Here's the missing bit, sorry Ken. Saw this on Growth Company Investors Site Overall, growth prospects look good given recent publication of the Draft Waste Strategy from DEFRA, which should lead to rising recycling targets requiring Straight-type container solutions. Investors were also treated to an improved dividend of 3.5p (2.4p). We remain fans. James Crux of GROWTH COMPANY INVESTOR

English Wines - Final results 06 April 2006 (17:09:46) English Wines is listed on the Ofex market Code EWG English Wines has today reported an 18% underlying growth in sales to £1.78 million for the year to 31 December 2005. The previous 15 month period saw sales of £1.88 million. The higher underlying turnover was driven by an 11% increase in the average selling price of premium wines, plus greater beer and non-wine sales in the retail outlet at Tenterden. Administration and marketing expenses grew 18% Overall losses, however, were reduced to £123,000 from £966,000. But 2005 numbers are irrelevant... During 2005 English Wines added a further 125 acres of sourcing for grapes and its Winemaker, Owen Elias, won UK Winemaker of the Year. That acreage won't be producing grapes, wine and cashflow until 2008. We expect sales to surpass £5 million by 2008 with post tax profits of £1.5 million. That would equate to earnings of 3p, making today's share price of 15p incredibly cheap. English Wines is capitalised at £6.14 million and remains a great long term buy.

STT. Re: SprattykenStraight - BUY 04/04/2006 Recycling containers company Straight, flagged up here as a buy at 192.5p last September, stormed home with stellar numbers for 2005, and looks poised for further exciting growth. For the year to December, turnover almost doubled to £24.3m on the back of continued organic gains and the January 2005 acquisition of Blackwall, its long-time rival. Pre-tax profits more than doubled – surging 112% to £1.5m – sending headline earnings per share up 68% to 12.6p. Swiftly integrated, old enemies became firm friends, with Blackwall consolidating Straight’s position as the UK’s leading supplier of kerbside recycling containers, home compost containers and water butts. In the core waste and recycling container market major new contracts were won, but repeat business from existing Blackwall and Straight customers was another key feature of 2005. Profits at the traditionally low-margin wheeled bin business span higher, thanks to better buying and selling. General recycling containers for the B2B market rose in both sales volume and profits, and garden product revenues also grew on the back of record deliveries of home compost bins to WRAP (Waste & Resources Action Programme). Overall, growth prospects look good given recent publication of the Draft Waste Strategy from DEFRA, which should lead to rising recycling targets requiring Straight-type container solutions. Investors were also treated to an im

STT. I know that feeling Sprattyken, you made me laugh, that's always good. Nice to see a block of green buys, this is a good stock. Wish I had a bit more cash.

GTL. The Amounts are listed in Green on Digital Look. As you know Sales are seen as red. I use the word ASSUMED and not ARE. However, we are all cheering the same boat and folks can make up there own minds.

GTL. Welcome 5 Day Rise. Volume yesterday nearly 50mil. Today so far 72.5 mil. Recent large volumes are assumed purchases. Mouthwatering!

BES. Suprised at the slow start of buying this morning following yesterdays good news. This is worthy of a move upwards.

GOC. Debbie isn't that the RNS I posted earlier ?

GOC. Noticed the jump in price after each buy, and the spread is quite wide. Needs to fly!

GOC. Hi Debbie, I hope you are well. Thanks for the greeting. This looks a bet on an "off chance". Speak soon

The Company has received a number of approaches from third parties that wish to assist in developing the business, some of which may or may not lead to a change of control. The Directors, in conjunction with its advisers, are carefully considering each of these approaches in terms of achieving a fair operational and Net Asset Value for GO Carriers. Following correspondence with The Panel on Takeovers and Mergers (the "Panel"), the Company has been informed that the Panel does not believe that the City Code on Takeovers and Mergers or the Rules Governing Substantial Acquisitions of Shares applies to the Company owing to the fact that at the current time the central management of the Company is located outside of the UK, Channel Islands and the Isle of Man. Commenting on recent developments Vassilis Vintiadis, Chief Executive of GO Carriers, said: "We are extremely pleased about the recent charters that we have secured. They prove GO Carriers ability to secure strong rates for our vessels. As a result the Company continues to operate profitably and generates significant free cash flow. Furthermore, we believe that factors such as recent improved iron ore demand will help the dry bulk market continue to improve. These approaches endorse our view that the Company is trading at a significant discount to its true value."

GOC 06 April 2006 Global Oceanic Carriers Limited ("GO Carriers" or "the Company") Trading update and tentative approaches The Directors of Global Oceanic Carriers Limited (AIM: GOC), the Greek-based drybulk shipping company, have noticed the recent fall in share price and wishto update the market on current trading. Further to the announcement of 20 March 2006 updating the market on the charters for GO Faith and GO Pride, the Company has secured a short term charter for its vessel GO Public for a duration of 30 to 35 days, at the rate of US$19,250 per day. Furthermore the Company has secured an additional charter for GO Pride, commencing immediately after its current charter for the duration of 35 days at a rate of US$12,000 per day. The Directors believe that these charter rates are excellent in the current market conditions. Go Carriers continues to operate profitably and generate significant operating cash flow, which as a result has seen the debt fall to US$18.5 million, a reduction of nearly US$10 million in seven months. The Company has in excess of US$3million in cash. The Directors believe that based on recent independent vessel valuations the Company is trading at a significant discount to its Net Asset Value. The Company has received a number of approaches from third parties that wish to assist in developing the business, some of which may or may not lead to a change of control. The Directors, in conju
