Isn�t that maddening, fatherelmer. Nico and the new team is not really showing much sign of positive development is he, after over 18 months in his role? Hopefully lots in the pipeline behind the scenes, to give him the benefit of the doubt? If only we private investors were kept more informed. But as you said yourself on Wednesday, perhaps there is nothing worth reporting. All very worrying really.

I do, and did, agree, fatherelmer. I was just making a point - again! [i posted this reply last night but I see it didn�t transmit. Maybe a glitch in the hotel�s wifi.]

&#128578 was an emoji which I should�ve known wouldn�t appear in its graphic form.

Hi Fjetcrazy: Sounds encouraging. I�ll check it out when I�m back home later tomorrow. Have been up to see old friends in Colchester today and decided to stay overnight in a hotel rather than face the long drive back well tanked up! Free Wi-fi here so, of course, I had to check the forum out. No surprise to find your sole post displayed! 🙂 Getting a bit fed up with seeing the SP languishing for so long below 20p still.

Thanks as ever, Fjetcrazy

Ah ha!! There's my � sign back! I like to use the "dash" sign (or what is typographically termed an en dash [half the width of an em dash!]) instead of a hyphen (when used to provide a pause in a sentence). I am reminded below that that gets corrupted too. I believe that has happened when using it in an email Subject line too. Again, from force of habit, I'm bound to use that again before long.

Just remembered this morning that I had been thinking that with others also having these problems, it might be down to a system glitch at LSE's end. So when they suddenly ceased in my posts I concluded that must've been the case. Obviously it wasn't. Even worse was the regular appearance of this pair "1�&#65533" either side of a quote which was how the double quotation marks appeared � as in "

Fjetcrazy [21:04]: I wish I had the full answer. I had the same problem for several days and resolved it temporarily with a compromise: using the grave accent ` which appeared without corruption. Though it was hard to remember to use it when an apostrophe was required after decades of correct usage. It just required careful proof-reading every post before submitting it. What I can't explain is what I did, if anything, or what eventually caused things to right themselves, that now I don't have to worry about it. Hope I'm not tempting fate by writing that! (I also use a Mac btw, FWIW.]

(Fjetcrazy: Since your last post appeared within a minute of mine, just to say that I was referring to your informative post of 15:37.)

Thank you as ever, Fjetcrazy; what would we [I] do without you! (This response delayed by The Post. (Not the Mail, the movie!)

fatherelmer [21:51]: Ever the optimist, eh!

At last! Let's hope it proves a positive for fastjet as has been anticipated by many of us waiting in the dark so long for this to come to fruition. But several months still before we'll know.

And the connection with fastjet is?

A very Happy New Year to all of you. May it turn out at last to be a really good one for fastjet – and us – too.

You seem to be just as sensitive Fjetcrazy, (no exclamation mark, then). Anyway, someone's upticked my post. :-)

.....or in English!!..... "For this reason fastjet will now be able to reside in such as Mtwara, Kigoma, Tabora, Arusha and elsewhere where ATR72 can safely stay."

Don’t international rules protect trademarks? According to my research, though far from exhaustive, both copyright and trademarks offer intellectual property protection, though different types of assets. Trademarks project logos or any “items that help to define a company brand.” Australian company, Fastjet Adventure Flights, have been operating for almost 10 years. So, erm, maybe I’d better keep schtum since we were only founded in 2011!! http://www.westernadvocate.com.au/story/5143456/approval-for-joy-flights-over-bathurst-in-old-chinese-warbird/ and https://www.fastjet.com.au

...to all my friends and/or investors here over more than five years now of watching and waiting. And waiting. And waiting....l! I hope you'll all have already been enjoying early Christmas festivities (which is why I'm posting so late but just past into Christmas Day itself. So...... A very Merry Christmas to you all and for the third time at least, every good wish for a Prosperous New Year, aided largely by seeing the beginnings of a return on our almost-vanished investments in fastjet. Festive greetings too to all our wonderful crews, management and staff and for greater success in 2018. Thank you all for your efforts throughout 2017.

Thanks PJMI, I did wonder if that might be the case. Even so, it`s still only 14 days before the flight dates so they still can`t be booked 21 days in advance!

Announced today, according to today’s Zimbabwe`s The Herald: ``...Fastjet will introduce additional flights on the Harare-Victoria Falls route in response to demand during the festive season. The airline will offer two daily return flights on the route on December 26 and 27.`` The article ends, pointing out: ``Fastjet requires customers to book 21 days in advance.``!! I`m sure Fj will know if these extra flights were actually available 2-3 weeks ago?
