20th November. Thought by some that there could be volatility in the lead up thereto. lol knew there had to be a reason for the heavier traffic on the precious metals' bbs.

Tom78 - You weren't ruling out £5 around this time last year as well. When is this Swiss thing happening buyerbeware is it later this month.

You 17:44 can you confirm the source of that post please so that readers can determine how much weight to attach to it or otherwise. Pretty sure I know the source and if I'm right they did have to apologise profusely for "speculating" wildly about a £3.40 takeover price for enrc which probably resulted in an artificial spike to the share price for an afternoon only and no doubt was responsible for encouraging a lot of disappointed buyers atb.

If I had got £3.40 for my enrc in the takeover as some were speculating then I'd be better off than Ashley and not needing to trek to Vienna on Monday morning with a lot of other boring investment bankers lol

Lego hope you enjoyed your cruise. I can't have any special brew until I have taxied the kids home safely. LOL I've bribed them to come out with me tomorrow on a fun lol educational outing to our dynamic earth. Difference of opinion in this house over barc but neither of us complaining about today. LOL I think you might be my brother who's just gone for a snooze back to England on Sunday. Goodnight.

Think I've found the source for your piece on the bulletin board. If I'm right then I've never rated them much after the overestimated takeover price suggested for enrc one Friday afternoon last year atb

Bizarre and inconsistent that the article is quoting Deutsche bank as saying "While a majority of EU states have already exempted online betting from VAT, the new rules are expected to affect Germany, which provided more than a quarter of BWin’s first-half revenue. “We would estimate 12 per cent of BWin’s German revenue was online gaming and that the group would incur €13m to €15m VAT tax pre any offsets or a 15 per cent downgrade to next year’s consensus [earnings] forecasts,” said Deutsche Bank" and yet Deutsche issue a reiterated buy recommendation today with a target price of £1.21. The article is also saying that this mornings recorded buys at 98p were sells. In any case, this EU VAT rule change is not new news and would already be factored into the price. I'll be keeping an eye on the holdings rnses here and, of course, the brokers' recommendations. Few brokers have it down as a sell. Time will tell.

Thanks for the info and Deutsche having a buy recommendation out today! malta my brother is just back from a week's break there and was on the phone to me today looking for me to extend his holiday by putting him up for the weekend. Only been once - berthed at Valetta and everything was shut including the war museum on a Sunday should have gone to the silent city but had a nice glass of Margarita instead. Frankie the cabbie, could have been doing with you today, daughter at orthodontist, back and forth to school, hallow'een party, son paying for his first solo holiday at a traditional travel agency, off to footie and Halloween party later. I feel like Joe le taxi or whoever it was. Not really the weather for a Mararita here. You're not Jaimie Ward's dad are you - would like his autograph. Have a good weekend both.

This isn't my usual type of share at all but somebody asked why the big sell off. All I could see here were massive buys first thing this morning at 98p. Strange witch's brew as the late Jack Bruce might have played or have I been at the special brew!

We're not allowed to give out the live prices on here but fairly flying now. Off on my broomstick to look at new furniture.

Together forever - yes indeed.

Good one and share price reacting well at the moment. GLA

Do you see these low silver prices as a buying opportunity here Big Loss? Pretty tough going but still paying a divi and I've certainly got this down as being more of a buy than say the London's burning one was.

Never gonna give you up and Roy Orbison running scared lol. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UBunbhUb3e8 Newcastle United knocking Man city out the CUP and Rangers to meet Celtic in the semis of the Scottish league CUP and shares doing not too badly over the pond tonight and it's not even the fireworks night yet or Christmas.

and don't have money on my mind http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gVa5HUGGPmo I'm not really one for taking part in these surveys. Don't have the time and don't know if it's always the best way of getting accurate customer feedback. But this is for free: was out earlier this evening looking for Hallow'een treats, Advent calendars and to start my Christmas cupboard off and did indeed find the tht shutters down as my mum-in-law had said in Silverburn. Asked the waiter in La Tasca what the score was well several scores to be honest. He didn't know what the story was with thorntons. Would have been amazed if Glasgow Silverburn had had the chop and came home and checked the website which says closed from 26 October until 1 November for a store refresh. Very odd time of year to do this if you ask me and I have seen other mums buying their advent calendars already. Anyhow positive thing was that I discovered new tht franchises within greetings cards shops in the Ayrshire towns where thorntons branches had previously closed down i.e Irvine and Kilmarnock so I supposed some good did come of it but I've bought Where's Wally and other advent calendars tonight from Marks as I had no idea what was going on.

Only the Jags can prevent Celtic meeting Rangers ( who qualified last night) from meeting in the Scottish league cup semi -finals and a win for Newcastle against Spurs at the weekend so should chalk up a few shirt and strip sales.

Didn't know any of that. At least she went out with a bang in what must have been the extravagance of a pink coffin - sounds a bit like Barbara Cartland with her love of pink which most girls grow out of by 10. I suppose I would rather have had a decent salary from Disney while I was still around to enjoy it. He had Scots blood in his veins though and was maybe rather canny with the bawees. We used to joke what's the difference between Walt Dinsney and Bing Crosbie - Bing Sings and Walt Disnae. Moving swiftly on... Lord Grantham's mother that Miss Jean Brodie/Maggie Smith is a right mean Scot as well. Says if the servants must have a life too then they should do it preferably on their day off. Mrs. Patmore, the cook, has bought the house with outside toilet and Carson, the butler, is suggesting to Hughsie the housekeeper that they should follow suit so they have somewhere to live when they retire from the tied accommodation and a rental income beforehand but hughsie is not sure she will live to see retirement and would she not want to return then like many exiles to Scotland and roam the glens. On the alice in wonderland theme and sweet shops themes, I'll be going out this evening to see if the branch near me has been altered as I'm sure the sound of drills and hammers was heard but not worth doing that during what would have been normal opening hours in my view as these shopfitters will work through the night. Lego probably cruising the Med during the English school hols and he claims to cruise the reduced aisles looking for bashed tins of baked beans for those bairns http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fOE4mMcyG68 lol

Well spotted and the first to do so. Will keep an eye out for your future posts around the various bbs. The strategy here as you'll know has been to close down unprofitable stores and supply products through other outlets. I'm not a fan of the chocolate santas sold by the Germans so bonz will be hoping tht can kickstart the revival of the British supermarkets no doubt atb.

Price has been moving up with some big buys since the rns announcing that the ims would be released on Hallow'een. Nice increased divi here already banked.

Back in the USSR, money for soap/dope, how do you sleep at night or salt water wells in my eyes when I read QPP. Mum in law says the shutters were down at thorntons silverburn, one of the few remaining branches near me. Said to her that it's a bit small so are they moving to bigger premises there and going for a café - would make sense to me but busy time of the year Hallow'een to be doing alterations. Going to get myself down there tomorrow to see what's going on. Remember my favourite member of staff is in that shop or has she got promotion.
