Blueboyz, I seem to remember we did achieve the dizzy heights of somewhere in the region of £750 million market cap but am willing to be corrected. In any case it was a huge valuation but at the time seemed reasonable with the sheer TCF potential & AIM excitement it all engendered...but that's Alternative Investment market for you! But back in 2011 (if memory serves) we had a huge rise in MC &SP on the back of an imminent drilling campaign in Italy. From 6p (pre-consolidation) we rose to 66p - and I never sold a share. Once bitten twice shy!

Good morning, Adam, Sundance, and all. So we finally got tossed a bone with some real meat on it. I think the main gripe investors have here is the elasticated timelines. Let's hope this kickstarts some real action before we, the original investors are in our dotage! It's been 14 years for me & many more here so I hope 2025 is the year we finally show our intent to produce serious volumes of gas.

Crude...congrats to the Management for getting this deal over the line & giving us some early Christmas cheer!

He's no James Parsons, that's for sure. At least JP added "value creation" prior to value destruction!

The current incumbent hasn't given us so much as a bone to chew on let alone any offel...awful really!!

Happy Christmas

Crude...ho ho ho

Ps, that's BS. He won't be selling anyone down any rivers. What he might do is (from strength) negotiate a peace with the Russians that may repatriate Crimea & nothing else. He can flood Ukraine with arms & tell Putin he can never win while he is President. There is too much speculative bs regarding what he may or may not do - let's see what he can actually achieve.

No 'Trump boost' as yet but it's great to see he has such a huge mandate. A clean sweep means he can get down to business & sort out the problems in Ukraine & the Middle East. How the markets react & interest rates move is yet to be seen. But whoever won needed the mandate of the people & Trump seems to have it. We need a strong United States & I believe we have it now with the Republicans...even the Junior Market on Wall Street got a boost!

Congrats to 'The Donald'

Kylie, even the great 'Nostradamus' didn't predict the downfall of Sound Energy. Maybe you should change your name to Caesonia - the 'Sibyl of Sound - certainly sounds more prophetic than Kylie! I live in awe of your Oracle-like predictions & will now have to wait until your 0.5 p prophesy comes to pass before I throw more money down the drain!

Cheers as always, Crude

What money? Have I missed something... Are we in the money? I thought we were heavily in debt. Did Sound Energy win Euromillions whilst my back was turned...its always the way. Tell me where the 'money' is and I'll follow it...........

Did anyone hear that excellent Radio 4 serial called 'The 6 Billion Dollar Gold Scam'? Did Guzman fake his own death whilst making off with millions of shareholder money? So-called 'salting' of the core samples was a pretty deliberate act. The Company was a Canadian penny share that rose to 6 billion Canadian Dollars & is excellently portrayed in the film 'Gold', with Matthew McConaughey. But the Radio 4 programme is even better & can be found on BBC Sounds.

Cheers as always, Crude

Turnoffthelights, I don't doubt they are but we are ALL here to make money. Don't fall in love with the value & perceived future value of a company... see a profit, take a profit is my mantra these days - especially on the AIM!

Crude

KTF, I top sliced at near their height of value so my remaining shares I hardly think about. But I do have a deep affinity with Sound Energy & hope we succeed so everyone is made whole. I love the idea of what we are doing & I do like Morocco. All this green energy talk brings me down. The AIM O&G is nothing like it used to be & that, for me, is sad.......

Crude

Well thank you PS for your candour but it all sounds a little negative. I appreciate your workings but if we have a good day with the drill bit, a following wind & no 'Just Stop Oil' protesters who knows what the share price might achieve in a morning of trading? Remember our share price & value prior to Marciano & Java? Our sp rocketed from 6p to 67p just on anticipation of a drilling campaign. The AIM is a very volatile market so fingers on buzzers when the time comes!

But the AIM is like a casino where many people lose their shirts...it has needed 'Reform' for ages so let's hope we get it...

Crude...Reform is where it's at if we want honest trading & not dodgy gambling!

The last day before Purda & I wonder who here will vote & who for? Or is it, mind your own business...

Personally, I think politics needs reform. There are more parties than ever & they are not properly represented. So we need 'Reform'....

Crude...apologies for O/T but we are at a crossroads.

Kylie, you say & I quote: "Being a shareholder in SOU must feel like the most toxic Groundhog Day". Prety compelling evidence that you are not a shareholder. So why are you here? By your own implied admission you have no financial interests. What do you gain from posting here?

Just been cold called from some company registered with the FCA regarding compensation through the misseling of shares. Apparently some trading advice company went bankrupt in 2018 & are being 'class Actioned '. Anyway, I never took any such advice from any company. I took a tip from someone on ii called 'The Mysteron' back in 2009. Any here heard of this poster...he did me a favour & I'd like to thank him.

Cheers all...Crude

Eric, I'd entirely forgotten about him. But from what I now remember...he never had that much imagination..........did he?

Cheers...Crude

StMary, got as far as tiller. Like you say, it was a long time since I was on Eggheads...

Cheers....Crude

Need more clues - I'm not feeling cryptic!

StMary - are we talking 'Walter Mitty'? Wasn't that Ben Stiller - lol!

Cheers...Crude

Kylie, lmao - you buying shares.........

Yours affectionately, Crude

Adam, you are the true gentleman but thanks for your kind comment.

StMary, you'll have to give me a clue.

In the meanwhile...come on Leeds Utd!

Cheers, Crude

OK Kylie, so who did we know you as before your current guise?
