Gary - most of us are just coming towards the end of our shift now, so we'll hand the reins over to you to continue the diatribe / banter / suggestions for where to buy a decent bottle of wine from.

Wrong. I am a spam eating idiot. Get it right. I'm just venting-off some much needed steam. Ignore me, as most do on here. You can blame our leader for my frustration. I find his lack of communication very discourteous indeed. The radio silence is being drawn out to satisfy their already overladen pockets with more cash as we are left to suffer, swilling cheapish wine and eating battered food. I make no apologies for my grumpiness.

I can categorically confirm that STZ has farted more gas than SOU Energy has discovered in the past two years. That "molecule" that bubbled its way to the surface at Te-10 was about three farts worth and that's all. In fact, I am probably flattering the molecule by comparing it to three farts. The Chuckles are unimpressed with Parsons et al and will stay in our grotty bedsit eating anything battered until we get out money back. Living the dream.

The only clues we have as to the deadline date are in a reply that BM sent to a PI about it being before October 31st, but that could have been a joke pertaining to Brexit. The other one obviously being what was stated in the RNS with the marketing process concluding by the end of this year, which technically means any date from now until December 31st. Somebody the other day made the valid point that it is just the marketing process that is supposedly ending before December 31st. There may be a time after December 31st when the t's need to be crossed and the i's dotted, which could take us into Q1 2020. We are nearing yet another month end in a week-or-so, so we'll just have to see what early September brings. Jacklevi thinks we should hear something next month, which if you think about it makes sense given Brian's comment.

Lumpfish caviar is fine and in all fairness when Lidl can be bothered to stock it, I buy all of what they have. I'd eat it every day if they would only stock it. I do like my vodka too. I know you probably won't approve, but a double vodka, red bull always gets me in the zone, so long as I don't mix my drinks.

Trellis,
We'll all be drinking out of brown paper bags before not too long, so we may as well gouge ourselves on the posh plonk now before we reach for the paint stripper. Bottle of Merlot threequarters gone and now considering a timely trip to Waitrose to check-out their sparkling rose wines. I'll remember to bring along a bottle for Wannabe 5 when I see you.

OK, I will do my next shop in Waitrose then. Hopefully there, I will find some caviar too.

Jobbs,
You should know by now that if my trusty fez twitches then that's a good sign. At the moment, it's creased and the tassels are frayed. I consider myself fairly intuitive and my fez and gut are telling me that Parsons et al are conjuring-up another botched plan behind closed door as I type this message, which involves taking out that finance package with Enigas, planning for another imminent equity raise, planning for JP's departure and no doubt large severance payment and buying themselves yet more time in order to get something that resembles a signed HOA document / GSA.

Trellis,
I discovered a new found penchant for Spanish wines over the weekend. I enjoyed an excellent Grenache. I haven't had a rose for some time, but you have reignited my interest in them. Maybe I'll take a closer look when I'm next scanning the aisles. Waitrose is just out of walking distance, but I have been toying with the idea of gracing them with my presence. It would certainly make a change from my regular jaunts in Lidl, but only because they have some not too bad Greek food in stock at the moment. I just wish they would permanently stock caviar. I have written to their management twice already about stocking caviar, but they refuse to have it in store all year round. Only at Easter and Christmas will they entertain it. Crazy seeing as though they'd practically steal the market if they had it on the shelf all year round.

Jobbs,
Unlike you, my feelings about our chances of a decent LE have almost faded away into nothing, which is a byproduct of my sincere lack of trust for the SOU BOD. That's where you and me differ. I tell it how I see it and you don't want to risk your reputation one bit on rash predictions, which no doubt you believe this is. The vibe I am getting from this so called marketing process is a very bad one. I am not feeling the love here one bit. I don't want to spend another day arguing with you either, so go and bother somebody else. Be prepared to be let down again by Parsons and if he reads these comments, I suspect he already knows he is going to let us down and is just waiting for the deadline date to expire before garnishing us all with another rotten RNS.

I was one of the only ones who wanted us sold before Te-9 and Te-10. I recall getting a load of abuse for it too. Now people can see why I wanted us sold for circa £1 per share. At the time I commented that I didn't trust BM with the drill bit and it turned out I was right. Since then the strategy has been floored. I think even Parsons himself would admit that serious mistakes have been made and in the most part, they could have been easily avoided. Never over promise and under deliver. The timelines have shifted forever forward. What's not to say that they will again with regards to our LE? The one thing that we have left that JP can potentially get right and even that will be messed-up IMHO. You only have to look at the past in order to predict the future here. This company, this BOD has an annoying tendency to perform the exact opposite of what you expect them to do. It's farcical.

