Tony, thanks mate I hope all is well with you and you’re keeping your chin up. I have to say I do catch myself dealing with a problem and think I know I’ll ask Dad or Mum but of course they died a few years back. It’s a very sad time you’re going through and I feel for you I really do.

Had another text about my grandson; the surgeon was happy with everything and they disconnected all of the parts of his brain that they needed to so we have to wait and see what effects this trauma has had on him. If it’s stopped the seizures that’s a good start. Currently he has drainage tubes sticking out of him and he’s too young to understand what they’re for so will have to be carefully monitored to make sure he doesn’t rip them out.

Thanks mate, Pete

Red, thanks mate you’re right there, kids shouldn’t have to go through sh*t like this. I’ll just keep my fingers crossed for him that it doesn’t have too much of a effect on his development.

ATB Pete

Les, thanks mate very nice of you. Enjoy the match, personally I’ll stay in the warm and watch Chelsea on BBC with a couple of bottles of Bud, peanuts and crisps. Just the ticket.

I just thought I’d update everyone after the very kind thoughts I received yesterday on my grandson. We got a text last night at about 9 to say his parents had just been told that he was doing fine. So just about 12 hours from when he was taken down for surgery which is a long time to be under anaesthetic at such a young age. This morning we woke up to a text to say that he did sleep for some of the night but is ok. That’s as much as I know, so now it’s a waiting game again to see if the operation was a success and the limit of his abilities.

ATB to everyone again for the very kind words, Pete

Oops sorry wrong board.

M135i, it must have been heart wrenching for you. I can’t imagine how you felt. You must have shoulders 6 foot wide. Take care mate.

Pete

Tony, you haven’t high jacked anything mate there’s room enough for us all on this board, regardless of timing. Take care of yourself and have a tipple this evening and remember one of your favourite things about your Dad, something that will make you smile inside.

Pete

My many thanks for all of the very kind words from you all. What a great bunch of people. Thank you.

Pete

Tcx (Tony), I’m really sorry to hear about your Dad, you know my thoughts are with you and your family. I bet he really was a proud man and took life on the chin when he had to. Independence is a huge part of getting older, if you lose that you haven’t got too much.

ATB to you Tony I hope you have some brilliant memories of your Dad.

Pete

I think today could be classed as a good day at the office. We ended in the blue so what’s not to like.

I hope everyone has a good weekend and gets to enjoy a rest from this board if they so choose. I’m sat here waiting to here if one of my grandkids brain operation was successful, which will hopefully stop his seizures and allow his parents a little bit of peace without worrying every two minutes in case he has one whilst playing. He’ll end up with probably less movement on one side and probable impaired vision on one side, but will hopefully have a better quality of life as he grows up. Life is cruel sometimes but with any luck EUA will romp home and allow me to get him the things he’ll need without having to wait for the NHS to provide for him out of their limited resources.

Have a good weekend, Pete

combo, see gaza at 1503 post, you’re too late ;-)

ATB Pete

Stej, I don’t want to pick you up on your use of the English language but surely you mean PAYtience ;-) lol

ATB Pete

Morning All, I hope you had a nice quiet night. Back to business today for the last trading day of the week and also Russian Christmas Day. Would have been a brilliant day if we’d got another RNS after being told that we’re going to get a minimum of 80% as a divi yesterday. Good luck to everyone today, we may not get any news out of Russia, but there’s still news to come from here in the UK i.e. JORC results, now that would be brilliant.

ATB Pete

Marco, thanks for putting meat on the bone.

ATB Pete

Postman, shortly ;-)

ATB Pete

CAW, I agree with you on what you’ve stated, especially on WK. I’ve thought for ages that it would be kept and used for cash generation. It has three wash plants that may or may not be working at full capacity and with the ongoing work could be ramped up further if they install more heavy machinery etc. we already know our company has got good green credentials so if they can get more out of the ground at little extra cost it would be a win win for EUA v2 and for its investors (that’s us of course) just my opinion but perfectly feasible.

ATB Pete

I like corn flakes, does that make me a cereal ramper :-)

Now that’s more like it, some meat on the bones - at least 80%, come on Christian tell us how much :-)

ATB and a very good morning to everyone, Pete

Mark, I agree with you- what are we missing?

Is it lack of news?
MM games?
Instis know that no immediate news to come, therefore invest elsewhere for a while?
Algorithm set to make it appear incorrect?

Who knows why we’re down it’s just another occasion where we’ve got to grin and bare ;-)
