Have a top up at this rate. I have some spare cash and was going to put it in President. That may be the more prudent thing to do but I remain very confident Sound will come good. I'm pretty certain after hearing our Chairman speak in Morocco that all eventualities are planned for and that they 'have investors backs. I'm happy with that and may well add to my holding this afternoon or tomorrow.

Dixie, I am hoping some of my footage...the site visit and Q&A will be available soon on our SRIG Chanel

The film on now I saw at the cinema and depicts the off-shore tradgedy of what became known as Macondo...'the well from hell'. It is an awesome film and reminds one of how dangerous oil and gas fields can be. So with that in mind I want to wish all the crew of our Saipan rig drilling at the TE9 well in Tendrara good luck and may the well be safe and succesful for all involved.

dd, Ducati...no chain throwing as they have such inovations as Hawksbill to grab the the drill string. I was asking Jason Canning about this and he demonstrated on his hand how fingers were regularly lost throwing chain around pipe.

I must admit I was fascinated being advised about the various drill bits and pipes...the various weights, diameters and the way they can agitate when stuck...the rifling and extra weight added close to the drill bit to avoid sticking. Clumsy description but you know wnat I am saying.....

ddboy, you're an absolute star and you bring colour and clarity to the drilling process for all interested investors. I think we all appreciate your 35 years of drilling experience...I certainly do. Shame you couldn't make Morocco, it would have been great to meet up.

Cheers to you...Crude

Trellis, no she was more soft and ebony... are those concrete cows still there in Milton Keynes...after all those years?

Mayb e I should give Norwhich a second chance. Funny enough I was sat next to a love,y young lady on the flights to Casablanca and back to Gatwick and she professed her undying love for Milton Keynes...I thought she was joking but she was full of earnest intent...Milton Keynes was born Again! So anything you say about Norwich has to be given due consideration in case my judgement has somehow been impaired all these years! We pronounce judgement on all manor of things too easily and too lightly I guess......

DesertMocks, thats always a possibility but I was enthused when our Chairman, Richard Lidel, ( a very likeable geordie) said "we have got shareholders backs", when talking about mitigating as much risk as the Company can. There are plan As and B.s. because nobody wants to lose out at this stage. It is all about protecting shareholder value and enhancing it with the minimum risk possible. Mr Lidel always seems a very genuine person whenever I have met him...someone that inspires confidence in his role as Chairman of Sound Energy.

St Mary, good boy. If you have the cohones to drive an Aventador you'll love it. I'm more shy and retiring so will stick to a Mclaren 570 spider and a Caterham.............

Trellis, yes I had a great time in Morocco and love the people and landscape. The culture is also very interesting.

Yesterday was a blast driving a Caterham...maybe once we've all got our cars sorted out we can come out to Norwhich. I went there once but must admit the charms of the city and surrounding environs and landscape totally escaped me. I am so used to living in a hilly location on the South Downs that flat features hardly do it for me...

Talking about Norwhich beats talking about cars......................................

Totally agree Flamemaker...what a buzz!

Woodrow, I had a fantastic drive in a Caterham 310 R...what acceleration and engine noise with the overruns creating a snap, crackle and pop as you drive. I couldn't take a 620s out so Lord knows what they are like...I want one for sure! The most fun you can have on a country lane!

Cheers Crude...o/t

What an appalling thought testpack.Anyway, I really don't think anyone knows what you are rambling on about....

It's a lovely day to drive a Caterham...and that is what I am doing in about an hours time!

Morning Ponks...filtered is always best...you should know lol!

Off up to Crawley this arvo to test drive a Caterham 620s....should be fun!

Ducati, I have to say I had the most enjoyable time I could have imagined. The investors I spent time with were a pure joy to be with; James & co were great company, both at the post-presentation & the day before - but entertaining outside of the Hotel confines as some of us enjoyed a frolicking night out! The TE-9 trip was special as were the days out in Oujda & beyond as again, some of us shared a taxi & discovered the local area as far as the coast to the north and through the mountains. I certainly hope I get the chance to return to Oujda sometime...& of course the rest of Morocco.

Testpack, what are you on about? That was a short 'Sound'bite quote from a video you will hopefully be able to see shortly. There is plenty of interest in what we are doing. But what he meant in context is our permits will be 'hugely exciting' to some major players...but to us & our investors they are going to be 'hugely profitable'...because of the fact we are invested in a much smaller company than an IOC & as a result shareholders will feel the benefit much more than the likes of Shell investors, for instance! Stop trying to make a drama out of an obviously self-explanatory quote......

Talking of rig videos, I have now sent off some of my pics and video of the site visit, presentation and some extras to our SRIG team who, given time constraints, will hopefully have it out on our channel by the weekend. I have much more footage of the trip in general but that will be nostalgia for me when I am hopefully looking back on our success...and I do think we will be sucesfull. No other company on the AIM has done as much as us to mitigate shareholder risk through seismic and ariel scientific studies.

Quoting James at the Q&A: "whilst we think this is going to be hugely attractive to some very large players I have to say it is going to be hugely exciting and profitable for us all"...........?

Rushfan, I'm feeling the love brother - Assalam Alaikum...shukraan jazilaan.

Guys, Plan A is very much where we are at and everyone seems enthused. James, Mohamed & Brian are very pleased with our progress & our chances.

Pablo, I'm not at liberty to discuss too much from Morocco...what happens in Morocco stays in Morocco. Besides, you know as much as I do if you have kept up with all the latest presentations...the only advantage I have is the colour & feeling you get from close proximity to Sound staff in a distant location like Oujda.

PNE, to be honest, I wish I hadn't mentioned 'Plan B'...they make better music than Sound Energy propositions. But every responsible company has a backup plan & I am glad that we have mentioned it. We don't want to be seen as too binary and al eggs in one basket. All Richard was saying is we have optionality. Personally, I would sooner know where my escape routes or fire doors were in case of emergency. Anyone who doubts that concept isn't being honest with themselves in my view...get your head round the concept & you may find it makes sense.
