Am now calm, disappointed and slightly disillusioned but still holding firm at this point.

You say "if you invest in projects like this and expect all to go smoothly without the odd little porky white lie or misleading info I’m afraid your dilutionall it’s called risk it’s not the end of the world"

Your'e right it's not the end of the world or the end of the company, maybe you'e right and as shareholders we should expect "little porky white lies" and "misleading info", I just thought that this BOD were different, perhaps I thought that after over 5 years of being loyal to this company along with many other LTH that we deserved to be treated better than we have been recently.

"CF is no mug and doing a great job" I can't really agree with that statement at this point, guess the recent 40 % drop in sp is colouring my view maybe but watching gains that take months if not years to build up evaporate within a few hours does tend to make you take a step back and re access your investment in the company.

Thats what Iv'e been doing and have decided to keep holding but may possibly sell a percentage of holding if we ever get back to 35p predicated on the premise that no doubt the sp will drop back under 30p most probably 2-4 weeks later for no real reason, will buy back in then and hopefully gain a few shares as too many times have been convinced that the sp won't drop below 35p ever again or 30p ever again and what do you know somehow it always seems to ultimately drop even further than you could have ever envisaged, so hopefully will actually at least gain some extra shares in the end if nothing else.

Have actually been looking up other shares for the last couple of days for the fist time in just over 5 years just in case there is a drop too close to my average for comfort, hopefully it won't come to selling and investing elsewhere but best to be prepared just in case as this week has been pretty sobering.

Anyway still invested here, this is my only share in my portfolio, whole life savings invested, 281000 shares ave 17.42 think the terms of stage 2 will determine if I stay invested here or not, so will be invested for the next 3-5 months more than likely unless we have another week as bad as this one then will sell or possibly add more will just have to just wait and see.

Well done all LTH for continue to hold, hopefully we will be back into the 30's this week.

Sometimes it is very difficult to be positive when the sp drops 40 % in 3 days, I understand people need to try and stay positive, but if todays update was that good then why didn't the sp go up 16 % as opposed to down? sorry don't mean to come across as bill maher would call Trump a 'whiney little *****' just feeling a little deflated at this point, hopefully will see a recovery back into the 30's this week but just don't really see that happening but then again can't be ruled out I suppose.

Also topping up yesterday as opposed to today wasn't one of my better decisions in hindsight but I suppose many on here are the same boat.

The thing is what news realistically could be released that will get the sp back to say 35p? historically torps or updates usually send the sp down around 5 %, it seems that the sp has no problem dropping 40 % in 3 days but for it to then make back that 40 % you will most likely be waiting 12 months? 18 months? I mean news of any torps is expected so they won't do much to the sp, guess if they stated that the build is ahead of time then that would most probably result in a big boost for the sp but its most probably more likely that the build will take longer than expected.

I'm not deramping as am still fully invested here just genuinely wondering what the catalyst will be for the sp to move back up into the mid/late 30's.

Maybe I'm being a bit negative, lots of people on here still seem to be positive but the sp reaction to todays news suggests that this news isn't seen as very positive at all.

I don't understand why they have pushed back the stage 2 financing into next year, anyway am struggling to really find the positives from this week, guess when you go from being 52 grand up then 3 days later you are 25 grand up you most probably wouldn't be very happy overall.

costs have risen by 400-600 million and stage 2 finance might not be announced until up to 31st March next year as opposed to the year of this year as previously stated?

Google finance, eventually HL and here and the london stock exchange website will show a closing price of 32.66, the earliest and most accurate closing price is at 16.35 when on google finance the price will change usually around the 16.35 +. 25-30 seconds after 16.35 and whatever the price it gives then is what the closing price will ultimately show on HL and london stock exchange website and on here.

32.66 - 5.55 %

Lets hope you are wrong, not long to go now though until we will all know for sure then each investor can make their decision based on whatever the terms of the stage 2 finance is, one thing is for sure the market won't look on dilution very favourably, I think if stage 2 is 100 % debt the sp will move well into the 40's but if there is equity involved then I can see the sp dropping to mid 20's at a minimum imo.

I agree that it will get built but as long as its not at the cost of us shareholders being diluted any further, what I'm saying is its all well and good it being built but its no good for shareholders if we are diluted any more, big 2-3 months coming up as the make up of stage 2 finance will dictate if I will stay invested here or not, I'm guessing many other LTH here may be inclined to reconsider their position if there is any further dilution because if any more dilution occurs then that will be unacceptable in my opinion, just my view though, obviously each private investor has different situations that they will put up with.

To be fair CF must be extremely busy getting stage 2 finance sorted so guessing every day he needs to be in this country overseeing everything.

I'm presuming that he would have been invited or perhaps the government want to give other companies a chance instead and it isn't a reflection on how much they adore us.

Anyway just trying to make sense of why we wouldn't be on the trip, if someone could message the co to try and get conformation as to if anyone from the company will be on the trip or not that would be good to know.
