Member Info for Ian_

The late Joan Sims, the Laindon station master's daughter born 9 May 1930, The Sims family were well known in Laindon in the 1930s and friends of my grandparents in Laindon.

My mother was born in 1924 and so older than Joan, but because my mother's parents were friendly with the Sim's family Joan and her parents were at my parent's wedding in 1947, and a young Joan Sims is in the wedding photo.

Later on, my widowed grandmother and the also widowed Mrs. Sims went on holiday in 1960 to Switzerland, and I have a photo of Grandma, and Mrs. Sims, sitting at a table outside a Swiss cottage along with Joan Sims.

Joan must have wanted to treat her mum to a nice holiday, and grandma went too!

My first encounter at meeting Joan was back in about 1967, I was walking along Soutchurch Boulevard with my parents when we walked past this open-topped parked sports car, we had only just gone past when this shout-out came! 'Bob' we all turned round to see a lady wearing a scarf over her head and dark glasses, Bob was my dad's name! we walked closer to the car, still none the wiser as to who this lady was?

She removed her glasses and exclaimed! it's me, Joan!

We were soon all up to speed and probably not seen each other for eight years! I had never seen Joan in real life at all, but instantly recognised the lady for being on the TV the previous evening in something?

Turned out, Joan had bought her mother a lovely house along Southchurch Boulevard and was visiting for the day and waiting for her mum to get in the car to go out.

This all changed and we went inside for a cup of tea and cake, along with all the grown-ups reminiscing where all the years had gone!

I would have been 10/11 at the time.

Just reminiscing!

The mention of 'Carry on films' brought those memories of that day back for me.

Oh, good the share price has gone up in the meantime :-)

GLA

Afternoon, Hotshot69, dealer55, and Ricardo2019, thanks for your version of events after having the Oxford jab!

So far, no effects for me, but only been 5 hours. will update if anything changes, cheers

A funny old world we live in! .....

Good morning all

Will today be the day?

Yesterday was good news for any investors that have not been able to shelter ALL of their EUA shares from CGT TAX, as it's not going up this year! thank you Rishi Sunak.

Yesterday, more shorts closed out on this stock!

Yesterday, Philip Taylor added to his pile of shares, remember when he bought those original 29,000,000 they were as cheap as chips!

He had to sell some due to upcoming prospective house purchases, that unfortunately, fell through at the last minute!

Missing his original massive holding number, he has been buying back those he sold, but he is not made of money although his EUA shareholding is worth millions, to buy the shares back he once owned is now costing him dear, and he has to sell other investments to fund this ongoing theme!

In case you have not worked out, Philip Taylor still has more to buy to get back to 29,000,000 ground zero, so expect more purchases from him any time soon as and when his funds permit!

Any stock Philip buys is good for us, so well done Philip Taylor.

Today is Thursday, an RNS favored day for EUA to release these lovely things, will we get one today :-)

Today's hopefuls are:-

Good luck everyone!

Here's hoping for a blue day at least!

I Will be AWOL from 08:30 as I have my first COVID jab at 9 am today.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Well, now I'm back!

Thanks to JT Macks and all the other well-wishers that wished me luck this morning!

It was very efficiently done in under 5 min, I received the A ... Z...... one!

Lovely to see the share price blue from the off!

Good luck all

With Thanks, Ian.

Evening all,

A good budget, considering, and no increase in CGT will be very helpful to some here, including me! :-)

Today's only hopeful was:-

----------
S1mms - 03/03/21

Bad luck, no major RNS today.

We have 12 hopefuls for tomorrow, so who knows!

We nearly ended the day blue, only to be taken away at the last minute!

Games are currently being played with the share price but it will matter not in a sale situation where it will rerate instantly!

Roll on 7 am tomorrow, good night all, sleep well!

Good morning all

I'm nice and early today :-)

Today's only hopeful is:-

Good luck!

If you have a coffee in hand and time on your hands, have a look at 'The South Sea Company' founded in January 1711 -

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_Sea_Company

Later, to be known as the 'South Sea Bubble' I knew the rough outline, but not the particulars!

A British company that was based in Threadneedle Street, in the city of London.

At the time of these events, the Bank of England was also a private company dealing in national debt, and the crash of its rival confirmed its position as banker to the British government.

Corruption and even short-selling thought to have taken place!

A bit of history from long ago often highlighted.

Nothing at all to do with EUA, just light reading till 7 am.

Good luck everyone, can this stock turn blue today, ..... Here's hoping!

Cheers

Good evening all,

late this morning and late this evening, at least I'm consistent :-)

Disappointing day today, never mind!

Bad luck, was not to be....

Have a good evening, cheers.

Oh, I have missed a lot then, I did not know that, learned something new! I was only joking when I posted that up as I know he was a man and thought that Banjammith was incorrect.

I stand corrected, no offense meant!

Alex is a great researcher, no question!

