took me 3 months to design the installation, pump stations were done by other contractors i had the pipe to design. had two teams of surveyors on site scoping the route for me and feeding back what we were crossing levels terrain etc, just over 4 years to build in total once construction started. Most was above ground using 12m socketed lengths on piers with stainless hold downs, so pretty straightforward, its the route that always gives the most difficulty, apart from the pumps which luckily wasnt down to me to sort.

thats a how long is a piece of string auestion, depends on the spec and i have no idea what it is. If, for example, they need a cheap low flowrate overland small pipe for a short distance, they could buy drums of poly and string it out on the surface, breaking it with storage tanks at the heights suitable for the pumps head they have chosen to use. That would be extreamely quick to install using drums and reasonably cheap. But if they want higher flows or more secure pipework (buried or anchored) then your dealing with a different beast alltogeather. Just impossible to say with the details avaliable to me.
What they do need to do is 'soften' their demand and balance it over a 24hr period, that will reduce pipe sizes (cheap install and faster) and reduce pump costs to the most economic level.
Its clearly a bigger issue to them than they say imho, as its taken forever to get the quotes and no pipework has started, in fact they went the borehole route instead, so obviously a few issues to obtain from Orange River.

will depend how much their input flow requirement is realy, the height to lift the water and the distance to push it. Solar wont cut it though, just doesnt have the ooompth. Assume they will recycle (obvious) and use multitanks to lift it and store.
Ive designed bulk water supply pipelines all over the world as a freelance consultant, and been in the UK industry (ps we are not all stupid) for 30 years. Mentioned this a year or two back and got shredded for it. Last one i designed was a 200mile long di overlander in Kazaghstan, its built now.

woodstock. im not a holder here, and wont be buying as i have a policy of avoiding aim stocks totally in my investments after previous experiences. But i am interested in what the consequences are elsewhere that affect either my health or portfolios negatively.
I can however confirm that a crucial order for JLR that is required for vehicles, due to be delivered at the end of March, are stuck in China and wont make it in time. They are not the small parts you see mentioned being shipped in suitcases on the news. I cannot elaborate further as i will create issues for family members at director level in the supplying business.

woodstock. i remember it well, the passenger only had a white cape/suit on, but NO mask or headgear at all. Both of them are complete tools for risking themselves like that.
I also wonder if they will destroy the vehicles like the Novichok vehicles were? If they dont have a cure, how can you clean them successfully, the answer is you cannot of course. Its the legs that grow that are the problem

i wouldnt like to be the coach driver that transported the evacuees to the nhs quarantine centre. He was clearly shown on BBC website NOT wearing any protective chlothing at all. I assume the authorities will be isolating him and all the people hes been near this last few days. Couldnt beleive it when i saw the item.

my ipad just refreshed so missed the confirmation a few mins ago.

Imho, they need to give some detail and progress on the water costs/installation to move this one further. You can have all the resource in the world, but if you cant extract it you have nothing.

let the sceptic have a guess. Each party owns 2.5% each, so the statement cannot be checked?

No harm done Breathe am also more than happy to wear a smile and leave it at that. As you say we all have our own strategies that suit us all honed over a long period in some cases, in my case im a longtermer dabbling in a bit of trading over a few recent years (i could have picked an easier period to start for sure).
Completely agree that we all 'chew the fat' and natter about all sorts on here, Its a really great board this one, got to be the best and most supportive friendly one on lse by miles. We're all a different bunch of characters, preferring different methods tactics risks and sectors, we share our thoughts and frustrations daily which is great to collectively learn from, hopefully to make a few quid along the way but i sense thats not the only reason most of the regulars are on here for.
Glad you made a few quid yourself on NCYT, and your donating monies is a real nice and charitable gesture that says a lot about you that you can be proud of. Have a great weekend, shall keep a watch on that rollercoaster on Monday :)

breathe, happy to hear you have apparantly done well out of this one, knew we would.
However i am always sceptical of anybody popping up from nowhere spouting such confidence on a different share and encouraging others to buy in, especially on Aim, whilst telling the rest of us not to be sentimental etc etc over our own choice of investment
. I noted that you had been on lse for 5 years, yet only posted around 75 times in all that time until you started on about ncyt, you then doubled your post count in a month - that makes me quite sceptical for obvious reasons. Aim is nothing other than a casino where most investors lose money as all experienced investors know. Indeed some people have lost heavily so that you can allegedly benifit from their investements.
Good luck to you in your choices, but balance is needed in such situations, ncyt going from 8p to £7 and back down to 8p then upto £2ish ish over the years makes it clearly a gamble, oh and others called it first at a better price (just once).

Good to know George, one for a bit of fun only i thought.

Have a good weekend all, hopefully a dry one.

you may be for now, who knows, but with volumes decreasing you wont be soon i fear. oh no he isnt, oh yes he is

up early then paperboy? Enjoy the weather in the morning.

nah, i appreciate the comedy value, normally i have to pay to attend a pantomine at Christmas, your daily nonsense is free to read :)

And on that point i would (unbelievably i know)entirely agree with you, im a non union man, find most of them just destroy productivity and efficency wherever they are.

more insults, you really are showing your stupidity up here. Stick with the unskilled job mate, i recon its at your limit.

im on no bandwagon, and dont have time for insults or insulters. Those that do that have already lost the argument. I raise a very valid point that a 6p increase on a stamp is a substantial % increase and not warranted.
If your rent went up by 6p you'd not notice, but if it went up 8% you'd moan like mad, its a fact.

oh look 178p now.

dont drink im afraid, no need to see things through blind mans beer goggles like some, i prefer reality.

Not looked at the share price either lately, bet Falkland was wrong as well eh?

what has financial compliance got to do with Uk stamp prices? or minimum wages?
