...what a wonderful Group of Risk Takers !! The Webby Site certainly is overdue for an update as Steven is not shown and of course the total amount of shares floating ?? about out there is understated .Not sure of the cost of updating more frequently so if there is a cost factor am not that bothered ....just at present !!

Tango .. always remember your humourous comments here .. and we still need them and also for some other Short Termers to jump . Am not aware now of the position with the Warrant Holders but they always struck me as an entanglement on the rudder !! But Barrow is a beauty as is the town ... well at least in the Summer !!

......still persist whilst the Easterly Covid winds blow but the Crew have steadied the boat recently by showing top faith in the Captain and one or two of the Short Termers have gone overboard. Calmer waters may appear sooner than you think but today without knowledge of the timing of the ML decision and something more definitive about H&W ( one Isle of Man Ro-RO is not really enough ) the waters remain unsettled ..hold on tight as there is a lot riding on this voyage !!

Me too .have been buying --blues are blues !!--.the last two are not mine though !!!

Remember folks that not all sells are "sells " .This week may be changeable but June ...and July will be hot !!

Tuesday ---should be in the Blue judging by last week and all the recent "Buys" --we shall see but we are slowly getting close to >>>>>>>**** !!

At least they will be delighted with the "quick " turnaround ..in time for an evening sailing from Larne ?? Maybe we will have a few more next week in readiness for ferries soon to be needed again ?!

Yes,Chris .well spotted on your app .Not sure if the previous owners had P&O "on board" but this is a 20 year old ship and probably needs much maintenance ..not a bit like the BRAND NEW Chinese Built Stena Estrid which is laid up at Loch Ryan Port near Cairnryan with major engine troubles.we do need however some rather larger units in the big dock --they WILL come .I am assured !!

..The Brand new Stena Lie N.I. Ferry hot from China is undergoing urgent repairs to at least one of it's German Built Caterpillar Engines at Loch Ryan Port -Not sure if H&W engineers can go over and offer a helping hand ...see N.I. Ferry News today .Stena are bringing over a replacement Stena Nordica from Rotterdam as we speak ...Interesting !!

Am still here too ... waiting patiently!!!

Well done, Stephen in joining the I.I.'s ..or at least two of them ----you own the top right section of Samson and I am not referring to "scrap" value as hopefully both it and Goliath will be in good productive and constant us soon !!

Well, the Youtube podcast/interview with Donald Leggatt of LSE came and went in the week !

On the positive side as always JW came over as confident and eloquent using his wry Scottish accent and smile to best effect throughout with minimal interruptions to the flow and certainly not boring at all. "Now Look Ya here " seems to be his catch phrase !
We have a Midcap of about 8m. In anticipation of the interview and only partly as a result of the announcement on Tuesday of receipt at last of E.U. funds, there was seemingly exuberant activity in the market with over 1.2m value of shares purchased....now that is some value indeed with no real news on the Monday.So there is certainly pent up interest and demand but there will always be sellers until we have positively sound news not just " hope and expectation" as Fredr commented on Wednesday .
On the negative side we are still not clear as to the real reason for the extension of the consultation period,do we have any orders/work in the short term for the yard and are the employees being furloughed ?
JW is correct to say that he is not going to announce every new docking but the podcast gave no indication of actual likely occupation of both docks in the next 6 months as only reference to various "pipelines" and break even by year end .No mention of Barrow and any extension of the FSRU project. Only a glancing comment !
So we just have to hope that ML will indeed be just 4-6 weeks away with no hiccup,that H&W do have some firm dockings scheduled and that the money men and financiers have not given up on the project after Covid-19 and can still lead us to FID say by June/July ---hope indeed ! If JW pulls FID off and keeps H&W ticking over to break even he will have secured a blinder for this AIM Tiddler --One last thing..... there are increasing rumours of employment issues in N.I. and Larne area is not excluded !!

Interesting reminder Loosegoose of the “February Leg Breakers” ‘s terms ....but where would we be now without that working capital and could we achieve any such financing in the current market !! ? Just need some news that there is work in hand for April-May.

I hope they put the lights out before closing the dock gates ...and left a Bankers Order or even better "Cash " in the secret place ...no doubt there will be another ferry soon ..will let you know !!

Speedy's post of yesterday,whilst being a "good" find ( and well done by the way for his efforts ),it does not really add much that is already in the public domain about the national situation with Gas Storage and the problems with our various projects.
When we have final news that the M.L. is available ( with "reasonable and workable " conditions ) and assuming that JW's contacts are not affected or dissuaded by Covid-19 and still able to support us with Debt/Equity Finance enabling us to proceed at last to FID then the current doldrums will abate ..otherwise the storm will return with a vengeance.
More news soon about the cheque from Brussels, the result of D.D. at Barrow (and an extension of exclusivity if required and applicable) and finally some evidence of decent and significant contracts in the pipeline for H&W will all help to ride the storm if I.M. hits rocks --Most unlikely IMHO !! I fear though that we all have quite some further waiting to do, so get the 2000 piece jigsaws out --I have !!

............have been out trading this morning ..They must be worried ?!!

Hopefully the money to cover bill for the repair was left at the gate before it was opened ..looking forward to much bigger "fish " soon !

Should of course have referred to M.V. Isle of Inishmore --well done those who spotted my quiz mistake !!

...........is also now in dock so JW and his team at H&W have been busy ! This 1997 built Irish Ferries vessel usually on the Rosslare to Pembroke Dock route was ( according to N.I. Ferries Web Site) going to have a Scrubber Installation ( fancy words probably for a new cleaning contract fulfillment ) at Remontowa in Gdansk Poland but because the sister ship having the same is taking so long this was postponed and we have a brief docking ..I suppose better than nothing ..
Someone more capable than I will be able to provide the link --Chris perhaps !! Anyhow in these "dark" times all this is better than no activity being shown though I understand that there a lots in the pipeline (excuse the pun ),I suppose ...stay safe!!

......is now currently moored in our smaller dock at H&W. She is Norwegian owned by Misje Rederi AS and Bahamian flagged ( Nassau) Built in 1991 she is a small Bulk General Cargo vessel.She has been moored alongside for about a week probably waiting for JW to cash the cheque !! At least there is work to do in the yard amidst all the gloom now !!
