What do I know?
Oh well, the sun will definitely shine again

I'll have to get another 2000 before August 3rd or else

Queue 10 deep outside our Greggs this morning as I grabbed my coffee & tuna baguette
You just know where this business is going and we best get our moon boots on

My 1000 are in the bottom draw, I'll be in for a good while now

Im not worried in the slighest, been in a good while, even upped my holding by another 2000 and way infront on total outlay.
minor setback, that's all but how anyone can be complaining after the recent returns on this holding is beyond me.
Stick in there for the long haul and more rewards will be your lot

Thanks V.P
Looking forward to next weeks update and beyond, as I tweek my portfolio

Only just entered the world of Ocado with my 1000 purchase today, cheers for the insights and positivity guys.

Bought another 2000 today as I think any news coming out Thursday will be well received

It was never in doubt, shame some can't see the benefits of being well invested in this wealth creator
Hope you all buy your coffee and sandwich here to boost the profits and not cost-a-lot ;0)

Patience being the all important word,
It hasn't ever crossed my mind to turn my paper loss into a real one, all or nothing here!

Nice comments and I've found myself in the same boat as yourself
Still have the initial 1500 I bought ex divi and I'd be very happy if the loss I'm showing is narrowed or possibly better?

Topped up with another 750 and have no doubts whatsoever about the outcome,
Busy, Busy Busy, Can't wait for the next update on full trading

They'll be plenty of ups and downs whilst there's a quid buck to be made but best be in by the next update, as the last one proved when it shocked us all in a day.

I still stare at the 1k red mark by the 1500 I'm still holding and it's been an expensive lesson but I had the chance and opportunity to sell, not once but twice and didn't
No point crying over spilt milk, learn from it, like you said

If they get anywhere near that I'd be a very happy man, £9-50 would be more realistic and I'd still be clicking my heels at that

Halma have been progressive over the long term with a rising dividend to match,
Back in 1983 they were a pound a share and my 3157 holding from that time has been through all the market crashes and turbulence to the present day
So glad they made it ;0)

Should have said 'As shares go' and like the utilities, proving to be a relative safe haven over the long term but even in the short term, opportunities have been there ready to grasp
The drop below £12 last year was the greatest one of all if you took advantage, the recent climb above £27 was another and most certainly offers reassurance that, come the next update on full trading capacity,
The numbers should stack up and take them on further.

Fabulous raise in the sp this morning, good news all around.

Greggs are a money making machine and their business model fits in with current lifestyles, I have 2000 shares in the company and feel overjoyed to see the queues out the door.
As safe a bet as you'll ever get and I'll keep buying as I see them as a £30 share in the future.
