Thanks for that very accurate analysis!

I hate to write this but some days ago I also came to the reluctant decision to vote against AM's re-election.
I just hope that he has the courage and fortitude to do the decent thing and take his well-deserved retirement leaving someone else to guide us forward.

The answer to what seems to be your rhetorical question is surely covered in the last 2 words: "to date".
If I'm not mistaken today's date is the 21st and the date of the AGM is the 25th so we're not quite there really are we?
Enough already, let's see what unravels in the next few days eh?
LT

So you believe your "naive" comment to be factual - correct me if I'm wrong but isn't that your subjective opinion?
See you on Friday.

I shall be there too so look forward to meeting with you when you can tell me to my face what you think of me rather than being a keyboard warrior!
I am booked in the V&A and have arranged to meet up with some fellow travellers for a few beers and maybe a curry later!
Just looked at marbur's posting history - he's now on filter as I'm not prepared to waste the oxygen reading his incessantly negative and highly derogatory stuff.

I remember my missus coaxing me onto the Big One just after I met her when I was in my mid-50's and me being a tad petrified at hurtling down the drops that seemed to go on forever before that most re-assuring turnaround as the ratchet kicks in and up we went ......... very exhilarating indeed!
Sound familiar?
Sure, the expectation of news today and its non-appearance has naturally frightened off some folk and it is shame on the Company for not offering them some sort of reassurance to allay their natural fears.
Knowing something of what's happening behind the scenes, I certainly would not advise selling but fully expect this post to elicit the normal vitriolic response from the usual suspects.
What a rollercoaster of a ride ...... #excitingtimes indeed!!!!

Hi all
Was it only yesterday that our SP rose by over 8% and, if so, why are some folk so surprised to see the inevitable fall-back as the “usual suspects” take their profit and walk away from the NUOG gaming-table-gift that just keeps on giving ……… well, until the inevitable arrival of the next RNS(s)!!!!!
Problem is that no-one quite knows when that will arrive but I can tell you that quite a lot of people now seem to have a very strong indication of what it/they will contain as witness the convergence of itemised elements of “information” communicated to me by people who are not “insiders” but who seem to have a very good idea of what is going on here.
Everyone and their dog knows that there will be news pre-AGM and given what I am hearing from these non-insiders, stuff that I will definitely not nay-say, we are in for a pretty spectacular ride over the next week or so.
I shall be at the AGM, probably driving up from Dorset on Thursday and staying the night to enjoy a few beers so I can arrive fresh on Friday morning – I am pretty sure that I shall be a fairly happy-chappie by then!!!!!!

You do your writing and your reputation a dis-service by your strapline as anticlimax it certainly IS NOT!
When a man of your gravitas gives such a forensic analysis of their understanding of where we're at, based on their own empirical evidence, I believe that we should all pay that due regard and attention ........ I know I am!!!
Thanks in bucketloads and certainly no b0**0cks in my opinion!!!

Sorry to read of your plight - I've reached the grand old age of 68 and am still an untouched virgin as far as surgery goes but know that I have so abused myself over the years that there is a certain inevitability about what awaits me!
You look after yourself and take any jollop you are prescribed but the best jollop of all is an evening out with the missus consuming a vindaloo curry and 4 or 5 pints of Warsteiner accompanied by half a bottle of white ....... hic!!!!
I shall be at the AGM and look forward to meeting with friends and adversaries alike!

That post has convinced me that you are just a chancer/trader as you seem so hell-bent on disregarding anything that anybody with experience here can post.
Idiot and now on filter!

My God seadog - that’s far too cryptic for this old gig to unravel!!! Help please!!!!

