GL to you

List so far is BATS,IMT,PAF,AHT,Britvic and Barr.Again if the last two unite before 1.1.13 will get an extra one.Still need one more anyway. Really,this is difficult, I haven't yet got enough to win,maybe still in-between...

Forgot to say that PAF is for my VPF'13 lol.

Another one is PAF Pan African Resources.Wish I'd cash to invest in that one..

IPI was 2nd highest riser on ADVN yesterday,I invest with RRR the 3rd top riser yesterday,noticed this here-is it any good ?

This isn't really a proper comp. till at least one other enters.I will personally regard shares others held this year as off limits for myself-prob. therefore CNR and MONI being game changers for the "opposition" though it doesn't follow they can continue forever.I hope to find my own good ones, a good challenge that though happy in the event to take up Last as I did in 2011 and might this year too! Someone has to be that.I'm used to it.And possibly good at it!

Worth a look at RRR even Jib was on there lol.

I stand to be made to look stupid,after the event but I believe my picks so far should keep me at least above water with no apparent FBT's there...however now I need to play tactics to see what I need to beat your very good AIM "shooting stars" ...so picking some dull FTSE100's won't do,but going to the extremes of getting more ATC/RRR-type disaster shares again won't do either lol.What next ?

Picking AHT again.

well at least the stock market closes a bit earlier on 31.12.12 lol so as to begin getting drunk.

No problem with that JT, the judges obviously agree lol.Since 31.12.12 is a hol. I'll know well before the time what to do.Can always produce another bad share for the list from great practice lol.

the merger from the RNS will give Barr holders 37% of the united company ( if voted through- no date yet given ) and Britvic holders will have 63% - it will be called "Barr Britvic Soft Drinks plc" the deal IS going ahead. I think if the judges agree I should keep the old Britvic shares carried on as new shares from then on. I think we should regard Barr the smaller company as being taken over though it is really a merger. There are special dividends too if it goes ahead but leave that for now. Hope it will be agreed.

those two do finally officially unite before 1.1.13, I will quickly get an extra one to make the numbers up.

I will reconsider-sorry about this.The one thing you don't get on the net is an eraser of posts lol.What confusion.I'll get there yet.Well instant change of mind,I must have Barr as well even if I do have two out of circulation quite quickly so be it. FINAL ANSWER-BATS,IMT,BARR AND BRITVIC with 3 more to come.Sorry about that series of U-turns.In any case changes of mind are unfair as it stops the others picking them,so that's best.

No takers for RRR then ? Actually I think it's on its low or nearly and should rise a bit but yes it is far too risky.In fact next year even FBT might wake up.If I fail to pick any of them they will !

I'm getting confused.Can I settle on keeping Britvic or Britvic/Barr but not Barr on its own ? I wasn't trying to gain any advantage from takeover jumps in Barr,and someone else can have Barr prob. Prar' will snap it up after the milk takeover and win again lol.So I am back to 3-BATS,IMT and Britvic or Britvic/Barr.If that's all right.

either I have three picked for 1.1.13 so far-Britvic/Barr,IMT and BATS.Or four-Britvic,Barr,IMT and BATS lol.

the judges might say I need to lose both at the fixed price of the deal if a merger goes ahead after 1.1.13 ..(?)

I can't withdraw from anything I've asked for but I'll also now book Barr which means- 1. if the merger goes ahead before 1.1.13, I just keep the merged company. 2. if it is a merger after 1.1.13, I lose the smaller company,Barr at the fixed price of the deal and work with 6 companies during 2013. -I've time to nominate an extra company if required if we know by then a merger has happened.Bit complicated but I think that's ok.

you should ask the judges if a merger is the same as a takeover..anyway still going ahead on this whatever.
