If I am really honest I am a bit on the up, not a lot but still up and there has been the entertainment value! But I fully agree that it has become monumentally boring. Still up the UKOGs and I feel a tad better now DL is sort of out of it. You never know with the likes of him GLA LTH I am happy with my run here

I know, I just have to live with it, fortunately it's the other end of the house so not much day to day bother. These things will pass. I just hate opening my purse!

No it isn't, it is bordering on illegal. Stuff your City culture, a bunch of wide boys and it is not even funny anymore. There are precedents for banning short selling so you can look out. Shorting is tantamount to gloating, it certainly ain't cricket

It has been blustery in Sussex too. I am longing for some warm days. Brexit apart, had a shower room installed and an extra utility 20 grand and rising commenced work 7 Jan. not finished. I feel like I have been got at by a baseball bat. UKOG is the least of my problems x Send chocolate!

gell, you win some, you lose some. I am genuinely sorry to hear about your FLYBE loss hopefully you will make it up elsewhere. I didn't see the Stobart reduction in divi coming. I took my eye of the ball and was shafted. Silly, yes. Have to take it on the chin. I am sorry love but it is the name of the game

Well Lynthip if oil reaches 74 again it will be one helluva bash. We hung in for the pound party, even thought a penny party would be fun. How is it going down there in the West Country?

I have just been scrolling through and noticed some old names coming up some of whom have a lot invested here and are bored to tears. Me too but there were some opportunities, albeit 2 years ago, to make a few bob on UKOG. And if you followed the not more than 10% of your PF rule then your PF should have propped UKOG up. Not the best scenario I agree but it could be worse. If there is enough oil down there SS will get it out. He doesn't strike me as being a scoundrel we just have to wait a bit longer and trust in our instincts. GLA LTH

Thanks johnson

Hard to say. There has been a lot going on with PSN. Perhaps some old timers have taken the divi and run today. Was in this years ago but fairly newly back myself. I wonder how long it usually takes to recover following ex divi day. Anyway good luck

I meant being open regarding payment of future dividends. Anyway the China thing was years ago, resolved two years ago. Since then a new CEO and hopefully some changes for the better.

RNS looks very positive

I think even Ivanka struggled to keep her face straight.

At least they (GSK) are honest

Renewables too!

Nice turnaround. Long may it last

GSK recognises the importance of dividends to shareholders and aims to distribute regular dividend payments that will be determined primarily with reference to the free cash flow generated by the business after funding the investment necessary to support the Group's future growth.
The Board intends to maintain the dividend for 2019 at the current level of 80p per share, subject to any material change in the external environment or performance expectations. Over time, as free cash flow strengthens, it intends to build free cash flow cover of the annual dividend to a target range of 1.25-1.50x, before returning the dividend to growth.

They talk a lot about restructuring, and that has a cost

Keiran Morzani I guess

No

They are hereditary titles so they don't have seats in the Lords!

to stop shorting on AIM

More than satisfactory!
