It's all very well being paid a salary, but you have to earn it. If a cleaner does a good job and leaves a room clean then he / she has earnt their salary. If a footballer scores goals and makes his or her team win games and gain promotion then their salary has been earnt. If you deliver duster after duster and mess PI's around then it's fair to say you haven't earnt your salary as best you could have.

Trellis? I just hope for your sake that you make it out of the hospital intact and far away from Nurse Kevin's wandering hands. I'm sure there'll be a few rogue bottles of Liebfraumilch in the fridge awaiting your arrival, perhaps with a goodbye note from number 5.

You'll all be drinking baby cham out of brown paper bags, sat on park benches in 12-18 months time.

Very funny, Partridge. Got a chuckle out of a Chuckle Brother!

400m that way.....no that way....no over there...….turn right at the next sand dune and then hanger left at the next, roll down to the bottom of the third and then walk a hundred paces and you'll be just about there I reckon.

Hope that has cleared that one up?

Some of you remember all the times I messed up but are slow to recall all of the times I have been right. Partridge? It was weeks and weeks ago, mate that I suggested the CT hadn't arrived to site.

What has been worrying for me is just how slow JP has been in letting we PI's know about the status of the CT. I'd rather know what's going on than not knowing at all and having my expectations mismanaged.

I believe part of the design of the CT was bespoke and has never been tested before and so maybe that was why it has taken so long to deploy to site. BM will need to clarify if there is any truth in that though.

I am also one of those who doesn't think that this delay has been anything to do with purposely slowing things down in order to fulfil a strategic decision. I don't think it has even been down to any incompetence on behalf of the BOD either. Put it down to good old fashion logistical problems / custom delays / wanting to make sure that the design of the CT was sufficient enough for the job etc.

Yes, the delay has been incredibly frustrating for many and for others not so. However, at least we now know the CT has arrived on site and they can get on with the job in hand and hopefully find us all some gas. GLA.

Halleluiah, the coiled tubing has finally arrived. Was it accidentally sent via Fiji before it ended up in Morocco?

To think that all of those weeks ago when I stuck my neck out and suggested that the coiled tubing hadn't arrived on site and then subsequently getting shot down on this bb for my comments.

I like many others have been asking for a simple message from the BOD, even in the form of a tweet, confirming that the CT had arrived on site and finally.....finally this morning it seems they have listened to the weekend's rants and done something about it. I can't help but say how embarrassingly long the delay in the CT arriving to site has taken and my brother is right: meanwhile the BOD have been paying themselves thousands of pounds in salaries. I think they should donate that money to charity or better still, to the Chuckle Brothers LE Party.

So, realistically it's not going to be until towards the end of May that we hear anything regarding the results and that's only if they decide to RNS the unstimulated results. If they hold out until releasing the stimulated results, we could be looking well into June? Either way, looks like more patience and waiting around is required.

Ah well, back to the spam fritters...…

Crude,

I for a very long time have been saying that I believe the eventual buyer will be the state and this asset will fall under state control. I say this because we know how important this domestic energy is for the country of Morocco and I for one don't believe that the King wants to entertain having some other company owning it. I also foresee SLB staying on as operators working hand in hand with OGIF.

So, you / we could well be right...….IMHO.

Jizzy

Trellis,

4 weddings? Next come a funeral according to the famous film.

Glad to see the mighty Norwich get promotion yesterday, My late, dear friend and music teacher would have loved every minute of it being an avid Canaries fan.

I used to look after Norfolk Libraries and indeed Suffolk Libraries in a previous job role before retiring.

If you ever get married again then let us know and we can join your stag do. Not sure if wannabe number 5 is still with you though after the debacle with Nurse Gladys?!

JTF

Or JP's bonus.

Jack - most people don't think we will ever go on to drill a Te-11. So what are they going to do with all that extra money? Answers on a postcard please.

Lelo,

AIM is fickle at best. It forgets very quickly if you go from zero to hero. As long as you are keeping the masses happy and spam on their table for at least the next fortnight, nobody really gives a damn.

