevant issues? Are you BIG enough to confine your juvenile abuse, implied foul language and innuendo to the dustbin where it belongs?
I am not a prude but it disgusts me to read some of the posts, rudeness and sniping on this board.
It takes a BIG woman or man to ignore such language and abuse: just don't reply. Are you a BIG person? Let us turn over a new leaf and show our American cousins that we are a mature civilised nation and interested in our Company!

Christine,
Jabez is only human and we can all 'job backwards' and curse the fact that we did not sell at the time the shares reached their recent high point, in this case (50p). Have you never owned a share and wished you had sold earlier before they fell? It is a bit hard to gently rub it in on a loyal SH like Jabez.
To quote you: -
'then surely you had the opportunity to sell out for a nice profit when they were at 50p? if you didn't and surely there was a good return at that stage and you made the decision not to take a profit maybe? shares go up and down and looking at virtually every oiler like this, they are massively down so union jack is not on its own.'

If this is so attractive why are not these Royalties being picked up by the local yanks??

The above was posted earlier at 14:00: Some views posted but no one has answered the Question? Or have we 'A special relationship'? CHAT
Christine Taylor's post: -
'Pboo. That looks like a crane, not a drilling rig? Are you sure on you opinions dear?'
Christine T , If it was a jib of a crane (which it is not) it would have to be structurally bigger and more robust in its transverse dimension. It would also not have a flexible pipe issuing from the end of the (JIB).

Well Said GreyPanther. The big question is 'From where is Rathin's Board to get the money?'
Rathlin have shewn neither speed nor imagination in this field!

Hi Box,
There is momentum in Aviva's SP and it is a brave person that would ADVISE you. I have a smaller holding than you and something has generated an impetus in the SP. For my part I am not taking profits yet. Results are not far away and I am waiting for them. Don't take this as ADVICE!

Good 3Q figures, currently 72nd place in FTSE100; yield 4.65% but hopefully due to rise with increase in AUM.

Hi GP,
I would like to believe you are right but in my understanding is that the word 'Gross' in front of any output figure means that it includes water, sediment at wellhead temperature and pressure. Maybe the text of the RNS was drafted quickly?
I have emailed DB to clarify.
