The latest Investing Matters Podcast episode featuring Jeremy Skillington, CEO of Poolbeg Pharma has just been released. Listen here.
Hilux is a great farm vehicle, but back in Cornwall we have a name for people who mocked others, especially if it was for them not speaking proper like, that would be the word that sounds similar to cants.
Also the persons whom recommended your mocking, they be known as a "Bunch of Cants".
It's bad enough having a low SP, but a low humour level is much worst.
A very important lesson I learnt from our CEO when I first became a Manager, there are 3 types of people in life, this relates to this BB and the Business of SYME.
Positive people whom try to look at the good things, and how to improve themselves and others around them.
Make suggestions for helping make the job better, either for time, effort or cost. Go the extra mile in their role, always willing to help, really awesome people to work with whom are willing to teach you and hand over skills/experience.
Negative people that always focus on negative things and the things that have happened in the past. The world is to blame, it's always somebody elses fault, we need a pay rise, this company is the worst, don't like change and won't make a change because it's not our job to do so. Been like this for years, why do we need change, can't wait to retire.
Why should I clean up that spill, take out the waste bin, report that hazzard as it's not my job, somebody else will do it.
Neutral people, come to work every day. Do their jobs, don't complain as they like an easy life, why rock the boat and make enemies when you can keep quiet and let everybody else choose direction? also easily influenced by the other two types. Deep down actually like progress but don't know how to get there alone. Positive people will show them, Negative people beat them down.
From previous experience I know it's very difficult to be positive everyday, it takes so much less effort to do the minimum think they call it "quiet quitting" nowadays? Positive people just get on with it and work hard, not telling everybody who'll listen how good they are or how hard their job is. This isn't sustainable.
As I've said before, none of us know what is going on withing the inner workings of SYME/TF. I'm pretty sure they have some dire days with all the delays so far, but I'm also sure the majority are positive people who want to make a change and be a success in life.
From the RNS this morning, it seems to just be getting the finer details laid out, as I'm sure if they didn't then there would be somebody claiming cheat and calling the FCA? and once AZ and his team have all their "Ducks in a Row" then there will be the news, for good, bad or indifferent.
You can't please all of the people all of the time, but I'm happy and i'm sure there are others on here that try to be a positive person and improve their life and for those around them everyday. We're all here for one reason or another, I'm happy with my choices, why carry regret with yourself everyday?
Anyways good luck all.
The only people who know when the First IM is happening is the people involved with getting it to the finishing line.
As I have said before, only until you have been involved with running a project do you realise the hurdles that you have to cross, this being such a new and ground up project there has been everything to tackle.
There have also been a few unforeseen global issues since the first "we're ready to fly", a small pandemic which kind of stopped the world for a while and now the biggest recession seen for almost 40 years is around the corner.
We can all look back at the so called broken promises and timeline delays we've seen day after day, but that still never changes history and only the strong will look forward to what is possible. I still believe they were given in good faith with the information available at the time, AZ is passionate about this (FFS he's Italian, it's in his blood), he's spent years growing the business, but maybe enthusiasm has got ahead of gateways and milestones, but as mentioned before it's only the team involved that actually knows the struggle they have faced. Honestly, how many of you have done something and it's not gone to plan?
All I know is we all have a long weekend ahead, and there is zero point dwelling on what could have been so far, but instead look to what could be and enjoy the only thing we all know - there's going to be no SYME news until after the bank holiday, yes zero, fcuk all, nothing, nill, none, zilch, so nothing to get all wound up about for 72 hours.
For those casting doubt on this start up, yes it's called speculation which is why I'm here, yes I'm a big boy, can make grown up choices and hold my own in many situations from experiences I have learnt through life. I've read the facts and DMOR - this is one of my high risk / high reward investments (yes investment, not day trade).
Sadly, one thing I can be sure of and I'm sure that if your a ramper or deramper, pro AZ or pro TW, is that we're all involved with the global struggle we're all in currently and as winter gets closer and as borders get higher, there are wars declared, costs of living increase, all whilst wages stagnate, our jobs are lost, and our government battles for political points and instagram likes instead of showing leadership in a time of adversity, we all need to chill out as whatever happens - because it is mostly out of our control.
I'm going to close the laptop, open a bottle of cider and chill TFO out with the people I love, as none of us know when this will be our last time together. Have a great weekend and here's to the future and heres to hearing some amazing news about how this business can help others as the world changes, whenever that maybe.
Agree, there has been some great reasearch on here over the last few months, I'm not as LTH as some on here but I have learnt so much from reading here which helped my decision to top up today at sub 160, yes it was way more than my initial sub 1p investment but with the information available, we have to just sit back and wait for those who are in the know.
As many have commented before, the arrival of wombles and others who are not regular on here is a sign that the winds are about to change.

