Hey Mr Ripley, good to hear from you, I was getting a bit concerned!

I took your advice in advance and only look in occasionally. However, it gradually dawned on me that you had gone missing. My immediate reaction was that some of this Board had taken out a contract on you!

Glad you are still around but the Board misses you! Stay well and GLA.

No FireWall atm on this article so fill your boots.

20% of 1.5 tcf gas would be a complete game changer for pretty well anyone!

OBN? Really? Obviously no readers of a certain satirical magazine around when they named it that!

If I remember correctly, 'OBN' meant 'Order of the Brown Nose'!

Unless.....

Many thanks Stokey, I'm sure that you are right. Having skimmed a little again, it does seem to be an update of existing contracts etc. Certain buzz words and subjects seem to have been added/emphasised now. It refers to human rights, vaccinations etc etc at the very beginning and does seem to try to protect contractor's staff by making the contractor aware that they are responsible for them.

Of course, civilian contractors staff have to go to sea during acceptance trials and the US might be intending to recruit civilian crews for resupply vessels (I remember an incident where the US Army (via an embassy) tried to recruit and demob British soldiers to man ammo barges).(Highly dangerous but very well paid:)

FartingDog, please do try to keep up! I was referring to whoever was fully employed writing such a document, nothing to do with recruiting H+W staff.

GLA!

Thanks Stokey. I'm extremely pushed for time and can't read it all but a quick skim looks like it is more about personnel issues, rather than ownership and transfer of designs, plans etc.

I would imagine that similar arrangements already exist as we have built kit for the USA many times and host their units on dozens of bases.

Authorship of such dox would justify someone's employment, even though not speeding up what are supposed to be urgent needs.

Unusually, doesn't seem to be behind a Pay Wall, so get in quick!

Seems to be about 5 new and prospective treatments but no mention of Avacta:-(

It would be good to get the opinions of our experts, rather than the usual big gobs!

I hope that they have fleshed it out by now, that article is about 2 years old.

Another article in that edition appears to be almost 5 years old.

Or will Sugar make us fat!

Just a guess.

No time for better cryptic clues, though......

IMO, GLA

I only read the papers online these days but 'The Telegraph' used to be defined as a 'Broadsheet', not a 'Tabloid'.

And I think that the article you are referrring to was in the 'Times?

Https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2023/07/24/hydrogen-green-blue-not-renewable-energy-fuel-solution/

The linked article in the Telegraph doesn't seem to be behind a paywall and worth a read about the practicalities of making/storing/transporting of hydrogen.

Any experts out there to comment?

"the largest ED market worldwide" (from today's RNS).

Good marketing? Or good ol impotence?

Given the amount of grief ABLE UK took from the crusties over ship breaking and asbestos in Hartlepool, hard to see anyone wanting the aggro over nuclear waste.

It will be interesting to see if ABLE would be willing to put their heads over the parapet to get the work but the US Navy were a bit upset about the last fiasco. They might have reservations about their nuclear 'secrets' too.

Would we meet the listing criteria for Nasdaq at this time? They seem pretty keen on earnings etc and I don't think we are renowned for those atm. Maybe after we hear how our new - and more commercial - companies are doing.

They can soon kick you off their index if you don't keep up at the back, too. That might be embarrassing:- (

Lord Bamford says there is a shortage of Hydrogen production in the UK. PHE seem to be contributing to it by still dithering.

"A 0.5 l bottle can propel a vehicle 100m"- or whatever - but never does! Very sad but does seem to fit with the current state of affairs in the UK.

Someone get a grip please. GLA

When it all comes true for patients and shareholders, our BoD will fully deserve their rewards and accolades, ordinary shareholders or not. And many of us will have benefitted by having been sitting on the shoulders of giants and listening to some very clever people.

Many thanks in anticipation. GLA
