That's funny .I was also at the AGM and the hall was almost empty.
They got the HO full license today.
The disappointed IPO sellers may have sold out leaving only those for the long haul.
Yes,I guess a full HO license will be required before CEL production team can fire the starters gun.
I was the only ouside shareholder at the AGM.
New firm waiting at the starting block.
Yes, waiting for go ahead with MHRA.
Yes, we are consuming the local Tuscan Brunello. Back home tomorrow. Atm, Costain is but a distant irritation in my portfolio but I will sit it out.

Cycling in Tuscany this week - Montelcino.
AGM in 45 mins. Hope the vibes are good.
Shame about the Southampton Fawley job going to TW. They should have done a JV and reduce the risk on this large job.
Go to the post with the Costain icon. More contributors
'Nod and a Wink ' might be driving it, learning that they might not need to borrow, hopefully.
Sure, Roguemale1.
Ah, you have some Civil Engineering background, I sense.
My father was RE and FICE often in Africa on water treatment works.
I have some professional knowledge of Costain having worked for them in a contractual capacity for 30 odd years. I only got involved with Costain's shares during their share placement. At around 33p I swooped and over three days or so I made around 175k profit.
Couldn't believe it. Then I got greedy and have been snared ever since. I am going to have to it this out, water mark being 77p. My future lies in Costain coming back to their senses.
Thanks Roguemale1. I think it will be worth going to has hopefully one might get a better insight of their direction of travel. I still think COST is a pent up spring waiting to be unleashed. For any brave man wishing to come on board, the last few months would have been a fantastic entry level.
I used to be a bit of a Lloyds Bank fan, but I think we are entering a bleak period for UK PLC. It could just be that Costain could just buck the trend given that it has been on rock , rock bottom for quite a while.
Btw, I used to be a Jobber sprog on the SE floor in the early Eighties. Then, I was dicing with the likes of Turner and Newall and Laker Airways. One day a pile of Freddie's girls hit the floor on a share promotion. Another time I got lock jaw when the Queen Mother came over and started a wee conversation. I never liked that place although it was before the Big Bang.
Thanks Roguemale 1
Have been thinking about it as I live near Canary Wharf. What day is it and time? Do I need to register? How do I do it?
I know it seems daft but I have never been to one.
We really need to see a rerating upwards soon otherwise I may have to head towards Beachey Head, lol
Hopefully they remember that the objective is to make money

Well, thanks for your frank story, but I am in bigger #hit
Jargonpain.
I have that funny feeling that as Costain being rather unsexy, will catch the market out sooner or later who regret how this stock was completely off their radar.
Costain is slowly reinventing themselves and they do have a great project legacy.
Roguemale1. Quite right. Nuclear power plants would be build to exacting specifications. There is nothing like a blank canvas here. It is 'Mechano' construction and so no contractor can go off message, and certainly there are no imponderables such as the Welsh Road that had major unforeseen geological issues.
Mentom, your last comment seems more like a casual opinion that an exact fact.
Costain were involved at Hinkley Point. I can't see Costain stumbling around as they have done on the latest debacles. They won't be gambling on making future ****ups
It could so easily stem from an employee with a grudge. A non-storey if ever I saw one.
correction. Five hundred thousand pounds worth.
