First, I pay attention to, and value, your contributions on this and some other shares.
Second, if I owned a leg of a horse, I would consider myself an investor. If I put money on it winning occasionally, while having no influence on performance, I would consider that gambling. The latter reflects my relationship with JOG and other shares: I have no real interest in what becomes of them other than how it affects my "investment"! I would be happy enough for them to go belly up if I had switched from long to short in time. Others may have a more loving relationship with them but I think they are few enough.
Third, Britain great or otherwise does not bring me out in a nostalgic rash. I'm not a British citizen although as a youth I dug holes underneath 6 of your cities and my father saw out his teens as a colonial British citizen. He wasn't nostalgic either: they jailed his father and uncle!!
Finally, I can't afford to "gamble" and lose hundreds of thousands so I'm probably in a different league to many here, although I'm better off than the majority out there who actually produce something for the wages they're paid and pay more taxes than you and I do on them.
I think we should have the grace to recognise that for 40 years now the world has been run for the benefit of holders and manipulators of assets and at least not punch down on those who have few or none.
Apart from that, I didn't mean to give offence and wish you all the best!

I gamble (I can't say invest) in JOG and a few dozen other energy shares, so I'm not claiming any moral superiority on the climate-change question (although I agree with Greta) but does there have to be so many raving right-wing loonies ranting at the moon who also own these shares?
Is it not possible to just own and try to make money on them without having to peddle these uber-Trumpian rants?

"RE: Hold TightToday 10:29
No hit, drop like a brick!"

How is that "telling it like it is"?
Looks more like an evidence-free prediction (or hope?)!

Curious, and others who have identified outstanding land issues arising from the alleged Soum decision:
I take your reservations as in good faith but unless the RNS below is lying I can't see where an obstruction remains re land access and/or use (mind, I don't have much faith in companies which dismiss objectors as "a vocal minority").

"In late April, the Cabinet of the Mongolian Government issued a resolution directing the certification of exploration and exploitation licences by the central Land Agency such that local approvals on land use are not required. We are advised by industry regulator, the Mineral Resources and Petroleum Authority of Mongolia (MRPAM), that this will allow work on all Production Sharing Contracts (PSCs) areas to progress without land access delays whilst the planned amendments to the land law that will remove the current legal ambiguities pass through parliament. "

Re Mongolia reducing dependence on Russian oil:
I don't have any particular insight into Mongolia's position on this but I do know that the hyper interest in Ukraine is largely confined to the EU and the Anglo sphere: in essence, the 18 C empires and their (white) colonies.
Africa, Asia, the M-E and S America tend to the view: we've had/are having lots of wars and atrocities, most of which you've caused or contributed to, so we're not going to get over excited (and pay a price!) for a war that's distant from us just because they're pale-skinned blondes like you.

1) Sense
A compelling refutation of the Simpleton, and politely too!

2) I've heard enough of Simple in one day to outlast my investment here; he has now turned to green.
I would recommend that to others also or at least ignore him for a while. He has already messed up this board which had just got back to normal.

Would this be schadenfreude or just sour grapes? Anyway, I love it!

Me too ;-)

Why do people here never get excited about Yemen, Palestine, Uighur/China etc?
We're already getting saturated media coverage of Ukraine with a single perspective, could we have some escape here please?

BTW
I have a strong pecuniary interest in Barryroe being developed asap (Pvr, Logp and SLE) but I have no illusions that it is not selfish and I don't think people like Ryan are either mad (granted, he's a bit dotty!) or out to destroy the economy and country.
Otherwise we've a mutual interest, and although I originally bought in the high teens (possibly even punts, mad as that seems), I still have hope that I'll get some/most of it back!

PS
What exactly is "not true"?

PS200
Do you not consider it relevant that, with or without Ryan, you are spewing out more carbon than the average Chinese?
And that you have been doing so for centuries, thus enabling the accelerated industrial development which allowed you to colonise and exploit the resources and labour of most of the world, including China.
Why should the average Chinese who produces less carbon than you right now, hamper its industrial development so that you can retain your privilege?
PS being irish is no excuse; you piggybacked on the industrialisation and imperialism of your near neighbour and in more recent times of your T/A relation.

Thanks Hud!

Not I!!
(Answering myself).

Surely Anderson can't buy if there's news coming anytime soon?

Strange price movement here recently compared to PVR. Moving towards 1/3rd the price, whereas for a long time it was at 1/5th!

Manya
Upset? :-)))))))))))))))))

Has anybody who opted to accept the 42p received payment yet?

1) Fwiw, my father farmed 50 acres backing on to the ox mountains (from which we cut our own turf, and a long way from the much softer types that farmed the golden vale) and saw 7 of 8 children go through 3rd level from the 50's! I'd swear I did more manual work between age 7 and 25 than you will do in your life. I live on a piece of that farm, now farmed by a grand nephew as part of a bigger operation.
2) You wrote "On average, one farm worker gets killed every 21 days. I wrote that in 2021, the figure was every 41 days and that this was a 50% reduction on the previous year (conceivably claimable by an idiot as due to green policies!).
You have probably noticed that it was your accident fatality figure rather than your suicide claim that I corrected but instead of an apology I would prefer that you don't hit "Post" the next time you feel a political diatribe coming on!
That's the end of my participation in the discussion!
