Member Info for JET47

BoxOfFrogs, thanks for the info:) I don't like trading halts and no information - now I have to worry till Friday. Rockfire are moving up at the mo. Breccia, breccia, breccia, off to brecky of my own.

Strewth Ruprah, you wanna tell the rellies, 'it belonga Ruprah' :)

Russia - beyond my risk limit. I'm happy with Australia and Scotland.

'Men and machine'. (Master Tunnelling brochure) Men in uniforms? They're not exactly Chippendales, are they? Look at their little embarrassed faces and body language. I'd have hired actors. BUT - the MTBS? Uuuuuuugh, drooooool. I'd love to drive that - especially if I could find gold with it. Or, to be fair, diamonds, platinum...

Correction: '... underneath, from eBay'.

And really? Ear wax versus possible emergency?

Upomega, if you want to carry out ear irrigation of wax at home, buy an ear wax removal kit for flushing warm water through the ear and catching it underneath from eBay, £24.04. That's all the nurse will do, flush warm water through the ear.

In case any of you fancy a break from watching the gold price, you could pop into this conference over the next two days, over the 10th and 11th, and there are different time zones. Dr Fauci, White House, is speaking - Mary Robinson, Dr Jane Goodall, etc ending with Bill Gates and Antonio Guterres, UN Sec-Gen.
If interested, register before the conference https://covid19.aids2020.org/

Not so sure about gold, but with oil exploration, companies tend to advertise externally for expats. The pool of people who fit the cv is quite small. The more specific or higher up the post, the more the company will have a specific person in mind - usually someone known to them. To avoid 'unpleasantness' they make the preferred person aware of the vacancy (usually lunch off-site) and 'suggest' they apply for it. In oil, they need not to be seen 'poaching'.

Anyone popping into this over the next two days? 10th and 11th and there are different time zones. Dr Fauci, White House, is speaking - Mary Robinson, Dr Jane Goodall, etc ending with Bill Gates and Antonio Guterres, UN Sec-Gen.

It starts tomorrow morning.

Back on topic. 12.75. Yaaay.

Farquar, You say IV is much more stable nowadays but isn't it the case that Ouattara is standing for an (illegal/unprecedented) third term as President while issuing a warrant for an opposition leader (who also may have a dubious background) and clamping down on free speech? I fear for your investment. Please keep a close eye on IV this year. ALB

PaddyGall - 925%? - isn't that lovely :))))))))))

I did my final top ups this morning and now I am going off to ponder breakfast and why Schlemiel was up and posting at 05.29 am, LOL.

I wouldn't invest in HUM or IRR because of their political location - too much risk.

UpUp, if you are in IRR, have you seen there's an RNS today?

PS: As always, I would imagine that our scientists are getting it right.

Morning All, I read 4.2. The problem with this Merck drug is that it may induce tachyphylaxis. It's like steroids - the more frequent/higher dose a patient takes, the less effective it may become. And after reading 4.8 - well, lowering the white blood cell count which places patients at greater risk of infection? I can only say that if a patient is dying from Covid-19 I don't suppose they have a choice, in the absence of anything else that works. NB: I haven't read the rest of the report but I would say the EU's desperate.

Sharehunter3, C19 is definitely airborne. It's just a question of how far it travels. The NHS knows it's an airborne transmittable contagious virus. They're using negative pressure rooms for patients.

I'm here but I'm mostly in GGP watching my gold go up.

Troublesome, as far as I'm concerned, WHO are playing catch up. I always thought the dangers of transmission by air were obvious, so to ask people to shield and self-isolate in lock-down, and then to go out onto their front doorsteps, all together, to clap, (an action which disperses air), in wind, and breeze, and close-proximity in some streets, was outright stupid. A neighbour two doors up from us had Covid19. He was out in his garden, coughing incessantly, and my family retreated in from our garden. He's ok now but he was marched into the ambulance by fully kitted-out medics. Our garden is lower than our neighbour's and we have the sea and a park at the top of the road, so the wind comes down from the top of the road (from his garden). If you can smell a neighbour's barbecue, what else are you breathing in? We need a vaccine, that's all there is to it, I'm afraid, and the sooner the better.
