Take a look at VIY - possibly very promising!
Though i've left the share, I occasionally look in. Every time I see your post below, I laugh. Superb humour, and very well written. ATB
I left yesterday, and went to VIY - interesting little company attracting the big boys, ie Chevron, etc.
Yes, I've been watching MAGP, but typically (for me) I missed out - thinking 'too late'. Will re-consider. Of course, DES is tied into RKH and BOR, and they're both down quite a bit today. However, I have to say I'm a novice. I do think, though, DES has a lot of potential. Will keep my eye on MAGP - and thanks. ATB
Just need a strike - and that will happen due to size of acreage - I think! Not sure that it will get up to £1.15, too rapidly - but who knows, in the oil business the sky's the limit... ATB
Thanks - made my weekend. Might have a lift in sp this week :-)
Germany certainly owes something. The whole thing stinks, in my opinion. Have a good weekend, and here's to good luck for us all next weekend.
I was told much the same as below when I was out in Crete last Novemeber by several Greeks at different stages of my two week stay in Chania. ATB
http://www.happensingreece.com/petition-ww-ii-german-reparations-to-greece/ Indicative of the current value of the German obligations to Greece are the following: using as interest rate the average interest rate of U.S. Treasury Bonds since 1944, which is about 6%, it is estimated that the current value of the occupation loan is $163.8 billion and that of the war reparations is $332 billion. The French economist and consultant to the French government Jacques Delpla stated on July 2, 2011, that Germany owes to Greece 575 billion euros from Second World War obligations (Les Echos, Saturday, July 2, 2011). The German economic historian Dr. Albrecht Ritschl warned Germany to take a more chaste approach in the euro crisis of 2008-2011, as it could face renewed and justified demands for WWII reparations (Der Spiegel, June 21, 2011, guardian.co.uk, June 21, 2011).
Amazing thing is Germany OWES Greece 575 billion euros from WW2 war damage, etc.
Good point. I guess I was thinking a little too far ahead of myself. I would like to know the political side to it all, though (not Argentina, etc), and whether the West will delay the inevitable invasion (IMHO) on Iran, etc, until other outlets of oil are available (ie Falklands). ATB
I might be wrong (I'm just a novice), but there could be a huge crisis in the Middle East before too long (Iran, etc). The West could well need (in part) an alternative oil source for that reason alone, and where will they look towards? Interesting times!
Thanks NUKO. Your knowledge and optimism has made my weekend. ATB
...sorry folks
If Desire Petroleum goes down to 20p, I reckon I'll buy. And if NAD goes to 3p. ditto. PFD is now going to be slow moving (but sure-footed). I'm hoping after the dust settles, followed by a disposal, or two, the sp will touch £2.00. Then I'll consider the future.
