S. I've emailed TTG now to tell them how slow and amateurish Histate (the distributors) are. They're bringing something to market for where there is a potential goldmine and your main distributor seems to absolutely SFA about it and does naff all marketing. Blood boiling!

S. I registered another expression of interest in Virolens last week and asked for a quote for a sports club. At least I got a reply this time. They say they will get a team on to it! Is that a joke do you think? This is what concerns me, is how prepared are they for lift off. Have they done any costing at all, they just don't seem to be very on the ball (joke)

Sounds good trading S. TTG is a difficult one. IAbra seem to have got it all arse about face. I don't know if you read my post about theabsrdirty of trying to charge £50 a test when a) it was supposed to be about opening up the economy and b) the government are giving away free tests to get back to work. Their is apparently more interest abroad where Keyoptions are about to test back in November. Must be testing it to destruction. Terrible communication between IAbra and TTG. hope it all comes out int wash eventually, great invention, can they convert to cash? Mcro not one I'd want to be out of now to be honest. I expect an opportunity will present. I was hoping to load my ISA with a few more.

Good morning Brigade. Never read so much negative press and analyst down play about an IPO. You can only have 1000 shares max even as a customer. Bet that doesn't apply to institutions. Expect Deliveroo will be a howling success now. Sounds like it could coincide with a strike by staff.
Well done N. Did you have CLX? That started quite slowly and has more than doubled since. Its on quite and insane peg, but that seems par for the course these days. Good company, great sector. I could'nt believe Airbnb either and thats done well. I think there is a general feeling that IPO's have got a bit frothy and they are all rushing to market to make hay while the sun shines. Lots of talk still about USA waiting for correction, Buffets been apparently piling into Japan recently. I recently bought a couple of trusts. Always that ominous overhang of earthquakes and tsunamis lurking in the background, but there is no doubt their economy has recovered strongly last few years but still not to where it fell from in 1988.

V. I couldn't believe F1 had kicked off again.. I thought they always started in Australia. Quite a few new faces including another Schumaker. Wonder if he will be as ruthless as his old man. Not been many father & son F1 drivers. So far we've had Hill and son, Villeneuve and son, Palmer and son and now Shcu, brother and son. Any others?

A bright and sunny good Morning from Deal. Damn good sleep after forgetting the clocks went forward. Yes last day of tax year Thursday as we head into Easter already. T I was showing my partner some Brian Moore clips of rugbies less flattering moments of brawls are and high tackles. It looks quite funny now but I don't know how there weren't more injuries. Paul Ackford and Wayne Dooley laid out cold. Apparently when Dooley came round he said to the ref 'who ever that was, don't send him off!' New rules, sitings and third umpire have all helped speed up the game and of course no French fag breaks. Its great that on the whole the game is cleaner but in many ways far tougher. Training, fitness, tactical analysis and trackers have all helped planning and plotting against opponents to an almost scientific level. So hedgefund going down? Wonder if Robin Hood will get the blame. If regulators did their jobs and maybe stopped companies shorting stock they don't own that would help. I believe that was the original idea to hedge your own bets not profit from driving down someone elses property.

Good news C. Must be a huge relief.
I may be wrong but CGT was my main reason for going back to having an accountant for my tax return. Feels like a more professional front. I do the donkey work and he charges me a for about an hours work. Probably takes about ten minutes plus a couple of letters. Congratulations T on the championship win, well deserved. Has been some of the best six nations rugby in the last two weeks. Even my partner has been ecstatic about it.

S storage is a good earner but there has been good capital growth too. I currently hold WHR. They did a placing recently and the whole bb complained about not being able to take part. I paid about 1p above the placing for heavens sake and they pay a 5% div quarterly like many reits. They subsequently bought three new properties in Glasgow Harlow and Liverpool last month yielding 6% and possibly rising. Sp fell back from 1.30 to 1.23, so might get more. Thinking about Shed (Urban)to purchase next hopefully in ISA

My god S&M glad I don't have to do your tax returns. Still nice pile in NYCT S. Are you notifiable or certifiable lol? Thats amazing , now I get the reference to 2.5 Teslas. Its another crypto currency. You could buy a lot of stuff off Amazon with that, a lot of cardboard too. I really missed the boat on packaging, meant to invest last year its been a great investment as has shipping. A lot of people think growth shares are done for now and looking at recovery stock. I think there are some potential booby traps in recoveries, and making light of all the placings and dilutions., and frankly some were on the way to going bust before the pandemic. Scots 11/2 to win against France. Quite tempting. Trouble is they are quite reliant on two players. Would be a great victory unlikely but not totally beyond them. It would be strange if all the teams that beat England loose to France, one of our only two conquests.

Better day all round I hope for everyone. Mcro is surprising us by doing what we hoped it would more or less. I bought the Naked Traders trading tips book, not bad for basics and not too technical, only took an evening to flip through. I will pass on to my son, hopefully some good pointers there. Burns is an incredibly successful trader of 20 years. Not sure how he has had such a high rate of success. I seem to have a lot in common with the shares he buys, just not in the same quantity. Often sees to hold 1 or 200k in one stock. I imagine you would need a proper broker to shift some of that size. My max in one stock is 65k. If you guys are talking 7 figures does that mean you are over 1 million invested? Thats quite a lot. feel free to ignore lol

Rather surprised TTG has not taken off yet. Maybe I'm missing something but the market seems to be super cautious after last time so has allowed me to nip back in. This a no fuss 20 second test that can detect any virus or bacterial infection. Its cheaper quicker and more efficient than any product I've seen on the market. It seems to have taken a lot longer to get approval after Heathrow boss asked Boris to fast track the testing which seems to have been left entirely to Iabra to do. Maybe there was some tweaking to be done. Any way this. should get used at entertainment, sports venues, work environments , conferences etc. This could be theme changer to compliment vaccines