We can only but judge a CEO on his or her results at the end of the day. JP is a decent chap but he hasn't made it very easy on himself now that we find ourselves where we are. Too much hype and not enough success at the drill bit unfortunately. Only a stonking Te-10 will be acceptable......or eventual success at Te-11 if 10 fails, but be prepared for at least one fund raise should we move onto 11.

Picture the scene....

A Pair of disgruntle Chuckle Brothers sat either side of Trellis on some random Norfolk park bench, swigging Blue Nun and swearing at the passers by as they eat their chips.

STZ asking Trellis: 'What the hell went wrong, Rich?
Trellis saying: "I don't know, Simon but I am more concerned about Wannabe 6 in case she finds out about my latest advances on Nurse Gladys.
JTF: Shut up you two.....who's go is it to get the booze in?

What would you do if you were paying yourself as much as JP is? You would probably drag things on as long as you can get away with. Just a few months salary would see you step into a brand new Aston Martin and / or put your kids through private education for several years at a top school. No, I'm not surprised he is not feeling rushed and is apparently concentrating all of his efforts on the "outcome".

This is now become a gamble and he will be the biggest hero on AIM or the biggest.....don't want to say the word, but you can probably imagine what it is?! I have some sympathy for JP as he is only as good as his results and as of late they have been very poor - mainly caused by poor decisions and choices being made by BM and SLB in my opinion. To an extent, JP has been made to look like bit of a clown by them and it couldn't have been an easy 12 months for him regarding feelgood factor.

However, if all else fails, he has still made a very, very tidy sum out of his SOU venture and I dare say he won't be all that displeased other than having his reputation slightly tarnished. At the end of the day, he will still wake-up a multi millionaire and his trusted disciples will follow him whatever the outcome in his next venture, whatever that may be. Most of us will be waking-up on park benches or in bedsits above chip shops wondering what exactly went wrong.

So what's it going to be, ladies and gents? Heads or tails? I'd say heads...…..in the Medieval sense of the phrase!

JTF

Most other investors have sparred with me. I'm quite well known across the boards these days. All harmless banter of course.

Trellis,

Have you got a date for when you will be released from hospital?
Hopefully all of the operations went as well as they could have done for you and that Vanessa hasn't drunk all of your best bottles.

Jizzy

People are now just awaiting the results - good or bad. The market will react based on the news that comes in and I believe that if the results are positive we'll be back on our way up to 40p-50p and if bad we will all be looking at a single digit share price.

My thoughts in response to these recent posts......

I wouldn't be surprised if the coil tubing is still being deployed to site. I agree that it is now causing so much frustration for many that JP needs to reassure us that it HAS arrived and they are progressing with the testing. A simple tweet would suffice e.g. "Coiled Tubing arrived and in place. Testing ongoing and will update the market soon."

I am not expecting the unstimulated results to be RNS'd unless they are deemed to be good enough but I guess that depends on what the NOMAD advises. I wholeheartedly agree that if they were commercial then JP would not hold that news back and would want to shout it from the roof tops.

I am not expecting the unstimulated results to be commercial and agree that they may only become commercial once the post stimulation results have come in, which I suspect will be late May / early June.

Chuckle Gas plc, the downmarket, downstream, onshore Cypriot methane extraction company are ECSTATIC to announce that the upcoming Sound Energy AGM will now be hosted at the Chuckle Gas HQ. We are also DELIGHTED to welcome Sounder to the board of Chuckle as Chief Batterer. JezTheFez CEO and Chairman of Chuckle commented, "This is an exciting time for Chuckle Gas as we enter our final phase of developments. As we await the results of our second and final well, STZ-2 we have plenty of spare time on our hands to eat fried food. I have therefore decided to appoint Sounder who being Glaswegian will know how to cook us plenty of deep fried treats. We do however advise that deep fried Mars Bars aren't really our thing and have replaced them with Deep Fried Haribos as a token of respect for James Parsons of SOU."

Ponkey - I'm in this until the end like most on here are. We're either going to be rich(er) or poor(er) and I guess we can at least agree on that point.

Yes, you probably want to remain "clenched" if you stay at the Chuckle household. STZ is also rather partial to a bit of spooning.