Has A1ex had a sex change?

Morning Sharpeye,

Think you will find the rest of the UK are in another time zone to you as Budget day is Wednesday the 3rd of March :-)

Good luck...

Good morning, and apologies for posting this up late!

Lovely to see some blue rise today!

Bad luck everyone! no major RNS today, and not even a blue finish, on a day that the FTSE 100 Index ends up 105 points!

No logic there at all, as the in-ground value grows daily, and institutions and investors increase their holdings, we end the day down? oh well, always tomorrow.....

French, former president, Nicolas Sarkozy, found guilty of corruption and sentenced to prison for three years! How the mighty have fallen, trying to bribe a judge is never a good idea!

Here's hoping the Duke of Edinburgh pulls through, he has been taken to St Barts Hospital for a heart condition! at 99 so close to the magic 100!

Have a good evening everyone, signing off now and catch you all tommorow, cheers.

Morning Tony, yes you were the first to guess at the 12th March and are down, I have been cutting down on replying to save clogging the board that's all.

Good luck, cheers.

Good luck everyone!

The share price is very undervalued for what the company has buried in the ground!

We, having done our homework and researched EUA fully can see that!

The current problem with the low share price that is slowly rerating is the 'perceived risk' vers reward!

You and I see this as a low-risk investment, with a massive upside!

Unfortunately, not everyone can see the wood for the trees!

This company will rerate to the full value on the day of a sale, and not before!

Enjoy the ride.

Good luck everyone for a lovely blue day and a continuing rise North.

Afternoon, Stix,

It certainly is lovely out looking through the window, will love to get out and be able to go places again!

I hope you and your wife have fully recovered after having caught covid?

Take care, young sir,

All the best
Ian

Good Afternoon,

You really are a lovely bunch of kind-hearted and caring fellow EUA investors to post such kind comments when some of you have gone through similar chronic diseases.

Franny1968, (neighbour, of Leigh on sea) so sorry to hear of your wife's plight, and we wish her all the luck in the world for a good, and positive outcome, and that goes for anyone similarly afflicted, we do care for our fellow brethren on this EUA chat board because we have mostly been here so long we have got to know one another, albeit, from a distance!

We even want to meet up and congratulate one another when this share finally plays out! due to the pleasant comradery we have shared along the way! and showing care towards our sick fellow investors in their time of need if they have shared in the good fight with the negative posters along the way is a normal feeling!

Money is not everything, but if we make some, and a few friends along the way, what's not to like!

Just saying, thank you everyone, you all hold a special place in my heart!

Yes, perhaps men don't normally discuss heath issues, but once you are thrown together in the oncology department and you see the same people with similar problems every day, you do start to chat, and you soon find it helps to talk, you are not alone and it gives you strength in numbers.

When anyone finishes their Radiotherapy course of treatment at the hospital, there is this big brass bell on the wall and you get to ring it, and then everyone in the waiting area whoops and claps and wishes you well!

It is a lovely sunny day out there today and it should lift everyone's spirit up, hopefully, soon we will be able to go out and meet up with friends and acquaintances after being vaccinated and Boris gives us the ok, get my jab next Thursday at 9 am.

Very sad, The Gleneagles guest house we used to go to to meet up on a Thursday for breakfast was in the Evening Echo and may go bust before the lockdown is lifted, very sad for the husband and wife proprietors that put their life and soul into building up the small business. They get £2000 a month from the government, but it does not pay the mortgage and bills!

Good luck everyone, this stock is getting more and more undervalued each day with the rise in the value of the minable PGM's, and let's not forget that lovely Rhodium that is on a tear!

The FSP must be close to a conclusion by now in anyone's mind and the price paid per share literally anyone's guess!

But, with the time this has taken and the inground value continually rising, I do think we might actually be very pleasantly surprised and this may well exceed our more mid-range valuations :-)

Enjoy the rest of the weekend everyone and here's to next week and hopefully a rise back into the 30s!

It has been a very pleasant bot-free few days on here lately, long may it continue!

Take care and stay safe everyone,

Kindest regards

Ian

Thanks Gecko and Trift,

Have a great weekend, cheers.

Mac, your guestimate has been updated to £1.57 :-)

Thank you Mac, and you have a good weekend too, cheers.

Thanks Ohmni,

I do take 2000mg vitamin C a day, but have not heard of 'apotosis' so will look it up, thanks for the heads up, cheers.

Evening Colin,

So sorry to hear that and I wish you the very best that you can fully recover asap, do they give you radiotherapy? to clear it up after, I had 6 weeks of it having to hold a full bladder each time in the machine.

Take care mate, this must have come straight out of the blue for you! fingers crossed we both do well going forward.

None of us are getting any younger and I believe you are about 67/68?

From the bottom of my heart, I wish you all the best, take care Colin and stay strong, you are one of us longer-term posters on here.

Kindest regards

Ian
