Not sure you've understood what "note to self" means.

Ratification done, Iran resurrected, Saudi seal signed, Peter resigning? Time to pile in

As the great Bob Dylan sang: "Knock, knock, knockin' on seven's door".

Was this announced?

I thought the standstill period ended on 26 December? (Matching Yrabs 10 days quote)

This should be flying! Well done CB.

Never understood the criticism that a director purchase is too small. Even if £10,000 is “paltry”, they aren’t likely to be in the business of throwing their own money away. Plus it isn’t like PI investment. Tony can’t sell for a 20% gain. He will realistically have to hold for a much much bigger rise. So it shows way Moreno confidence than your average day trader. All looks very positive to me.

“You may have only lost a little, and you’ve just massively overreacted. I really don’t know.”

Ha ha. This has made my day.

Peter’s pen actually works!

Oh, just seen that Eskers beat me to it on Twitter.

Good god. Imagine how bad it would be if someone owed us money.

...Christmas one and all. Here's to a better 2021. I've stopped looking in here as regularly recently and its done wonders for my mental health, so switching off until the new year and going to spend the time eating my body weight in mince pies instead.

Oh I don't dispute that more votes will be cast this time round. I'm just noting that, even in circumstances like this, it is rare that a more than a relatively small % of shareholders will vote. A huge number of votes will be held by PIs with relatively small numbers of shares (less that 100,000 say (even if that might have been a big number 8 years ago!)) who will frankly be apathetic about voting (esp. if they don't know how to do so). That is why the board can probably be quite confident that the vote will carry.

161m shares in issue.
Votes cast for resolutions at last AGM, c. 22m.
That only around 14% of eligible votes.
Not hard to predict the outcome on a similar voter participation.

Not really. 50% of votes cast, not 50% of all eligible votes. There will be a huge number of shareholders that do not vote so the board's 10% will actually make up a much larger proportion of votes cast.

Sleep? He doesn't sleep. He's been working at "full throttle", remember, to process all those big Covid sales enquiries.

Because obviously 3 is one (potential/imaginary) contract and 1 is another.

and yet you remain invested Phil. Who's the fool?

I readily acknowledge that the other occasions are not direct comparables and 5p in 2016 is very different to 5p now. But I was here in 2016 (and well before that) and rued missing that opportunity and I believe we're one good update away from a bounce
