Another twist in this tale....? I dunno...after 10 years, it just seems impossible to dream anymore and especially after the consolidation...I'd really need a miracle to even reach anywhere near what I invested all those years ago....but ya never know.....good luck to all of us who were there at the meetings in London and who once believed and risked enormously, albeit naively.....

I'm still here....unfortunately....just can't give up on all that money, like too many here...scum

Thanks, Brom!

Hey Brom, what does that mean for 88E holders? Please can you come to the rescue again?

Still here...and strangely now, every time I see a post from Mickey Masters or some of the others, it feels like we're the sole survivors of a shipwreck,...resigned to our fate and still looking out at the horizon for that ship that never came....but we're still looking out...it feels sad that so much time, so much money but most importantly, so much hope was spent over the last few years.... so much hope that was crushed as the other ships sailed by and left us stranded here....wish us all well my fellow desert island survivors.....the image of Morgan Freeman in the Shawshank Redemption scene where he is resigned to never getting parole is looming large in my mind...and then, just when he 'knows' he will never get out of prison, he's finally released...good omen:..? Most probably another passing ship..... Be well, all the old gang...

Great, thanks Brom....!

....and Yahoo Finance

Could someone please explain to me why Google finance has 88E UP 5.88%, while here we're exactly DOWN 5.88%? Thank you.

just voted...thank you.

Hiya.. yep, I’m one of those stupid enough to be still holding on! Wish you well…

I have to confess that ( regardless of the final outcome or our adventure, of which I am still very optimistic, even more now! ) I was quite moved this morning, reading the comments from all of our long term holders. A group of long suffering, strong individuals, with a dream that is still alive, notwithstanding the endless disappointments over the years ( Micky, your landing strip has become our symbol of the dream ) and I've been here since the very beginning like most of those...it feels so comforting, so familial, to have shared this in our lives and now finally, finally, will we see that dream come good? I wish it on us all, new and old....be well. Common 88E!!!

Hello to all those wonderful long term holders… yep, still here and haven’t sold any of my shares…not one…. Not bragging at all, feel pretty silly but over the years have always had the fear that as I sell, guaranteed they will strike it big…. But many years later… should I play the game or not? Still torments me… however …. Still here and still believe… Mickey I wish you well mate… wouldn’t it be great, even for just the once , the good guys, the faithful and the simple ones( referring to me mostly), got the big prize?! Faith is a tough one to maintain… but somehow we, long time sufferers, still believe… really wish you all well and to see you all again… Globe or otherwise…! Be well and good luck to all!

Ok, thanks, Howey! As for Brom, he's been quite 'up front' all along...I don't think he's led me to make any decisions I would not have normally made....good luck to us all, especially us long suffering, in up to our knecks, long term holders...Hello to you all...!

well...only a bit more to go before the £1 party...but anyone have a clue why we're up 11% this afternoon...?! Pleasant surprise...

Thanks Brom!

..hey Brom...meaning what?

Not sure what you mean, Brom...please can you elaborate..?

Hey Brom,
I think I may be speaking for a few of us when I say that the reason I don't and have not traded from the highs, is because I'm obviously wary that as soon as I sell, we are going to be bought out...or some surprise will spring forth i.e Longhorn or some positive occurrence and therefore I won't be able to buy back in at the same price I am in now...but after all these years of not selling even one share, I should risk I suppose...

Bloody hell..it's been a tough old wait, eh? I just keep hoping....can't seem to get anywhere near the 'wake up and smell the coffee' decision......somehow, I was, among others, infected by the Paul Basinsky bug....and yes, for my sins, I still believe in Icewine ( you had to be there, at the Globe, as many of us were, to fully understand his passion and belief in it)....Good luck to us all long suffering, original investors.....and the new ones too, of course...!

Me too! Still here!