Ben, great review and explaination.
Loving the use of linked #hashtags, so hopefully even the simple hill folk from the common can understand in detail all aspects. Top Job, thank you.
Hi Bermondsey, hopefully this helps explain. Have a read and see how the dots start to join up with partners and locations for possible future alliances.
From RNS Fri 29th July -
"This follows the announcement made by the Company on 28 June related to the strategic alliance ("Agreement") signed with VeChain Foundation[1] ("VeChain") aimed at launching the Web3[2] stream and funding up to USD $10m of IM transactions, leveraging the minting of dedicated Non-Fungible Tokens ("NFT") directly subscribed by VeChain.
SYME and VeChain worked closely in July to design the integration processes between their respective platforms. As of today, the IM transaction is in the final stage of its completion which will involve the coordination of the formal signing process of the following Parties:"
From the VEChainThor Blockchain Website-
"Web3 - Decentralized Business, Distributed Token Economies
Phase one of the collaboration is already underway, with initial results due by end July 2022. The goal is to develop a proof-of-concept platform able to generate and deliver a blockchain transaction to an Italian company from SYME’s client portfolio via the VeChainThor public blockchain.
Following analysis and review of phase 1, the project will move to phase 2 and the development of a full Inventory Monetisation Platform due by December, 2022. Complete with a full roadmap of Web3 features, including the issuance of Non-Fungible Tokens (“NFT”) that represent digital ownership of physical items, B2B marketplaces, decentralized financial applications and an overall governance protocol, the platform promises to unlock brand new capabilities for manufacturing and trading companies."

All this talk of Sparrows and one must think of this, from Monty Python.
Three questions
[The knights look onward as Sir Lancelot steps forward to the Bridge keeper from Scene 24]
Bridgekeeper: Stop. Who would cross the Bridge of Death must answer me these questions three, ere the other side he see.
Sir Lancelot: Ask me the questions, bridgekeeper. I am not afraid.
Bridgekeeper: What... is your name?
Sir Lancelot: My name is Sir Lancelot of Camelot.
Bridgekeeper: What... is your quest?
Sir Lancelot: To seek the Holy Grail.
Bridgekeeper: What... is your favourite colour?
Sir Lancelot: Blue.
Bridgekeeper: Right. Off you go.
Sir Lancelot: Oh, thank you. Thank you very much. [Crosses the bridge]
Sir Robin: That's easy!
[The other knights rush to the bridge keeper]
Bridgekeeper: Stop. Who approacheth the Bridge of Death must answer me these questions three, ere the other side he see.
Sir Robin: Ask me the questions, bridgekeeper. I'm not afraid.
Bridgekeeper: What... is your name?
Sir Robin: Sir Robin of Camelot.
Bridgekeeper: What... is your quest?
Sir Robin: To seek the Holy Grail.
Bridgekeeper: What... is the capital of Assyria? [pause]
Sir Robin: I don't know that! [he is thrown over the edge into the ravine by an unseen force] AUUUUUUUUGGGH!
[Galahad prepares to cross, and the Bridgekeeper stops him]
Bridgekeeper: Stop. What... is your name?
Sir Galahad: Sir Galahad of Camelot.
Bridgekeeper: What... is your quest?
Galahad: I seek the Grail.
Bridgekeeper: What... is your favourite colour?
Sir Galahad: Blue—no! [he is also thrown over the edge] YEELLLLLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWW!
Bridgekeeper: [Chuckling at Galahad's demise, then turns to Arthur] Stop. What... is your name?
King Arthur: It is 'Arthur', King of the Britons.
Bridgekeeper: What... is your quest?
King Arthur: To seek the Holy Grail.
Bridgekeeper: What... is the air-speed velocity of an unladen swallow?
King Arthur: What do you mean? An African or a European swallow?
Bridgekeeper: Huh? I... I don't know that. [he is thrown over by his own spell] AUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGGGHHH!!
Sir Bedevere: How do you know so much about swallows?
King Arthur: Well, you have to know these things when you're a king, you know.
[Arthur and Bedevere begin to cross the bridge]
Think is none of us know what is going to happen or when, but at least we're not going to be thrown to our demise.