Trellis,
The whole strategy has been botched. You only have to look at past videos to see that their so-called strategy has shifted and changed and then swapped again based on the results at the drill bit. In short, Parsons has gambled on their being commercial gas and his job was to keep us mug punters keen. What he didn't count on was there being no or little success and it was hardly ever discussed. In fact, if you look at any of the past videos, there is nobody challenging him at all about the "what if the well is a failure" and "what's our fallback position if x,y,z fails". One exception is at The BB event where that private investor chap with a Liverpudlian accent asked some questions in a direct fashion and didn't really get the answers he was lookin for. The auditoriums were in the most part full of eager disciples clutching on to his every word and too timid really to put him on the spot. The cagey looks from his BOD as they sat there, touching their noses and scanning the audience as they filled their pockets with even more of our hard earned money. You could see the look of disbelief in their eyes at some of the ridiculous predictions were being made. People may think we've heard the last of Tom Winnifrith? He'll be back and next time his words will probably dent a few more egos. This BOD will not be able to secure a credible deal for us. They are going "long" and the more I think of it, the more we are all being strung along in a relationship that we're gagging to exit. JP will slip away hoping that nobody has noticed and he'll leave JJ in charge to pick-up the pieces when the share price is languishing at 4p. It's a complete and utter joke. I don't trust Parsons et al one bit and I have woken up again today still adamant that he won't get the pleasure of shaking my hand again. My offer of farts in a bottle, hand delivered to Sevenoaks still remains should they need a few extra BCF's. I'm off to consult a bottle of Merlot to kickstart the day. I make no apologies for my grumpiness. I feel let down and cheated.

Where did you pluck those figures from, Partridge? Excuse the pun.

Yeah, say hello to my little friend, Shaungreen. Has he purchased that new abacus yet?

Partridge,
I have to confess, I nearly ran over a partridge last Sunday and it made me think of you! 1st September is only days away, so let's hope that you're out of range! Hehe...

Crude? Thanks for your candid reply. Good luck with the top-up. I hope for your sake, it is well timed. Hope the leg is getting better too. As I mentioned, I of course wouldn't expect James to divulge any market sensitive information. I was merely asking you for your personal opinion about our chances of a decent LE. I also appreciate that the definition of a "decent LE" is based on what your share price average is. Let's hope that should we receive a credible offer (not convinced we will) that it will be to the satisfaction of the majority, rather than the minority.

JTF

And I'm not expecting Parsons to divulge market sensitive information to Crudehope. All I was asking Crude for, was his opinion on how he sees things panning-out. Is that a crime?? Crude has yet to give me an answer, which I still find rather bizarre. No offence, Kirk. You know I like you but silence can sometimes speak volumes. I may need to ask our Chief Alcohol Officer, Trellis, to pour you a bottle or several of our finest Shiraz. It works as a wonderful truth serum. You are Chuckle Energy's Head of Positivity and so all I am wanting is a bit of reassurance and positive words to calm my nerves. If not, then I will have to drink myself into oblivion and compare wine recipes with Trellis.

Jobbs,
"A fragile, human princess." How many non human, fragile princess's do you know?! That's a very sexist comment and you should apologise to the female investors on this bb. It just goes to highlight the sort of numpty that you really are. It's your way or the highway isn't it? If anybody has a different view to yours, you mock them. You won't be the first and you won't be the last. I don't trust Parsons et al ok? You only have to look at past videos of the incessant hyping to see that their strategy has been botched. It's actually painful watching the videos from 2+ years ago now because you can see how crazy their predictions were / are. He claims to have 1TCF under his belt, but I don't think we even have 500 BCF under our belt at the moment. More like 392 BCF if my memory serves me right. All I have tried to say today without picking a fight with anyone (as you have) is that something stinks and it ain't the mouldy spam fritter behind the sofa that STZ placed when we were playing hide and seek last year. I have my opinion and you have yours and quite frankly your comments are tosh.

JTF

Dunno how we finished up over 10% after all this chat on here today! Doom and gloom obviously works.

Sill waiting to hear what Crudehope thinks about our chances of a successful LE. I never did get an answer from you, Kirk? It worries me that you don't have an answer given your relationship with Parsons. I have put my neck on the line.....again and predicted we will probably have to "go long" but you haven't provided us with your prediction. Even Jobbs finally managed to give us his prediction after being asked countless times by me.

Hi Crude,
Glad to hear you're still with us. I thought you'd be swinging through the streets of New York fighting crime by now, after having been bitten by that radioactive spider you encountered on some exotic cruise. May I suggest you take-up wine drinking as Trellis has? You will find that it is a suitable antidote to most ailments as you'll be pickling yourself.
I don't know what you think about our chances of a decent LE? You quoted a reply from JP, but we'd like to hear your opinion please? I believe we will be forced to "go long" due to not receiving and credible bid. You only have to watch the video that somebody posted the link to on here today to see how botched this whole strategy has been. I think the Financial Decision that will take place later this year, is that we will be going for "first gas" and with that more funding required, yet more time (a couple more years) and a change around with the BOD. That is why they are continuing to work on a GSA and the planning needed for the pipeline.

What was mentioned at The Gherkin is indelibly etched on to our minds - those that attended and those that recall watching the video before it was taken down. I suspect that someone somewhere has a copy of it.
