Sean,
Have to admit i had to google “Chrystal palace Glasgow”
Turns out one of Glasgow’s best buildings (which will always be the Gardeners warehouse to me ) , is now a Spoons pub.
when i studied Architecture way back on 1982 this was Gardiner’s furniture warehouse - and our lecturers were proud to tell us Spotty youths something like ‘ first commercial use of cast iron facade in UK ‘ with lessons learned from London Chrystal Palace.
Happy to buy you a celebration cider and a single malt for me - before Christmas.
Reasons to be cheerful. …….1……..2………3……

Do you know the phrase …….” I don’t want to be out of this share in case a huge RNS lands”
I think TODAY is that day.
Good luck all

What i wouldn’t give for one of those wee pen thingies that Tommy Lee Jones had in MIB.
One quick “everyone look over here” and we could wipe this LSE board and start again.
We all wake up tomorrow (me slightly fuzzy from a few 10 Year old Rock Island Drams) - a Blend of 10 year old Single Island Malts - from Douglas Laing) and concentrate on :
A company that said they would do something - and did
No commentary on whether it was late or badly worded.
We could discuss - “is this idea new?”
We could debate is “this idea scalable?”
We could ponder “is the SP likely to rise from here - or fall”
And nobody would give a thought to “who said what and when or why” and who has the biggest Boabie - (not me).
Tomorrow could be a new day - if we want it bad enough.
Skint - (kinda) and enjoying the Blend of Single Malts and dreaming of what this Board could be with proper Admin.
I love when this share get back and above 0.001
Or simply 10
One less”zero” after the “point” to type before i find out how much i am down.
Nice to see it Green for a change - long time waiting.

Nice upbeat RNS today.
Columbia ........ Anza .......... “That drilling has recently commenced” .........!
I think this is news - apologies if it it isn’t and i missed an earlier announcement that the soil and rock sampling previously announced (lasted only 2 weeks) had finished and drilling started.
I am looking forward to more assay results and drilling updates in coming weeks
Could the dark days be behind us and we start a steady climb back up?
Skint
Just wondering aloud.
Maybe they left as they both hold multiple NED positions and ....... SYME is about to move into a much more intensive phase of activity. Perhaps they had time for sleepy (pre IM SYME) but couldn’t find time in diary for what is about to happen.
That is the glass half full version

Fluffy.
Let me make this easy for you.
It is NOT about me being an architect.
It is about you NOT being an architect. - but claiming a title you have no right to.
If i decided to start calling myself Dr Skint i think most would agree that i was a fantasist.
You are wrong - admit it and maybe 1% of the regulars on here may think you are less of a Diddy.
Skint.
Fluffy - now educated on the Legal use of the word “Architect” changes subject and has a drunken rant against a list of random “sun bingo” hot topic People / causes.
I counted 20
And two people instantly ticked up this loathsome individual.
Desperate for attention or what.
skint
Good question Gino 73.
We ( in my opinion wrongly) protected the title - architect.
Like it or not. [ and the IT profession certainly don’t like it] Legally the only people allowed to use the title architect are
Architect
Landscape architect.
Naval architect.
But anyone can design buildings - lodge planning and building control applications etc
If they are not registered architects they may not have PI insurance and often use titles like “Architectural” or “designers” to avoid legal issues.
In europe you often need a registered architects to stamp drawings and you have to pay for that
but in the UK - it is only the Title that is protected - not the job.
Our young students spend 7 years studying and have to sit professional exams and agree to uphold the standards and be bound by the rules of the ARB. Our Code Of Conduct.
it is therefore slightly annoying when IT people decide to use the title (for no other reason (as Fluffy has admitted) to increase salary - without the effort and dedication.
Which 56 weeks ago when this thread started- was my point.
I have Been invested in Solg for over 12 years - and looking forward to what could be our biggest week.
If it all goes to plan i can quit this BB and leave it to the half dozen “ self appointed losers” who can never admit they are wrong.

