Cyprus?, not so straightforward it would appear.

Search , 'How to escape IHT, move to Cyprus?'

'Moving to Cyprus can entirely eliminate your Inheritance Tax (IHT) exposure on your worldwide estate, but you cannot escape it immediately. Under the UK’s residence-based tax framework, you face a "10-year tail," meaning you must remain a non-UK resident for 10 consecutive tax years before your worldwide assets are completely safe from the UK's 40% IHT. Furthermore, any physical assets remaining in the UK will always be subject to UK IHT'

Quicker to wait for Labour to get thrown out :O)

Am sure Reform or Restore ,promised to abolish IHT.

Hi Ponie,

Re: 'miss sold car insurance claim as the claim form touted from all the legal profession on line does not include provision for a landline number to be entered (only a mobile)'

No sure exactly what you mean by a 'miss sold car insurance claim '

Have you checked out the insurance company on Trustpilot, is it trustworthy?

Maybe seek help and advice from Age UK?

Can't you e-mail or phone them instead?

Good Luck!

Hi Poni,

Re " Is there simply not enough GGP shares to go around for large institutions (particularly American ones who have been encouraged) to buy in? "

Who knows really eh?

Simple solution, put the price up. if the USA instutions really want in and want some then they'll pay for them surely?

Can see, I'll be holding for quite a while yet, before I sell a few :O)

Re: Trading a few and hoping to buy back more?, doesn't or hasn't always worked for me lately.

It's almost as if the platform that you belong to have now started to take note? ie You sell 250 shares and have enough cash to buy back 265.

However, when you put your order in to the market, it just dissapears and gets nullified no takers.

Anyone else notice that?

So you think will do a Fill or Kill order, again no joy.

What therefore is really going on?

I think we PI's , are now unfortunately at the bottom of the purchasing pile and will have to wait until the instutions have had their fill sadly.

Luckily, I still hold most of my shares and refuse to be taken for a ride by the Spivs playing with my head. :O)

Poland Leads Global Gold Buying in 2026

Agree mark, "You don't want to be doing that" they'd say, but I bet they will be the first to admit how nice it will be to receive a nice fat juicy dividend :O

Reminds me of Harry Enfield.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DIhKuKodyMQ

It always amazes me why we get such ludicrous POG predictions lately don't you think?

For one if Gold ever reached such dizzy heights, and I'm not saying it will, what does that suggest will be taking place within the wider economy?.

ie the money in your bank account will now be worthless ?

You now trot down to Tesco's to pay for your groceries in gold dust??

Don't think so do you?

Firstmodern,

I sent them an e-mail this morning about no RNS or so I thought. The RNS was there but no Red Dot! it certainly fooled me.

Had a feeling something like this might happen, so sold a very small number today.

Never mind, can always buy them back cheaper tomorrow maybe?

Thing is , we PI's are not alone anymore the big II's are also looking for a bargain.

Ricardo, Re: 'My wife really wants a new kitchen. What I really want is a round number of shares. Already in deep so don't want to spend more cash, but I could be tempted to reinvest any dividend if it gets me the round number of shares I have in mind. Is this the first step to madness?'

Well, the first step to madness , is when you've already recognised a large 'Paper Only Profit' and then become overly excited at what the future holds in anticipation of OC special dividends et al. Then, given your age maybe? you suddenly realise that now is the time to make Hay?

I reckon there are quite a few of potential Haymakers out there now quitely cashing in a few of their golden chips ! but at the same time are saying oh! just a few more shares then, where does it all end?:O)

@ Jack 10

Here you go, enjoy.

Moon, to be a serious investor, you need to stay off the crack all day. capiche? :O)

I think it's fair to say, that whatever way you look at the market for Tungsten right now, GGP are curently in a very enviable position.

I'm quite happy to leave everything to Shaun and the BOD's as to what they decide to do that is in the best interest of all shareholders.

Monetization, might come in 6 months, 12 months or even longer?.

Who knows, but I do believe we will know one way or the other, before Xmas 26 on what they are intending to do with this fabulous asset! all in my opinion of course.

Interesting comment, 'but wow flying is going to be disrupted a whole. ' one would naturally think so.............But Aviation fuel is finding it's way into the UK via guess who? . DJT et all , USA.

Was having lunch with my son this afternoon and he works for Jet2, so far no major major UK shortages.

Sorry to hear that Fatboy01,

Same for me, lost a few K on SXX as did many other folk, and other shares, HUR in particular.

GGP however, is on an entirely different plain, we have really struck Gold this time, takes a while before it really sinks in.

All you can do to reassure yourself ,is look at who is actually investing in GGP?, how much free cashflow is actually being generated?

How much cash is in the bank? et al.

Very comfortable right now. despite all that is going on around us.

We are in good hands, SD is an excellent MD.

Good luck to us all!

Good Luck to you Fatboy01, and why not you've earned it, with your decision to stay invested.

Can't wait for a decision by GGP which may well be sometime yet on O'Callaghans , but nonetheless I do believe , this will prove to be very profitable for those share holders whom hold their shares., ie Special Dividend anyone?

Nothing of course is ever written in stone, but I bet you quite a few of the larger institutional holders in GGP are already sniffing around this.

JD, Re:Jiffy. “According The Prof...etc, etc, at Droverman etc,” your now becoming somewhat of a very, very ,worn out record haven’t we seen this approach before????

Yes, I refer of course to one of the most distinguished posters on this BB, no other than TMT! Where he calls you out 15/04/26 @ 06:55

.

“LOL”. JD just outed himself as ProfessorStax!.

"No...I was responding to this from Droverman and the conversation eveloved..." etc, etc see TMT’s post 15/04/26 @ 06:55

Just to clarify you Banker!

Key Aspects of the New Regime (Effective July 13, 2026):

Anonymity: The FCA will publish "Aggregated Net Short Positions" (ANSPs) for each issuer, concealing the identity of the individual firms or investors.

Thresholds: While public disclosure is now anonymized, the threshold for privately reporting a position to the FCA remains 0.2% of a company's total issued share capital.

Aggregation: The FCA will combine all individual positions reported at or above 0.2% into a single total percentage per company.

Reporting Deadline: Firms will have more time to report, with the deadline extended to 23:59 on T+1 (the working day following the day the position was taken).

Reasons for the Change:

The FCA stated that this shift aims to reduce the administrative burden on firms, encourage market efficiency, and align with global standards, such as in the US. The previous regime, which required naming investors with positions of 0.5% or more, was seen as a barrier that discouraged short selling due to fears of "copycat" trades, "short squeezes," or retaliation from the companies being shorted.

Important Distinctions:

Private vs. Public: Short sellers must still report their identity to the FCA privately at the 0.2% threshold.

Sovereign Debt: Short selling activity in UK sovereign debt and associated CDS is now excluded from the scope of these reporting requirements.

Market Makers: Rules for market makers are also being streamlined, reducing the notification period for exemptions from 30 to 15 days.

These reforms, part of the post-Brexit repeal of EU laws, officially commence on July 13, 2026.

Love that song , oh turn up the volume!

Yes indeed what a success story!!.

I often wonder what Sandeep Biswas is thinking right now?, I bet he's kicking himself for not being so proactive as SD has been in relation to further exploring Telfer through the drill bit etc.

Makes you wonder why on Earth Newcrest didn't do the same as Shaun has and is doing now?

Anyway ,that's all water under the bridge for now and it's a good thing Shaun was able to change the outcome so dramatically in favour of Greatland Resources shareholders as he ha done.

For that, I am truly thankfull
