With a little therapy and some good counselling I am sure it will fade, as these things do. Reminds me of a tale that in the Court of Elizabeth 1, a courtier bowed to Her Majesty and accidentally 'peeled one off', as the polite saying goes. So overcome with shame was he that he left the Court and by way of atonement he embarked on a series of perilous voyages and plundered many exotic places to gain riches for the Crown. He returned years later as a hero, and presented himself at Court , whereupon on seeing him, the Queen's opening words were 'Good day my Lord. we have forgot the fart.'

Hi Bunsie - I've managed to calm down from my shock at the post you referred to, I should manage to regroup and compose myself for next week. I'm just a bit of a snowflake at heart, as Jonesy will tell you.

Next week looks promising, so it doesn't look like dp's 'special sock' is going to get much use over the weekend. Maybe a good opportunity to give it a much-needed wash.

DP I bet that's brought a lump to your trousers eh?

Considering Robert Peston's relationship with the government I would doubt he has any loyalty to anyone involved in the Oxford project, and given the nature of his journalism he's as likely to be setting them up for a fall if he can, rather than having an eye on ultimate success.

Somebody try to catch the teddy and give it back to him please.

If that's objective, then I'd hate to go drinking with you and Knowlesi when you were in a pessimistic mood.

So does this signal some broad sentiment that in the next few weeks there may well be a net gain in the sp on overall constructive news?

We seem to be lacking the Monday morning sells that have been a feature recently. Change of sentiment perhaps in relation to expected developments?

Sometimes there's money to be made when you're just going through the motions....

Not wanting to drag scancell down a pessimistic 'plan b' route any further than has already been attempted, but cancer in pets will be a huge market given the involvement of insurers who would I am sure strike a profitable deal with drug manufacturers. Also my daughter is a specialised equine vet tells me that a very high proportion of greys develop melanoma around the anus (genuinely, not just a description of certain posters) which can only be treated by excision and hope and can shorten the life of a potentially very profitable competitor or a brood mare by years. A melanoma cure just for that would be seriously commercial and potentially very lucrative even before the spolit pooch domestic market for household pets.

DE also bought a million shares at 7p not that long ago, so he's either got a financial death wish or he sees something promising. I would suspect the latter, although he is probably more of an investor than a trader, which may explain a lot here lately.

Mushroom? That's what makes you a 'fun guy.'
I'll get my coat....

Poor old mice get put through a lot, and not just in labs. Show business takes its toll on them too. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=RDsaY10AWXLIY&feature=share&playnext=1

I had an Ichimoku once, but the doctor gave me some antibiotic cream which sorted it out nicely.

Hope it gives the right link. If not, it's on Scancell's twitter page thing anyway.

Agreed - it's perhaps a case of not what you do, but how you do it!

It's all very easy to get snowflakey over America, but can you imagine the reaction here if this country produced a viable vaccine and promptly announce they were shipping most of the available production to France or Korea? Safeguarding one's own citizens is to be expected.

That's about as clear and unequivocal a reply as you can get!

I can't be bothered to go back to Thursday/Friday's posts, but there were entries about notice to grant patents relating to moditope as I recall. Can anyone confirm that this is the final rubber stamp on the 'land grab' to which RG referred some long while ago? And is it more than coincidence that the movement of MOD1 into trial has come about at the same time?
