�Not �everyone� PAAA� ..... Good grief. Are you suggesting you think LL is a bloke too? Well, I�ll be... Best grab a mirror when you can, eh per ardua ad astra !

Q.E.D. per ardua ad astra

Apologies, Balham. Just reread and taken onboard the sanctimony that could be taken from my post. I certainly don�t mean to appear a bit of a twonk, I�m just astonished that any reader here - let alone one with your take on things - should ever consider that the person who posts as LL actually is female. If that were true, humanity would have died out years ago imo. Cheers, per ardua ad astra

Her? Lol. The same place everyone goes wrong. If I should re-register as Gladys, will you suck on that too? FFS... per ardua ad astra

Hiya, Scotty. Gonna be a lovely day in Twickers tomorrow, so get yourselves down to the riverside for a few jars in the Barmy Arms or, towards Marble Hill, the White Swan. With the sun bouncing off the water and in theory more room to move, it should prove more pleasant and be much more amenable than having your pints spilt every few minutes in the Cabbage Patch. Hope you have a great day. Cheers, per ardua ad astra

Sorry if I sound like a complete twonk - well, tbh no, not really - but isn't an 'educated estimate' somewhat idiomatic? An educated 'guess' might potentially provide for some finger in the air predictions, however, an estimate is something rather more precise. Surely? Having said that, and whilst I'd rather not be drawn into any guessing games mesen, does anyone else consider it highly unlikely that our CEO will be diving headlong into any vested options that are almost due to expire ~43p all the while he could currently buy in the market nearly 30% more cheaply? per ardua ad astra

''I hate spooning'' ..... Eh? C'mon Chesh, what's not to love? Separating spooning from sleeping - with the dead arm, sucking in hair issues such an endeavour entails - what's there to hate? A hand free to do what a free hand can do is something our entire civilisation was built upon. And all we've gotta do is let it go to work. And whilst we're lying down to boot! Free the fingers fella... and enjoy! You know she/he/they will thank you for it. per ardua ad astra

Good evening, causal. Of course you are aware that I was responding to MrMath, however, since you ask I'd be hard pressed to pick any one charity in particular. Hence the reason I offered to MrMath ''the charity of your choice''. Fwliw, this week I've donated to Brathay Trust and a local care unit. There are a crazy amount of charities across our country that do good works and a donation to any of them is money well spent imo. Best wishes, per ardua ad astra

Can't argue with that, MrMath. Good that you'd positioned yourself whereby you were able to take advantage of opportunity as it arose. Rest assured, you weren't alone. Alas, some weren't quite so fortunate though. And if you are correct and we have finally said goodbye to the 20's, I can imagine they might be kicking themselves. Cheers, per ardua ad astra

Hiya, 15. I've much time for your contributions but gotta disagree with you here. The 8/7 vote in June '15 showed anyone who may have doubted it just how important it is to keep the local community onside. And whilst some longstanding shareholders might consider the monies better spent, I would respectfully disagree. This mine has a 100+ year lifetime and a few thousand pounds spent now keeping the local community onside is small beer in the grand scheme of things. There are myriad arguments that can be forwarded to advance our cause. Yet, they are all semantic, technical or perhaps for some, ephemeral. The referendum result demonstrated most keenly how public opinion can be easily bought. In my opinion subsidising the Red Arrows provides for much better value for money. And as a shareholder, I'll happily pay for it any day. Cheers, per ardua ad astra

''Casual, you may be right but if it does then I will buy some more'' ..... 26, 27, 28p only a short while ago not a good price to ''buy some more'' then, MrMath? As for 34-36p in the coming week, whilst I appreciate your enthusiasm I'll wager �50 to the charity of your choice that it doesn't happen. You up for it? Regards, per ardua ad astra

Excellent, Chesh! Can't say that I've actually 'nursed' a bee as you rather wonderfully inform us, however, I have offered a drop of sprite or something sweet before. Probably should've tried Red Bull. Apparently it... Cheers, per ardua ad astra

�The British have taken the lead on having this pesticide prohibited from use'' ..... But how can that be? I've been reliably informed that we don't have a say in Europe and that 'the EU' never listens to us. per ardua ad astra

I'm rather partial to the blue ones, Matt. I find that they give me a bit of a buzz. Cheers, per ardua ad astra

Pesky, meddling EU interfering with our right to poison our British honeybees. Thank goodness we're leaving. Then we'll 'take back control' and as a free sovereign nation be free to kill as many honeybees as we like. That'll show 'em. Who needs rubbish like apples, plums and peaches anyway, eh? Bleedin' Eurocrats... per ardua ad astra

That's a really classy touch, milender. It is a shame that you're unable to do so again this year; perhaps someone local could do so in your stead? Or failing that, just sit outside and crack a bottle of Chateauneuf and raise a glass to absent friends. Cheers, per ardua a� astra

Something I had considered for quite some time, OR. And any suspicion I might have had was only underlined by the less than keen take up of the company's recent offer. That has lead me to consider that most bond holders are more than happy with their current deal thank you very much, and that we should hope that such entities wouldn't ever dream of acting in concert in order to stymie our plans. Cheers, per ardua ad astra

Good morning, avocet. You say unrelated but, I'm afraid that I disagree. Any TorP that we might negotiate will have its value considerably tied to the price of the underlying nutrient. Granted, we may only have a quarter of the potash to be found in MOP, however, if the price of MOP is rising, the value of Poly4 should inevitably rise also. Inextricably linked as they are. I know we are trying to establish Poly4 as an innovative new product with its own USPs, however, as potash is secondary only to nitrogen in any fertilisation programme, the underlying value of potash will have a significant bearing on pricing in our favour. Thanks for the link; not looked there for a while. Regards, per ardua ad astra

Hi, Andy. Spread shouldn't really be a factor, because if you're buying that many you'd expect a sufficiently proficient broker to enable you to buy on the bid. Stamp duty is a consideration but at 25% of a 2% profit is not prohibitive. Brokerage fees may prove to be, however. Cheers, per ardua ad astra (off to stretch six legs)

''what is stopping a millionaire buying 20M shares, raising the SP through their purchase alone and then selling almost immediately for a 1/2% profit?'' ..... Apart from finding buyers for those 20m shares that weren't there when he/she managed to pick up 20m themselves for a lower price only a minute or two earlier? In theory... nothing. In reality... unlikely. Good question though; welcome to the board. Regards, per ardua ad astra
