It produces £45,298 for the coy. Now we know that there are exactly 304,028,656 ordinary shares issued as of today. The next matter to be settled is just how many warrants there really are. We will probably have to wait until the annual report to know this. I am hoping that the person who has taken up the options has done so in order to sell them and thus will depress the market enabling me to top up, chance would be a fine thing!

substp, sorry I am getting a bit lost here, are we now looking at skin as just another surface thus it would have a cosmetic application? Also: Your posting about VAL seems to have 'frightened the horses'!!!!!!!

The shares keep falling away so am minded to top up if they would just go a little lower.

GedW, I really do hope so, that would be just wonderful news. How can we find out for sure? Ideas please.

Nice one substp!

Not convinced that this is the moment to sell, am planning to double up if they would just go a tiny bit lower. Hopefully ihavenoclue is right and the perception that they are overvalued will go beyond these footprints.

fillyone - very seriously, it cannot be enough to buy shares just because a couple of other people are enthusiastic about them. In my own case if the coy disappeared under the waves tomorrow it would really not make the slightest difference to me, the bills can still be paid and so on. The real interest that this company has is that it is seemingly on a revival course, please note the word seemingly. Whether this is really correct and just how well or badly things are going may become a little clearer when the results come out and then possibly something more at the AGM. It really is a total gamble. Please do not take anything I write as a buy (or a sell) recommendation, it is not and nor is it intended to be. You simply have to DYOR and weigh the whole thing up yourself, perhaps you have some sort of financial adviser to talk to. After forty years of watching shares I realise that money is hard earned and very easily lost. Was it Woody Allan who said of stockbrokers that they invest your money until there is nothing left? Buyer beware!

Anywhere between Land's End and John O' Groats should be just fine! My own dentist goes to conferences the whole time so as to be 'up' on all latest developments, thus I was a little surprised that he didn't know about it. He indicated that for this type of product he gets a whole range from one manufacturer (one-stop shopping) and this includes the present alcohol based wipes that he uses. It could be that it is not enough to have a stand alone product and that it will only be bought as part of a total range. If you are at your dentist anyway, it has to be worth bringing TruKleen to their attention by asking if they use it, particularly since it has now been approved for use in the States.

Thinking about it, if HCEG footprinters and shareholders asked their dentists about TruKleen wipes it should be be possible to get a bit of a buzz going.

TruKleen wipes. Yesterday I asked my dentist if he used these. He said that he was unaware of the product but liked the idea that these wipes do not contain alcohol. Clearly there is yet a lot to be done, even around Wimpole Street which has a large concentration of cutting edge(!) private dental practitioners. I wonder just how good TruKleen marketing really is.

$30M raised, Zijin takes about 2.5M shares and thus keeps its holding whole @20.3%. Issue price £1.25 a share. New issue represents 13% of enlarged capital of company. All that needs to happen now is for business stability in SA to continue, the platinum price to hold and for Ridge to produce tonnes and tonnes of the stuff - simple really! Meanwhile the recently inflated s.p. is falling like a stone and getting closer to the new issue price. Now we know what has been going on here.

They are 6.25 - 6.75p. Also not tempted to double up just at this moment, wait and see.

Hi GedW. In fact I have now sold every share I owned that has Russian interests. These guys really do not want any foreigners controlling anything within their borders. You make a success there in minerals or some such and then they come along and impose crippling fines for supposed infringements of some law or another. This makes investing there seemingly untenable. It is quite clever really; get overseas people to build your economy and then show them the airport. What is even cleverer is to get yourself in a position where you hold the key to Europe's energy supplies so if they moan too much you just cut them off. Whilst I don't particularly like Putin at the same time I do recognise that he has to get Russia functioning no matter what, i.e. from an economic p.o.v. In fact in his shoes I would probably do the same. What we need to do without delay is to build nuclear power stations. When the lights start going out across Europe how many people will still support the Green parties? Not too many I wager! Even coal could make a comeback in those circumstances, never mind the oil price, that could easily go beyond $200. Scarey stuff!

Another really big week of trading, 3000 shares changed hands! The last three months have been pretty dead. Oh for some positive action here!

If Reuben Bros get Northern Racing it is said that they will fold it into Arena. If the Reubens only hold 14% of Arena - which doesn't seem much for heavy hitters like them - does this mean that by law they will have to bid for Arena, or what? Please can anyone say what % of Arena will be owned by the Reubens should this deal take place. Thanks.

Thanks Pat, it may be the other way around though. The MMs could picking up stock because they feel that good news is coming and they want to be 'long'. It is impossible to know one way or t'other. The only options are to ride it out until an answer comes or quit. I intend to remain for the time being if only because my cost price on the warrants is almost nothing, also because HCEW is my 'share of the year'.

Two people gave 147p earlier and the stock closed at 143-5p. Pure magic as far as I am concerned. Perhaps 175p next week, surely this has to end somewhere?

fillyone, often it is just plain old inefficiency.

It is good news that approval has been given for TruKleen wipes and hopefully they will bought by everyone. What is of concern is the share price which appears to be locked into the 5-6p range, it is all becoming a little dull. Perhaps the market is just not interested until some major event happens such as a profit revival and a good forward looking statement. Yawn!

Take over talks denial.The company has made a statement denying that they are in discussions, the shares fell, now they are going up again. Just because they are not talking to anyone it does not mean that someone is not accumulating without the coys knowledge - does it?
