The trouble with many businesses is that they are so large that the bureaucracy is overwhelming. They become no different to the public sector. The organisation is so complex that you can hide poor management in every cubby hole. As an example, my sister in law worked in the NHS. She was a specialist with one assistant. Above them were nine levels of management. Two organisations too consider: Scottish Rail and Scottish water.

There is an element of truth about not having the technology. In the late 90s, early 00s, NASA put out a call for any Z80 (8 bit) processors as these were the ancient processors used by the Saturn V rockets and lunar modules. I had some and sent them over.

Until the UK follow the examples of Denmark, Latvia, Poland, Hungary and now Sweden and Germany then it will get worse.

I just woke up from my afternoon old folks nap. Tell this has not been a bad dream. Some one is putting KK and science in the same sentence?

That would explain yesterday's rise.

I believe in the tooth fairy too

Yay, back again :-)

And down she goes

I will agree that a knight in shining armour being just over the horizon is unlikely, but, short of the transaction failing, then JO holding his cash in reserve for when the share price hits 21p is (I hope) equally unlikely.

Many thanks for the clarification

Did the auditors finally sign off the 2024 accounts without adverse comment or is it still to be resolved?

FYI

"Israeli-founded Cyera, a developer of an AI data security platform, announced on Thursday that it has raised $400 million in a funding round led by New York-based alternative asset manager Blackstone that triples its valuation from a year ago to $9 billion."

JO. That is a lie (hehehe). A Ford Focus won't get you from A to B. Trust me, I had one. Pure tat.

If the larger companies are selling , then who is buying ? I hope to be topping up soon to almost double my holding.

A good time to top up TW. then?

NU Holdings and Origin Energy?

Dipped my toe in recently with Trump doing his war dance in South America, I am a little concerned re NU

Given the increase in the share price today , I suspect that the numbers are about to be released either today or tomorrow and will be positive.

Was Aldi or Lidl the force then that they are now? Take that into account then, arguably, Tesco are doing a better job than Sainsbury, Asda etc.

This does my head in :-). There is the metric tonne (not ton) at 1,000kg (2,204 pounds), the American "short ton" at 2,000 pounds and the UK long ton at 2,240 pounds. Thanks for the clarication.

A small clarification. As I understand weights, the US ton is 2,000 pounds and the UK ton is 2,240 pounds. The $13,000 is, presumably, the US ton?
