Thank you GingerHippo,

Tiddlor, was that last word of yours Twitter.. :-)

I will guess Spikeyj writes/compiles all his posts on a mobile phone? Why anyone would wish to do so is anyone's guess.. :-)

Morning Pompeyrod, lovely post sir, well said.
All the best

Hi Thrift, sorry if I was outspoken I did not intend to offend, no I genuinely at the time could not think of the opposite word to the one you used and as I said took the post and its lovely sentiment as intended, I did say I think as I was not totally sure and made a joke about it, but try as I might I could not find its use as a joyful adjective, its normal use would be to convey sadness at recalling a sad event, such as for example poignant is the anniversary of September 11th for those who lost loved ones in the 2001 attacks. If I'm wrong then I stand corrected and hope you will forgive me as I will have learned something.
Kind regards
Ian

Currently, I think the company are pursuing a game of Brinkmanship:-

What is the concept of brinkmanship?
Brinkmanship is pushing a situation to the point of disaster without quite going over the edge. Brinkmanship is mainly a political policy. When you're on the brink of something, you're right on the edge. In politics, brinkmanship is an approach in which a country pushes a situation extremely close to a dangerous point.

I think they have absolutely no intention of delisting, being one of the first on AIM and having had two decades to have done so had they chosen to do so, as Nathdomb has stated they are very smart and have their future reputations to consider, everything was going so well for the company before suspension and since we have been informed of new equipment supplied and a new 56 person crew shelter, all this in my mind points to wanting to continue.

We can all only guess what is going on behind closed doors as none of us know but it does point to a good outcome and we will all know one way or the other soon enough, keep the faith, everyone, as I think this is planned to go to the wire to reach an agreement...

Good luck everyone

Good morning Thrift8082, I think you may have fallen foul of misquoting, I do it myself -
I think we all agree with the lovely sentiment within your post, but -
According to the Oxford dictionary, " Poignant " actually means - evoking a keen sense of sadness or regret, which is totally NOT what you meant to post.. Ha ha, we all know what you mean though, this is not a criticism, just saying, all the best.

Well said Pete, have a good evening..

Will2323, posted a question aimed at the positive holders so that would be me as one of them, his post:-

" The posters who aren't worried at all, how close to the deadline will you start to feel worried if no RNS is released? Maybe it's just because of how I am but to feel no worry at all seems crazy. What happens if we get to 7pm of the 28th?"

The question is why would I be worried - If I was expecting my paycheque on the 29th I would not worry till the 29th had passed, it would not occur to me to worry about something before it was due, after the 29th has passed then yes I would be concerned.

The word worried meaning - "unhappy because you are thinking about problems or unpleasant things that might happen"
- Notice the word MIGHT happen.

The word I would use for my present state of mind is intrigued - "To interest someone a lot, especially by being strange, unusual, or mysterious" I'm more curious than concerned, maybe that is me, I like a good game of Chess, Chess is a game of strategy.
Strategy meaning - "A detailed plan for achieving success in situations such as war, politics, business, industry, or sport, or the skill of planning for such situations"

So, that is me, only Intrigued by the current situation and no more. worried and disappointed come later after the due date!

Just my Black and White opinion currently, and yes of course unhappy that my money is tied up, who wouldn't be, but the prize may be worth it?

And nothing can be done about it so back to the waiting game.
Good luck all.

Hi, Wolster, all anyone can do at the moment is to go over all the passed RNSs to see if you can find something that you dislike,
Me, I have found nothing of importance to make me change my current view that the company is trying to resolve whatever the current situation is, we do not know what the BOD know so are out of the current pictue, we have been told we will be informed via RNS before the 29th of this month, there is currently nothing anyone can do but put trust and faith in the BOD at this time, we are all in the same boat, the positive posters post up theories based on the facts that we have been informed of in the RNS and published company info, the negative posters post up theories based on gut feelings, things that have gone on in similar companies but are not this company so have no direct relevance, and then you have the posters that just like to stir the pot for the sake of it! it is your choice who you trust or believe in, we all only know so much and not the eventual outcome.

Hi, Aubery, not bothered at all, more intrigued... Bob posted up out of the blue that he used to drink there, but he is not a local to the area? that posed a question for one line Bob to answer if he would be so kind...:-)

Morning Stix, The Tarpots pub in on the A13 London Road in Benfleet at the roundabout with Rushbottom Lane / High road.
https://www.benfleethistory.org.uk/content/browse-articles/areas/tarpots-area/the_tarpots_public_house

All the best.

So Bob, you posted "I'm not old,and I don't live in Yorkshire." can you please put us out of our misery and tell us why you used to frequent the Tarpots pub, and if not from Essex, ? it is a simple question, let us make it nice and simple for you with multiple choice answers?

1) were you a traveling salesman?
2) visiting family and friends?
3) Got lost?
4) Did not have a map of the area?
5) Phone a friend?

Come on Bob, it is just a question you can answer it, several more hours to go till you can post up we are all OUT!

Just a friendly question of how or why you used to frequent The Tarpots pub?

Spikeyj, good morning to you, you were also one of the posters RusskyMole took a dislike too I see, back to your nitpicking with my post, as you say I'm very positive on this stock, I only put in those words loosely as I have never in the past applied them to any past post of mine and as you say many other posters keep bringing the subject up and was the reason for their insertion and the reason I bothered to post such words loosely was to imply the 'Dirting' of the Names of the BOD not the actual implication of Litigation, but you knew that anyway, and as usual, just making a point, well done you have made it have a nice day now...

Sorry if anyone has thought that I have anywhere stated anything negative about as you say beautiful Yorkshire, please review my post and you will find I have said nothing at all negative on Yorkshire or Doncaster, the only thing I have stated is if Bob is from that far away from Essex (220 miles) why would he have traveled all the way to Essex to some old pub for a pint?, and made the joke that did Bob have the map the wrong way up? the joke was on Bob NOT Yorkshire or Doncaster,
Gecko picked up on my intention of a joke..

Morning Ryan, my only question regarding old Bob is why if he does indeed live in Yorkshire as Blue has suggested, would he chose to travel about 220 miles to some old pub in Essex for a pint? something does not add up? did Bob have an Essex girlfriend :-)

* Did he HOLD the map upside down*
