Cannot be much of a judge when he was very excited when the share price was 9 bags higher.

If he starred in a snuff film, it could be a blockbuster.

The so-called activists have no skin in the game; maybe have some sympathy for those who got spiked when the "Formal Sale Process and Commencement of Offer Period" was announced. Some of them need a 50% increase in the share price just to break even, which is a bad place for a trader who gets in under an expected offer price to be in.

'Forecasters also warned that the situation could be worsened by a rare weather feature called a 'sting jet' - a small area of very intense winds that can firm inside a storm, which happened during the 1987 Great Storm. '

Troajan says "tomora?....strap in..". You still have a chance to strap down outdoor furniture and secure anything else that will become flying debris. Better safe than sorry; gales reach London by midday.

And it is a full moon, so a gale blowing up the Severn River is going to create a proper surge even though a bore is not expected under normal weather [which a gale is not].

Probably Communists, so I would expect either the Norwegians or the North Koreans.

Startup transforms old electric car batteries into better-than-new ones

https://www.wbur.org/news/2022/01/25/lithium-ion-battery-recycling-electric-vehicles

The batteries they make from recycling batteries are better than the original batteries... So demand for lithium is limited, a bit like aluminium, due to the economics of recycling. Worth remembering whilst some chase the lithium dream...

But what ocelot omits to mention is that those trades are worth around £200k.

But that is not an impressive figure that might entice a new investor.

The Covid tests I ordered online yesterday afternoon are due for delivery today.

As early as 1996, the Netherlands was labelled as a narco-state in a French government report. Since then, the question of whether the Netherlands is actually a narco-state has been asked many times and the answer depends strongly on which characteristics are attributed to a narco-state. In any case, the size of the drug sector in the Netherlands suggests that drug crime has been a persistent problem in the Netherlands for years and that the fight against it constantly poses complex questions to politics and criminal justice. In 2018, several police detectives stated in a report by the Dutch Police Association that the Netherlands "already exhibited a painful number of characteristics of a narco-state". Minister Grapperhaus of Justice and Security stated in a response that the Netherlands is not a narco-state. After the murder of lawyer Derk Wiersum and crime reporter Peter R. de Vries, the qualification of the Netherlands as a narco-state received new attention

QE and inflation is why GOV need to tighten belts and increase taxes... but the Conservatives know it is not a vote winner.

So will a populist GOV do the right thing and risk becoming less popular?

And, of course, we have inflation...

Of course you can keep printing - you just get inflation...

WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. intelligence officials on Tuesday accused a conservative financial news website with a significant American readership of amplifying Kremlin propaganda and alleged five media outlets targeting Ukrainians have taken direction from Russian spies.

The officials said Zero Hedge, which has 1.2 million Twitter followers, published articles created by Moscow-controlled media that were then shared by outlets and people unaware of their nexus to Russian intelligence. The officials did not say whether they thought Zero Hedge knew of any links to spy agencies and did not allege direct links between the website and Russia.

Day trading; no; but if something I believe in gets too cheap I get tempted... I bought another 100k PHC shares at 8.9p a few weeks ago and they are 11.4 to sell now. Tempting to take the £2.5k profit but they should have more legs and there is nothing else I want the money for.

I would not be surprised if they get to 20p sometime this year which would give me my CGT allowance... I hate paying tax.

There are specialist employment agencies such as:

GOV to stop giving free Rapid Antigen Tests to folk in England, possibly as soon as next week. If you want / need a box of test [7 in a box] order them for free whilst you can:

I am sure Doris and his mates will keep getting free tests but that is because they are more important than us [ pause, doff cap now].