From H&L and the FAQ message sent about the Corporate Actions, HTH.
* Frequently Asked Questions
* Why is Supply@ME Capital plc doing an open offer?
The open offer is part of a fundraising looking to raise £7.5 million to enable the Company to settle the outstanding Mercator Loan Notes or Mercator CLNs in cash or with the issue of convertible loan notes which can be settled in cash up to 4 October 2022. The Company will use the remaining net proceeds of the Capital Enhancement Plan to fund capital expenditure relating to the Company’s business and to provide working capital for the Company.
* Who can take part in the open offer?
Anyone owning shares in Supply@ME Capital plc at the end of 21 July 2022 can take part.
* Where can I buy the shares?
As you hold the shares in your Stocks & Shares ISA you can buy the shares in here. Another option is to buy the shares in an HL Fund & Share Account. You will need to have an HL Fund & Share Account open with money available. Please note, just making the cash available in your Fund & Share Account is not enough – you’ll need to give a specific instruction to buy these shares outside of the ISA.
* How was the number of shares I can buy in the offer calculated? Can I buy more than this?
You have a guaranteed entitlement to buy 1 share for every 66 shares held at the end of 21 July 2022, rounded down to the nearest whole share. Your Stocks & Shares ISA has been given non-tradeable open offer entitlements to show this.
You can then apply for extra on top of this, but there’s no guarantee you’ll get all the shares you apply for.
* What are the terms of the warrants?
Each warrant will give you the right to buy a further share in the company. To convert a warrant into a share you’ll need to pay the exercise price, which is 0.065p per share. You’ll have the opportunity to do this up until 31 December 2025, at which point they’ll expire. The warrants will not be listed on the stock market so cannot be traded.
The warrants will not be a qualifying ISA investment. Any warrants you receive in the offer will therefore have to be removed from your ISA within 30 calendar days. If you receive warrants, we’ll contact you again to outline your options for removing them from the ISA.
* What happens if the share price falls below 0.05p?
If you ask us to buy shares for you in the open offer, they’ll be bought at 0.05p regardless of the Supply@ME Capital plc share price. You should check the latest Supply@ME Capital plc share price before making your decision, to make sure you don’t end up paying more than the current market price of the shares.
* What happens if I ask to buy more shares, but don’t have enough money on my account?
If there’s not enough money on your capital account to carry out your request, we’ll buy as many shares in the offer as possible for you.
Welcome to the BB Joe, there's no such thing as a stupid question if you don't know the answer.
Hopefully you'll learn a few things over the next few weeks as the ride kicks off as we're all in unknown waters.
The only things I've learnt is don't sell on a loss and whatever your decision is, right or wrong own it as it's your money and your choices.
GLA SYME Holders
Argo, congrats on your profit in ARB, whilst I cashed out too soon, it's always good to hear a success story from somebody, isn't that why we're all here? (rather than being missery demons, enjoying others miss fortune and losses with glee)
Fingers crossed that your previous profit grows here with similar gusto and we can all celebrate soon.
Much peace to all SYME holders, I'm going back to paddling about, chilling and waiting for that mighty wave to ride.
Exactly Ell, it's the buttered toast phenomenon.
Not selling a single one because as soon as I do it'll take off and as soon as I don't it'll drop back down, so best to make you're choice with what will happen long term and stick with it. Good to know it's not as big a loss as last week thou.
Then there are the Messiahs who tell us we're doomed and then call that they predicted the fall, like they guessed heads or tails on a coin toss.
Currently it's like waiting for a good set of waves when surfing, we've seen what it's like to have a swell but when it comes there will be nothing that can be done to stop it, you're either on and ready or not, so I'm going to go back to watching, waiting and then enjoy the ride when it comes.

Stevie, that's the fun of the day trade.
As a LTH I too had considered selling on the up, but as it was below my average it would have been a sale at a loss so no real point, but if it had dropped then you can obviously get more for your money and increase the holding.
But if it had continued to climb then it would have been difficult/impossible to buy back in and that makes the last two years holding pointless.
I did similar with ARGO a few years back, bought a 6p held - sold at 18p was happy as I had tripled my investment and then a few days later it went stratospheric and I missed out on much more.
Annoying, life changing opportunity missed but my choices.
GLALTH + FTW
Great positve atmosphere in here too since the long awaited rise and the departure of some people.
As the SP nears my average of 0.26, the feeling of euphoria gets better and better after years of negativity, long may it continue as I and I'm sure a few other LTHs review our exit strategy for the next 5 years.

Mike19, don't stress everybody learns and starts somewhere, this is only my second OO the last one was only last month.
Good work on posting your research material which shows there is no Dealing Charges. Hopefully it will help the information sink in with what is happening and how to go about the OO process with the local luddites.
GLALTH
Previous Open Offers / Warrants with HL have gone through without fee's, so it should be a case of selecting how many you want and submitting before the closing date, obviously ensuring you have the balance waiting in your account to cover it.
Ouch notalot, sympathys on the broken femur, hope it's not slowing you down too much.
But after putting Cancer into remission, "Tis but a scratch".

Kind of sums it up
Is it true that AZ is going to be making a surprise appearance at TW's Sharestock event on 10th September as one of the guest speakers?
Peak, it's like pouring knowledge through a sieve with some people, you can keep trying and maybe something will stick but most of it just passes through. What they still haven't learnt yet is us LTH ain't budging and we're just sitting waiting.
As always good luck to all LTH and FTW, going back to quietly sitting and waiting as I'm in this for the next 5 years before I sell anything.
Agree, a very positive presentation. Happy to be invested here and looking forward to the next stages.
Did I hear right, but did AZ call out TW by name at one point?