Sean,
Happy to meet up anywhere they sell Whisky.
I am "an old man" - happy with Pot Still / Bon Accord / Lismore / Horseshoe - but have given up on 'spoons app many times and made the servers go get a pad and a pen.
Nothing wrong with "some" of your posts and you deserve a tick up now and then "when you are behaving."
I will leave you to organise the Maserati parking and drinks for the £1.32 party.

I ticked up a post about Mr Magoo being short sighted, as i thought it was funny - then noticed it was from Seanhunter.
What is the protocol in an event like this?
Do I beat myself up - or with others come round to do that for me.
No hard feelings Sean Hunter - as a fellow Glaswegian - we can meet up at the Pot Still for a few Single Malts and i can give you a big hug.
I think you need a hug - so much angst.
Skint
I am delighted at the speed we are moving at in Argentina.
The only way to know if this JV is a good idea - is boots on the ground.
But i am surprised at 2 comments today about OMI getting to “production“
That would worry me as i am invested here in an “exploration and discovery company“. I am not here for production. SOLG fell down the production worm hole 4 years ago and look what that did to share price.
I hope OMI stick to what they are good at
all just MHO

Bhargav.
i know you are one of the long term good guys.
You flew the OMI flag in the dark 2p days.
Do you mind me asking “what did you hear today” that has turned you from “hang them all high - join my one man any Board Crusade “- to “i have bought a shed load of new shares”. With more positive vibes than Donald Sutherland in Kelly’s Heroes. (great film).
Not criticizing but the turn around is severe - the only “news” i have gleaned form today is “3 rigs”.
and a tick up in share price.
skint
I am still here bhargav.
Reminds me of the interminable 2p days when this was such an unloved share.
Back to a ghost town where you wonder if anyone cares.
At least when "great news is released" us long termers who watch every day should have plenty of time to jump on a rising SP - before the City boys read and understand the significance. I have some dry powder waiting if this happens.
When that day will be - who knows but I have bought far too many since the last crack at 40p .
My new break even is at 16.719 and if it reaches 39p (again) I will be significantly better off than last time - holding many more than before.
But will I be brave enough / disciplined enough to sell at least a few?
I guess it depends how fast it rises and the reason behind a rise.
Skint
Fun times watching “the happy hairy thing” flood the board with posts so that his response, (as Earthling) instead of Hairy (07:41), gets buried fast.
Oooooops.
skint
I bought some more for my isa today.
Feels like a good time
My history is there for anyone who cares enough to look.
From memory and after a few “home pours” of 10 year old Laphroaig - i have an average around 17p. i recently(?) averaged 12p and was daft enough not to sell (twice) when it tried to breech 40p
i now hold many more shares and will have more profit at 27p than i “missed out on at 40p” - if that makes sense.
Firm believer in the OMI story - just need Brad to write the next few chapters - and fingers crossed we don’t have an ending like series 8 of Game of Thrones.

Oh dear ....... it looks like there are people (and 6 who ticked the poor Geordies post up) who are thicker than an architect.
I said 6 months ago (true)
i said now have 4x what i intended to risk (correct)
can you not see ....... if the price has fallen 63pc (i will take your word for that)
then perhaps the “additional shares i purchased were (and stick with me please)
A. .........A great many more than my original purchase 6 months ago ( hence x 4 what i intend to risk) and
B. Have risen in value like the 80,000 i bought at 3.59 last Tuesday.
Do you want me to draw you a diagram that shows what “averaging down” means - i can even colour it in for you. ........Architects are good at coloring in. We get paid to do it.
Numpty.
skint
my point exactly.
Invested 6 months ago.
Back in profit at last.
I now have 4x the “ investment” i thought i would “risk”
Been reading this BB most nights but have to say. .....
I don’t have a scooby who “the good guys” are on here anymore.
It is so hard to keep track - everyone sounds like a drunk uncle at a wedding.

......... ahh.... haaaa....is comin’ like a ghost town.......