C. Sorry to hear about your sons's accident. Best wishes and good luck.
S TTG flying although surprisingly they say they still have to get verification from in other counties. Probably a formality compared to here. I thought Keyoptions Asia/ Australia should be way ahead of the game.
RNWH the only one flying in my PF today. Acquisition of family firm J. Browne (services to water industry)

S Pretty guarded RNS from TTG after what happened last time on Virolens news it shot to 2.70. They are saying trials are in final phase drawing to conclusion. "Depends on interest converting into orders on how it effects TTG . ' Of course it does. Think your wise to hang on, its hardly news to be honest. I think they were commenting more on the SP movement. The main business was ok in the update, but not quite firing on all cylinders

C. I've just had a break down of charges from IG. Spent over 1k. Amazing how it mounts up, and that was supposed to be occasional trades account. Tempted to leave it open in case I buy any global stock this year. All this news about Salmond and the poison dwarf and now they are not going to anything with either of them. Hope they have the sense to vote Rab C Nesbit's wife out of office.
I've only got Beg inching up everything else pretty static. Even Anic gave up todays gain. I'm not going in at that price. Thats why I'm leaving my IG account open in case some of their companies IPO soon, no point in paying 6 times what they are currently worth

Hi N. Jim Mellon mentions Quorn in a pod cast he did with Food Tech. Yes it was strange to hear Quorn is a Phillipines company. Its been around since the eighties I think. Not a great fan. I remember some veggie friends serving it uo for super and my dish contained a bone which caused much amusement. I cat think of a specific company. Mellon reckons the big Congs like nestle and Kellogg are already taking positions themselves either in stat ups or directly themselves. Is it oakwood foods that do pea plant based food? Don't know if they are listed. There are also a host of biotech involved in stem cell food, not sure many of them are listed either. Highly recommend Mellon's book it has a list of hundreds of companies involved in this 'food revolution, ' its only a tenner and proceeds go to Food Tech. GL

Afternoon/evening. Sounds like a great idea T. We keep saying we want to look for somewhere warmer to winter. Not a lot of options without heading for the Southern Hemisphere. Its the after Christmas to spring here that drags and seems to have been prolonged periods of icy wind.
I see G mentions Anic. I bought the book Moo's Law, written by Jim Mellon which explains everything you need to know about Agronomics. After many years of trials and experiments it seems that we are on the verge of a new age of food production, cell flesh. Thats quite close to shell fish, which will be the first of these meat products to market by stem cell growth towards the end of this year. The statistics of the inefficiency of old style farming compared to these new ways of producing food are quite staggering, just in the use of water, land, deforestation and use of antibiotics. The one thing that held me off, was the expectation of another placing. Anic's actually share of investment in these different food companies is actually pretty small, but the pay off could be mega. I think it is a mistake in using normal metrics for valuations here (Anic is currently valued 6 times higher than the sum of its investments) . This is no normal investment. You have to think Amazon, Google, Microsoft. It will obviously build over the next few years, the only question is how fast. Most of the engineering has been done over the last 20 years, its now a question of scaling up and production. It will upset a lot of traditional producers to begin with and there will be resistance no doubt. I've no reason to doubt or argue any of Mr Mellon's study. This could cure pandemics, climate change, animal cruelty and starvation. A good investment for our own children and grand children. Hope it doesn't rise too much more before my ISA renewal.

Hi. See the Eu have 'reassured' uk that they want block uk's vaccine. So why say it in the first place? Bunch of morons. My partners brother and wife are French in their seventies and no idea when they will receive their vaccine. Both have had cancer. Its quite unbelievable. There is a very discontent nation. They were saying the support for Le Penne is growing by the minute.
S. Yes I got a little tempted. I see Carnival are planning some cruises round the British Isles, what with them Saga and the Royal Navy protecting our internet cables(where on earth do they come from, please god not France) it will be one big flotilla carnival.
I do think Saga got way ahead of itself. Still no institutional buying and Stenata still have a few to offload. Might be tempted if it got back under £3, but at the moment with the way Europe is going, not sure there is enough risk built into the price right now, and that goes for a lot of stock. If Mcro weakens again I'd rather put more in there to be honest. Pretty much sitting on hands now for ISA top up.

Morning all. T inflation worries and Uk asking the EU not to start a vaccine war, which of course is exactly what they have done to convince themselves that their inadequacy is our problem which it is rapidly becoming. Already sabre rattling and trade war talk. Utterly disgraceful. I think the IMF and World Bank need to exert a little pressure on the EU. Someone in their dishevelled union needs to get a grip and work out how they are going to solve the problem they created not blame everyone else.
S good luck, I didn't realise you had already subscribed with PB. I notice they say they want to expand in an underserved market. That surprises me but they must have evidence of that.

Just read the Edison report on Parsley Box. Growth looks impressive. Lots of fund raising. Fiercely competitive market. Their prices look very competitive. No debt , but not much sign of profit either which is obviously the tricky bit. Looks like jam in the far off future to me . Suspiciously good reviews on trust pilot. Trust not being a word I would associate with that reviewing site.
Seems to an IPO frenzy right now so probably will do very well initially. I'll pass on this as I am more interested in Jim Mellon's new Agrarian revolution according to Moos Law.

Just had an email Vimeo from PB on Parsley IPO. Sounds a bit desperate.
