Feel exhausted and got a headache now! But I’ve got the money in place for Tuesday 3pm which is my cut off day for OO. I am promising now to everyone this will be the very last time I put any more money into Sirius. I am now going to sit back, not stress and just see what happens over the next few years. If I don’t get my extra shares I will keep the money in the account and buy if they go below 15p but if they don’t I won’t! Never thought I’d get the chance to buy again at 15p - I guess there are a few around that can say I told you so but hopefully they won’t take any pleasure in doing so!

Morning Casapinos - I remember saying I’d look forward to the day when you bought back in!

I can’t understand why the Norges Bank news can be nothing but good news. Sirius was always going to be so much bigger than us private investors - it has to be if LTHs want to see it grow in the way we all hoped when we invested. It does hurt when they can get in at 15p when some of us have big paper losses but that’s why they are the huge organisations they are. It’s our choice to not use these big companies and pay their huge fees but if we all hang on for a year or two we will have shares worth the same as the ones they have - they are not investing in Sirius not to make a profit #beyondwoodsmith (morning Scotman)!

Having said that I don’t think it will go much cheaper but clearly some on here do! (Not thinking of anyone in particular ....rooster)!

Do you think that’s why pi’s got such s low percentage of the OO - because they were worried they would buy cheaper and not take their allocation?

Mines 3.00pm 14th May

Thanks avocet - - last sentence of my last post ‘because he’s asked for more’ of course it should be ‘she’s’!! or actually ‘they’ve’! ....whatever ..

I just wondered if I was to apply for over my 1 for each 22 how does anyone think it will work. If someone was to apply for 1000 and someone else applies for 500,000 do you think they’ll get same % - or will the 500,000 request get a higher percentage because he’s asked for more?

John 2015 - I’m so sorry that you feel you won’t be able to fully enjoy the success of Sirius. Nothing in life is certain so hopefully you will. I’m doing this for my family more than I am for me. It’ll probably be too late for my mid life crisis of sports cars, motorbikes etc etc. But let’s hope the next few years are more positive and you never know - we might still be drinking champagne at £1 party and I’m going to buy you one or rather a bottle!

I’m with Mr.dt Myo - so glad you’re back as well!

Hi Emily, right now I would love to live near and be able to drive past so its great when locals post!

SL’s gone but hopefully the others just need a break from this board and come back!

I just thought even though I’ve managed to get ‘away from it all’ and am currently sitting by the pool in the sunshine I would read a couple of days posting. Wish I hadn’t. Where’s Myo gone? I expected the share price to have fallen and have told myself it might be a repeat of Stage 1. It wasn’t that that disappointed me but reading the board. The last week has been depressing enough and I do feel for all those that have got such big paper losses, myself included! It’s ****. I’m cross as well. But I feel like doing what a lot of LTHs are doing and that’s taking a step back from this board. Trouble is it leaves the way clear for all the rubbish posts. After Stage 1 I felt like **** but actually the board kept me going - now it's doing the opposite. Rooster would be delighted to see 6p - okay let him have his ******* 6p but I know give this share a few years and we will be in a very different position. I’m so sorry for anyone that hasn’t got time. Anyone can say what they want about the future but I know what I’m going to do, I know I could have played it better (and am cross with myself) I agree the past hasn’t been great and I’m ****** off but I’m buying some more if I can to try and offset the dilution, I’m not selling and even though I know little about investing I do know investing in mining is high risk. This is not nice, reading this board is not nice, probably the next few months will be not nice - I know that so anything anyone says won’t make any difference to me. I just hope some of the LTHs don’t give up on this board - thank God some of them are still here!

Glad you’re still here Chesh!

Thank you HopefulDave - in my last post I couldn’t find the words to describe what was missing from the board and you just demonstrated what I was trying to say!

I’m sure Myo will be back. Things here would definitely not be the same. There has also been a general absence of some of the regular posters over the last days which has added to the disappointments

Thank you - so i’ll sort it out when I get back (if I do)!

Sorry to ask a question I should know but going away for a few days and haven’t had any time to read the boards. In spite of knowing what could go wrong - effects of dilution, bonds got to be sold in September, possible further dilution, grumpy husband saying I told you so! - my gut feeling remains a bit bruised but still there! I never had a magic figure in my head, always was a long term thing - I feel in order to take advantage of where we’re at i’d like to try and be ready to take advantage of buying a few more. I know I won’t be allocated many - but I can apply for more? - will I get a letter about this from the stockbroker and what will be the timing? Or I know I could buy them anyway if, which I hope we don’t have a repeat of Stage 1 and the share price goes lower - I’m not sure we will - but what do I know! I feel I could have played all this a bit better but I want to be able to give myself the option of buying some more if I decide to! Sorry we’ve all had a bit of a rubbish few days! Would appreciate any response!

I think private investors can buy 1 15p share for every 22 held

I remember the board as helping me through some quite tough days - My initial investment into Sirius didn’t go well at all I bought in secret from my husband at 25p and it pretty quickly dropped to17p for what seemed like ages. The only thing I could do was buy some more at 17p! I told him when the SP reached 25p again and I was forgiven! It seemed to take a long time to recover and I remember thinking it never would. I remember the board was great at that time, full of hope and positivity - but it was all very new to me. Of course we had lots of negativity as well. I think it might be a bit like deja vu again and it doesn’t seem right after all the progress that we’re back there again. The only thing is he’s just got home and you can guess what his first words were to me - we did top up at 23p a while ago which he wasn’t exactly dead keen on! Luckily he’s got distracted by football!