3 recent posts from Stockhouse to add to the mix:
“Hearne posts at 1:10pm today
Barry you think they are dealing with NU? I don't think so............but this is only my opinion.
We could be surprised.............but Shoal Point is not sittng back waiting on NL anymore.
Cheers,
Hearne
Barry replies 2:40pm:
I’m excited about the new possibilities of future plays more then Newfoundland. Mark seems to be very aggressive and with the huge potential of Newfoundland in the back ground this could be a hot stock to own. For Eric not commenting on nu oil could be a very positive thing. Who knows. I know that mark is aggressive in finding another big play. He has proven to be very successful at this. Even by taking on shp and Giga metals. Time will tell
Hearne further responds 3:23pm:
Barry you are so right!!!!!!!!!!!! So much to come finally!! “
That’s enough of Stockhouse for now as I am eagerly awaiting what Tedules has to say!
LT
Hi Ted
I did use that number so will delete it forthwith!!
Looking forward to your post and hoping it adds to the narrative that seems to be moving into positive territory.
See you on the other side!
LT
Hi Ted
Welcome back indeed and I await your observations with keen interest as I know that they will be unbiased and carry with them the integrity of the man I know you to be.
I have put a call into an old number I have of yours and hope that you might call me if only to confirm that you're back in town!
All the best,
LT
This was posted by ellen yesterday on Stockhouse – I remember her informed posting from many years ago right up to now and my recollection is that she’s a local.
“Thanks for the news Barry. I'll call in next week and will report back”
Things certainly look like they're hotting up, if only to prise an update out of Mr Minty. .

Hi Cobra
These are the critical words that make all the difference ....... potentially!!
"might be worth having another chat with MJ"
Anyways, we should know soon enough eh?
LT
Just been browsing Stockhouse and come across this exchange:
“Barry posts on 31.12.18
I don’t think nu oil wants to partner I think they want someone to take over the lease for a percentage of the revenues. Shoal point energy is in the best position for this. Let’s see what the next 3 months brings. Let’s hope we get a new play while we wait for Newfoundland to get give the green light.
Canoil who’s profile has him living at St Johns posts this morning (their time presumably)
Morning Barry, might be worth having another chat with MJ (ed: Mark Jarvis CEO of Shoal Point Energy who own the shallow rights to EL10170 NOT the deep rights which we own!). Something's finally happening with 1070 I think.”
MY TAKE
It’s worth noting that Canoil is NOT a frequent poster as his last post was January 27th 2018 and his posting history on Stockhouse tells me that he only posts when there’s something of import happening!!
Watch this space eh?
LT
No s***t Sharelock!
I'm liking the way that you eviscerate the statement into these lovely bite-sized chunks of very clear and incisive points that show exactly the direction this Company is going in 2019!
I am looking forward to updates on several fronts which I have advised AM should really come out pdq if he wants to leave the AGM with his gonads intact and fully functional!
He's no-one's fool despite what some may say here and I KNOW he's listening!
2p by the AGM would do me very nicely and I'm still NOT prepared to raise my hopes above 5p for reasons previously stated!

Apologies for not posting sooner in response to the RNS but a close family bereavement placed my personal share portfolio in its rightful place behind what was much more important stuff.
You will all know that, as an insider, I have to be careful about what I post but I know that it’s OK to give the latest update RNS my personal “thumbs-up”, which I wholeheartedly do!
I do this because I believe that it contains a balanced view of where we are right now and carries with it the promise of a much enriched 2019 for our Company which is very much in line with what I came away with following becoming an insider in November.
Incidentally, it’s interesting to see already that the naysayers who castigated NUOG for giving what they previously perceived as rather vague chronological indications of project-fulfillment are the very same people now complaining that the Board – very wisely in my opinion – are not repeating that exercise by not committing themselves to stringent timelines and indicating projects will come across the line in 2019, rather than “in short order”, “imminently” or whatever – a NUOG Catch-22 where I genuinely feel for their position.
The reason for that conclusion is that, as a busy man who is well passed retirement age but who still works and pays taxes, I simply cannot be bothered to indulge in the many “conspiracy theories” that surround this share which is why I have taken the heuristic route to guide me into my own interpretation of Occam’s Razor, i.e. don’t over-complicate unreasoned interpretations that suit one’s own agenda as the “cock-up” theory is often the simplest answer!
I have to say that the one great shame of being an insider, by the bye, is that I am prevented from buying NUOG shares by law, which thus prevents me adding to my over 5% stake but that disadvantage is far outweighed by the comfort I have of knowing what is going on and having the patience to wait for what I believe are extremely good times ahead.
I’ve done my research and had it reviewed at my meeting with NUOG who confirmed so much and added yet more which I am convinced will make 2019 the year that NUOG comes of age, so ……. Happy New Year to all serious long-termers!!!!!!

Been reading your posts over on Stockhouse where you seem very, very enthusiastic and positive about our possible tie-up with SPE so I was slightly puzzled by your cryptic post this morning as in: did you call into shoal point as a geographical location OR did you visit SPE'e offices?
I am really grateful in advance of your answer.
