Worth a read for anybody reading the bbs for this company although you will spot the wide discrepancies in supposed takeover prices being spouted by one individual on different fora and over the past couple of years This individual has a track record of abusing other posters and other stuff which aint cricket in my view and is yet to predict anything right about this company so well done lsers for not rising to the bait. It would appear from recent rns that Mash has increased the stake here contrary to postings on this bb. Readers should familiarise themselves with the twelve month rule with regard to price paid. Also recent rns encourages staff share scheme holders to hold shares until at least September 2018 for a reward worth a minimum of £4 per share. In terms of the code "Favourable deals for selected shareholders are banned." Have a good summer folks. I am away for a well earned rest and am in a similar position to Costa.

Irene whole thing irrelevant probably unless you have a position in spd . What I am suggesting is that the powers that be don't give a hoot when Debenhams or John Lewis or anybody else pays staff under the minimum wage. But if somebody is trying to take a company private on the cheap as is now being suggested by a former poster on this bb who was touting a higher putative takeover price back in the day and who has switched to a rival chat site in respect of this share then there will be one almighty hue and cry - especially if a Brit is involved. They can take knighthoods away and raise legal actions if there is any monkey business going on. Coffee's a bit posh for me - glass of iced tea or buckie lol and time to sit in the sun now it's summer so maybe better using the google rather pose too many questions. I like Mike Ashley, it's some bb posters I'm not too sure of or keen on.

Irene spd are only prepared to buy these shares at sub £3 so the price is being held down artificially by the company itself which looks pretty odd and contrary to the purpose of most share buy backs. But you are right the share price will have to rise otherwise the company - leastwise in Britain - is going to find life very tough and will be under the microscope for all its practices not just some. Did you see the starbucks boycott - well you aint seen nothing yet.

It's a crying shame for anybody who bought these at £7 plus - still this is Britain and not eastern Europe and pesky stubborn shareholders in private companies can be a thorn in the flesh lol. Opinion polls (who bothers with them these days) suggest that a party keen to outlaw zero hours contracts and offer free tuition fees in England to many of spd employees are catching up) and the snp had better watch out in Scotland as there might just be a few disgruntled nurses etc. around and some folk might prefer free fees at Oxbridge or Newcastle even if they are on offer rather than St. Andrew's or Edinburgh or Glasgow. Interesting times indeed and nobody - even those who have departed lse for a rival chat platform and I don't mean dierich - have a scoobie how it is going to pan out. Good luck all.

Suddenly I see lol guy on these bbs bob the builder used to claim he could read the paperwork in Gogaburn at the bank lol and I can't even see as far as the castle from the high point far less see if Dobbie has stripes or spots on his tie. CPR needed for the whole of retail including spd Russell. I have scaled down to shares in 11 companies - most bearing divis and a few looking for a decent capital return so not looking for instant gratification. The summer starts early up here and I have applied for the postal vote and will not be doing anything from St Kilda or Unst but you once said to me you don't dip in the same sheep too often so crop rotation is the way forward and a book about Soapy Soutar and friends. Have a good summer.

Well I suppose we know from that buy that you are not the Cheshire cat Gerry. I am back up and running with new deb credit card but at least I didn't have an operation cancelled. Will the Debenhams flowers website start stocking or is it stalking Scots bluebells for Harry Lauder's Mary when it is back up and running and when will spd start buying its own shares again instead of everybody else's. Too busy with other stuff to really be too interested at the moment and will not even be around on 10th June for any possible lift so I'll leave you to your new bb wife for a while Gerry - should be some good deals on flowers to welcome back customers any day soon.

Definitely no suspicious activity on my account Gerry so I am in the clear but new cards being issued as a precaution so some minor inconvenience till they arrive so will have to become a kept woman until then as I'm not one for keeping thousands in my current account. Got 2 pairs of ankle boots last week from debs dot com - the best ones were full price but we have summer weather now for sandals.. How does the husband's joke go - it would have been better if my accounts had been compromised as a thief would be spending less. Do hope the flower website is back up and running as I like what they do but maybe offered as a one stop convenience rather than a money spinner?

Been busy all day but the problem was one for Ecomnova and debs have taken various reassuring actions. Heard from one of their satisfied elderly home insurance customers today so not all bad. Have a landmark birthday bouquet to buy but the business was already been given to a struggling florist so I'm alright Jack. Lovely hot weather here so a nice time to escape from stuffy chat rooms.

don't read this bb as I have made two howlers in the first line.

in deb's again as announced in this mornings rns. It seems I am interested in the same shares as Mike Ashley lol be good if they could rise like JD sports. I had orders with deb's flowers during the timescales quoted for Mother's day and birthdays but I am assuming I am not one of the affected customers as I have had no letter or email. When you see the number of customers quoted then it's little wonder high street florists are struggling as I am all to aware of but if it is only names and addresses then not worth getting paranoid as folk seem to these days and as long as they are selling nice flowers and don't put any big ugly thistles in with my order then I'm not too bothered, Wonder if shippy is a thistle or a rose sort of girl.

