Trellis, I was actually referencing Garfeld's humorous Adam Ant comparison - but who didn't like the diminutive one back in the 80s! Let's hope James isn't so dandy...

Garfield, don't tell me....your 'dandy highwayman' will spend your cash on looking flash and grabbing your attention": stand and deliver...your money or your shares!!

Crude...never more optimistic than now...........there is no dandy highwayman, only in Garfield home movies. The history of this new hydrocarbon province is about to be written...and we private investors are the stars and the heroes of that epic...the story that is written in the stars above and below Morocco...destiny itself is calling to those who can read the runes!

Soundsrich, I'm coming up from a Worthing train train stop so we could meet up if you decide to train it. But I haven't booked my ticket yet so don't know what train I am catching. I suspect this AGM will be a little better attended than just me, Appiamma and half a dozen more...a sure sign of promise and sucsess when an AGM facility has room for 300 investors..........packed Mansion House I reckon!

jack, I guess it all depends on your perspective & what aspirations you had..triple digit golden tickets might not equate to just 84p...I'd be amazed & disappointed if it did...

Jack, DJREDS, although I can't yet mathematically reconcile in my head more that £2, I would sure be disappointed with anything under £2 per share. I & my hard earned haven't languished this long for a nice profit...I'm here for a 'Wolf of Wall Street' killing. Besides my personal feelings about risk/wealth I don't believe JP, JJ, Richard etc would let this potential go for a song. Tendrara could be huge. BTW, 'huge' is a word that I will quote regularly because it resonates, especially among high ranking Sound staffers. I have asked on several occasions how our prospect portfolio could be valued by a perspective buyer & received a range of answers...which I have previously published. But what we cannot know is what James said to me in part reply...it all depends on a buyers risk appetite...............so no real enlightenment there...............

trellis, that's how I feel about the dentist..but as my dentist was finishing examining me earlier he said he should make a temporary filling permanent & this would require more drilling. As I collected my reminder card from Reception for the date of 22nd May I could not have known it would be the date of maybe our last AGM. Now that, in Roman augury, would be regarded as hugely fateful!

Jez, I am never abusive, not even to my old nemesis testpack. Yes I am sure there are investors/gamblers who hate my positivity & yes, I am JPs number one fan - we go all the way back to 2011, when James first came down to lunch with me in Sussex. Lots of subsequent informal meet-ups since & I have been impressed enough to add more shares over the years. It's fair to say I feel he has been our company saviour. Regarding Sarah Dees I have no idea what you refer to except to add I have the highest respect for her. She has been a superb addition to the team and is never anything short of professional in her actions & her commitment is second to none. Anyway, time to get back to the ranch, wifey is calling......

Cheers as always, Crude

I will be attending on 22nd May...funny enough I have just booked a dental appointment for that day...soon to be rescheduled. I would not want to miss what could quite possibly be an EGM (he said hopefully)......

Jez, I am sure we are all feeling a range of emotions - from 'spooked' to frustration, boredom, concern, cautious optimism - to hurrah, peel the bells, this time next year we'll be millionaires! The problem is we only know so much & the company are keeping shtum about this well test. I have my theories about what is really going on but am keeping them to myself for now. Anyway, I am being true to my 'Sound' self and remain hugely confident!

Jez, it's a check up...no drilling involved.

What I & many here dislike about your comments is you seem to relish your prediction of failure. Your last line of the reply to me ilustrates my point succinctly. Maybe just stick to the humour, I can at least appreciate that.....

Jez, the 'circus' is all in your head & you are it's only clown. Granted, clowns are scary & I guess that is what you are trying to do...scare people! You have no idea about whether the location for TE10 was a good choice or not...nobody here has! You know we were told some time ago future RNSs would be aimed at potential suitors & that we would be the last to know of any company sale. Like us, you have no idea of what is going on in the background & what may be causing any delays. Instead, even though your purport to be invested, you keep talking this well down. Something does not add up with you for sure! Anyway, I'm off to the Dentist for a check up...I suggest you go to a Psychologist for a full examination!

Crude

Testpack, like to oblige but I am currently at the flicks about to watch Red Joan. Then I am out to dinner & tomorrow I will be working hard at the Gulag, breaking rocks. Tomorrow evening I'm doing my hair...getting the picture? I'm just too busy these days..........

Simon, the mortgage is already paid off thanks to AIM!

Davey, I agree with Soundingoff...there could be numerous reasons for purposely delaying the project. I remember talking to James years ago about Shlum asking about their possible intentions re our LE & at the time he said he thought Shlumberger would be happy to sell when we did. So maybe the delay is because a 75% equity buyout is being lined up and as soon as Sclum have converted all their synthetic interests to a proper licence format a sale can be negotiated...post results (which they probably already know are more than encouraging) & GSA. I feel it beyond my Ken that delays are due to bad planning...on the contrary, this imo is being deliberately slowed down to suit interested LE parties. We of course will be the last to know.

Shaun, there are none so blind as those who will not see: I wasnt trying to emphasise my Englishness, quite the contrary. If you bothered to try to understand my point it was that I celebrate the Union of Great Britain & Ireland... a collection of like minded peoples who live in close proximity and who actually can cellebrate their own cultures whilst remaining component parts of a whole, United Kingdom: don't try and twist what I say because you have no idea about how I feel about my nation or nationality......

Shaun, if that is directed at me than you totally failed to understand my meaning. Did you not pick up the fact I fly the Union flag because I celebrate being in the United Kingdom. But regional celebrations are surely acceptable...if not, try asking the Scots on Burns Day if they would like forget the whole thing...not a cast chance in hell!

Gasbag, let's just celebrate St George's Day...23rd April...today!

The one day we can truly celebrate being 'English'...if indeed, that is what we are. If not, just wait for other cultural promotional days to celebrate your particular brand of faith/culture/gendure, etc & so on....................personally, I fly the Union flag above my house as I love the idea of Great Britai - definitely not just England! But today is all about the Cross of St George (or...St James Parsons).........

Test pack, I could argue most of your claims but the salient fact to be considered is this: when James wrestled command from previous CEO incumbent, Gerry 'no oil well' Orbell, in October 2012, he literally saved the Company from bankruptcy & oblivion. He re-financed us in an innovative fashion that dilution attritioned, literally drowning shareholders, were as grateful for as a sinking person grasps a lifebelt. He has positioned us for possible AIM stardom. IMO, His forthcoming deal will make everyone a handsome profit, where previous to his stewardship, few could even imagine any of their investment would be returned! LTH will know exactly what I mean...James has been a superb CEO so far...I expect him to be constant and true to investors until the end...the imminent LE!

Crude

Partridge....yeah but apart from that what has James Parsons ever done for us..........lol!!
