Say we were offered (and accepted) said 30p share (and say we had 90% of the sale revenue returned to SHs as a 'Special Divi' as SD has suggested) would not the share price afterwards be decimated after having sold off our 'key asset'?

The question is what price would be ''fair value'' (and would Newmont be prepared to pay it)? 🤔

''That's another breach of the AIM Rules by the way''

Which will never be enforced because our wonderful FCA are about as worthless as two squirts of p 1ss from a dead dog's d 1ck! 😡

''there’s a lot of poor souls who invested at a lot higher than I’m sure we have and must be sitting at the most a near 90pc loss''

Yup, sitting on an 82.54% loss (£62,638.71 in real money!!! 😒) at the moment and need to see £2.40 odd just to break even! 😢😢

Sh 1t or bust time!?!

Agreed HallsWorthy and I myself will certainly be voting 'No' (although what good it'll do us still remains to be seen?!)

Was that 'Lifted' on Netflix Panama?

(Great movie, really enjoyed it!)

I know how you feel JoubertDuquense.

Lost my dad two years ago last Saturday. Leaves a big hole! 😢

''not a fair playing field is it''.

Never was BRILLGOLD and never will be!! (Too many 'vested interests' to ensure there will ever be 'fair play' and the feckless FCA are about as useful as t*ts on a goldfish!!!)

''Anyone have any views on whether this is legal''

Whether it is or isn't the FCA won't give a flying f cuk either way!

Just accept that we're going to get royally shafted and no matter how loud we scream about it NOTHING will be done by those who are supposed to 'police' these things!!

(May as well just bend over, grab your ankles and wait for the inevitable!)

''I do wish someone would come along and make an offer for GGP and put some of you out of your misery.''

I never thought I'd hear myself say this, but at this moment in time (especially after the last three years or so) if someone offered anything north of the previous ATH (unlikely I know!) I'd probably bite their arm off! 🤨😔

Exactly Watcher36!

(The best decision I ever made in my life was to never have kids the way the world is going!!)

Same here Trippy (and will have many years to rue that decision, unfortunately)! 😟

Thanks guys (I'm a born pessimist unfortunately!)

Whatever games are played I'm still not selling (unless circumstances force me too, and hopefully by then the sp will have drastically improved!)

''Suppress the SP ready for a low ball offer''

Exactly as has happened over at Shanta Gold Chellybaby! Just hoping (praying) the same isn't happening here!

''What have we all missed that Beren hasn’t missed?''

The client on who's behalf they are really working for Grouchfungus, because it sure as sh 1t ain't for our benefit (AIMO of course)!!!

Thanks for taking the time to read it markjphennesseyg, his generation were a different breed!

Sad tale Droverman, especially after the sacrifices made during the war (but then nothing good has ever come out of a Labour government for those who choose to work hard and try to better themselves!)

Great story Droverman

My grandfather was an engineer for most of his life as was one of his brother's, Jack.

Jack worked for Vincent HRD for quite a while and his apprentice there at the time was one John Surtees!

He was also on 'Pathfinders' during WWII for which he was awarded the DFC, and he responded to a request form the BBC for 'War Stories' back in 2005 and his was subsequently published.(He celebrated his 100th Birthday a while back but didn't make it to 101 sadly)

Agreed Leftos, although he wasn't at all famous.

He owned a string of Dry Cleaning Stores that his father had started that made him pretty wealthy. Always had nice cars (I remember riding in my first BMW 7 series when I was 12 ) and lived on a private estate in Esher.

Died penniless though as passed ownership of the business over to his son and his son's ex-wife got the lot after their divorce!

(There's a moral to that story me thinks! 🤔🤨 )

Hi Tom,

I had fully intended to come over to Harwoods yesterday but the tenant in my own house that I rent out (whilst I still live in my late father's whilst we decide what to do with it) had an issue that I had to go deal with. 😯😞

Maybe next time (or as you appear to be relatively 'local', if I see you out and about I'll stop and say hi or see I'll you at one of the 'GGP Meets' this summer maybe!)

Fab looking car, I hope you get many miles of pleasure out of it!

(Oh, and Happy Birthday! 😉)

The husband of the sister of my late maternal grandfather bought a Ferrari GTO in the early 60's (brand new from the Geneva Motor Show and one of only 36 ever made ) which he used in hill climbing competitions for couple of years before selling it on.

I believe from memory it set him back around £6,000 at the time (about the same as my parent's house, the one that I grew up in and currently reside after my dad's passing).

He's long gone now but if he was still alive I bet he'd wish he'd kept it!!!