Sorry that song should have been Over the Castle St on the hill for you. Business is booming and a role has been found for me sweeping the floors and doing the tea trolley like the late Victoria Wood.

I was in Edinburgh climbing the crags and Arthur's seat looking for Dobbie and his brother-in-law as I had heard the former enjoyed a climb. Couldn't see them but must have had a good view of the Castle. Hope he is investing well for you. Look at this guy, made other men dye their hair ginger overnight, no student loan to pay back and I would plagiarise him any day https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6B9J3lEyffA I am not sure if you have moved far from the Cotswolds Spotty but have another little trip planned down your way to see the smallest city of Wells but no tickets for Glastonbury alas..

https://www.wise-owl.com/investment-education/what-is-the-purpose-of-a-share-buyback-and-how-can-shareholders-benefit-from-it Looks as though there is a bit of a supply and demand thing going on to me but, even if there isn't, I can wait as long as some others have been waiting for the £2.90 and some but in the words of Ed Sheeran everybody's talkin' bout exponential growth, the stock market crashing in their portfolios so maybe we need some love, understanding and positivity but what do I know. Insert the definite article and the swear word if you like in normal bb parlance.

I think hiking is the way forward like the poster who did the London marathon on St George's Day. Was on the West Highland Way and saw the walkers out with their St. Margaret's hospice vests but otherwise spoke to mainly English tourists who were all good people and observed the hello to everybody code of practice on the paths. Told an older guy from Bristol sitting on the Conic Hill that it was in the top ten beauty spots in the UK along with Cheddar Gorge and Stonehenge down his way and we both agreed that Snowdonia in Wales deserved the top spot. Feet sore but gonna buy a new pair of kinky ankle boots at debs before the cardholder discount expires tonight and tea tree moisturising boots from Homebargains tomorrow. I think Mike Ashley might have stymied me at spd but go away in May and get your kinky new ankle boots ready for the autumn now. Possibly a few punters in FBG would like their backs walked over. Think Gerry's decision to top up elsewhere might have been right at the moment. Unfortunately you need to watch debs like a hawk and that's not for me in the summer months. Good luck to all.

Was a good Easter! Had a lean time on the isle of Coll food wise but plenty of smiles!

Well I am sure we await your insight and that of shippys with baited breath - though we have been waiting a long time for shippys it has got to be said - in real time and not on a defunct bb that nobody reads but cut the hypocrisy about telling me not to post on Tesco if I have no open position. We have spotted your Achilles heel - your age! There are a few old dearies or one old dreary with the hots for you and you are obviously a bit sore that I'm not one of your fans. Remain very sore. Why don't you take your old lady somewhere for the bank holiday with all your huge wealth from never getting a trade wrong it would seem. We are setting out this morning so you'll be able to toss about as many insults as you like, use up your limited energy supply blowing your fuse and you will not have made a bean throughout it all. You don't seem to realise that a lot of folk only humour you and enjoy winding you up. Maybe see you Tuesday then.

Ah you mean the real old witch from the north. Sure Investors Chronicle have tipped debs more than once. Only hold some free shares for the div from an average of 2 trades a month. Think I have been much too open about my trading here maybe need to become more sly as Hottentot was suggesting others are lol.

Thought you would look in after that so I finished off an email to a friend and decided to check and voila. Insofar as brsn is concerned I mentioned it on this very bb to NKOTB the day it took a big drop and it started to rise so quickly that I decided I had missed the boat - plenty more fish in the sea. I did look in on the bb and found mulder to be one of the few posters with a clear unambiguous position in the stock and there was no hint or suggestion that you had bought just that you had sold yesterday. So mulder might be the one to follow eh. and seems to have a few buy recommendations on here at this sort of price. So we'll see eh but as I said to you today you've been sitting on the fence here so long you;ll have splinters in your backside. Nigh all.

released after close of play.

Hi there, thought you had me on filter guess you are logged out a lot of the time.. Look I remember you saying to me on the Tesco bb that I should stop posting there if I wasn't taking a position in the stock though I had held it in the past and was pondering a re-entry. You don't seem to have had any positions in Tesco yourself that you have declared on that bb for a long time if at all and it doesn't stop you posting there. So it looks like you have one set of rules for yourself and a different set for others. Say anything more and you will be grassing to lse admin first thing on Tuesday morning as is your wont as is engaging in endless pointless battles with folk on these bbs about your age and similar trivia. The Debenhams bb seems to have had its fair share of posters with no positions including it would seem yourself now. So I can only politely suggest to you that if you are not here to take the plunge one way or the other that you buzz off back to the Tesco bb which you have done a pretty good job of turning into a zone where nobody posts even though I see folk reporting buys of it on other bbs. Holiday weekend now so that's your lot from me better things to do with my time and have never bothered with the fleecebook and similar. I hope you find my forthrightness rather refreshing.
