This is a real dog with fleas,only this morning it dropped 1.78% and yet the volume was only 800?? Its by far the worst share in my portfolio,i curse the day i bought this share.

Agreed, sadly i bought in 3 months ago just before the second drop. Just an awful stock in a company ran by a complete prat by the looks of it.

Can't believe how awful that annual report was....all i can see is "Risk" "Failure" etc etc. Awful.

Yes its great news Cardiff101...this one has had a great week (so far)...i'm really close to my selling price,a half-decent day tomorrow with DOM getting to 3.25 will see me enjoying a content easter!

Agreed jeffa...i'm up to my ISA allowance so can't invest atm but hopefully one of my oil shares will hit target the next few days and i can sell out and but into this one. Looks like a bargain to me.

I just read the link above above from Motley fool suggesting its time to dump this stock. I have a rule...if Motley Fool says "Buy" I sell... and vice-versa. I'll be looking to buy on Monday. I don't think Neil Woodford wants to look stupid here, he hasn't sold his stock and he's just launched another fund that is being punted heavily on the Hargreaves Landsdown site and others so he can ill afford to look like he's messed up!!

Interesting info orangetree...thanks. Be interested to hear what your conclusions are?...decent share to get into to ? Sadly i got in at 74p and its the worst performing share in my portfolio.

Certainly hope so Dancy...i'm in as of today at 309.

"DYOR"....what do you think i'm doing here by asking the question? I can't stand people on message boards that come up with that tired ego-filled response. Scroll on by Raybab if you don't like my posts.

Thanks Twonko for taking the time to reply. So seeing as L&G havent actually confirmed the dividend yet this might be a decent time to buy L&G assuming i'm prepared to hold them a while after the XD date has passed?

Apologies in advance for what may well appear to be a naive question but humor me if you can. I saw from a press comment that L&G plan to boost its dividend to 14.2p a share which is not too shabby. I don't hold any L&G shares but with a dividend like this i'm tempted,my question is do you have to hold the shares buy a certain date to get the dividend or do you have to hold them for a certain time to get that dividend?

Yes I read that report this morning, i'm guessing there'll be a fair few out there like me that think this is a decent time to buy in.
