Looks like Rolls Royce saved the day this week Asp1, otherwise it would have been a clean sweep with Lloyds failing on all counts. :-)

Eventually overcame my Pat1 syndrome earlier Patrao1 and added a few but only half the intended amount.

"ignore the idiots, most are still fighting the Brexit result".
I guess those idiots you speak of are the ones north of the border Rosewall. :-)

I believe he's been and gone once already today, I replied to a poster, can't remember the name but they have all been erased, probably DCB.

I see Trump wants to delay the November election, I bet he does, he's a slippery fcuker.
It's a bit like Lloyds, don't sell now, just hang on a bit longer, it'll all come good.

Wrong BB, try the RBS/NWB they already own 62%, why would they want Lloyds?

DT, if you post s.h.i.t.e. expect some crap back. Better still try reading the articles you post or if you don't like the response, use the filter.

You write whatever you want DT, I have the right of reply but like I said, I just thought an article out of the blue about the Chinese sending seed's to unsuspecting Americans was a bit odd.
BTW, what's failed.

Well the seeds thread carried on a bit but the subject changed.
DT, the agricultural (PP mainly) posts are usually weekends where anything goes.
I just thought with banking results at this time a reference to Chinese seeds out of the blue seemed a bit odd.

"The USDA said on Tuesday it was collecting the seeds and would test them to determine if they were a concern to agriculture or the environment".
That's good to know DT, but I don't expect many on here are are that interested.
You could try being a bit more selective when picking out negative articles.
Just saying.

I know it's a different animal but BARC 6 month results, however you view them down over 4.5% ATM with lloy following.

" The US itself has huge internal social problems. I note the presence of NFAC armed militia at a recent US demonstration"
Have another think about that, they may have social problems which country doesn't. The US troubles regarding the NFAC are all political.

Good to see this BB come alive this weekend.
Various topics, good banter, a few laughs interspersed with a Lloyds topic that has usually been discussed before.
Nothing much to say here until Thursday imo.

Seems there's more gullible fools like me, over 17 million I believe, around 52%, it's called democracy.

Which ever way you look at it snige, it's bad management. Nothing lasts forever and Brussels were not happy with their corporation tax rate and as a result are looking at ways to introduce a Euro wide band.
Just more interference from the unelected. Apparently Ireland will probably be the most negative affected country in the EU next year.
I expect there was a mixup now they're taking it in turns to govern, but coalitions can do that sometimes.

Agree with that sentiment Pnp.

Nothing bitter about it mick, the only bitter people are the sad remainers
The birthplace maybe wrong but the article is correct.
As you probably know, after the decision to raise the EU Covid relief fund on the open market puts the Eurozone on the first step to federalism. Some would say they broke the rules, there's a lot of unhappy Europeans out there.
Not me I'm happy we're out of it, just in time so it seems.
You really must get that chip off your shoulder it's dragging you down. There's one thing worse than a bitter man, and that's a bitter OLD man and as you yourself have said you're getting on a bit.

I see Pnp, your fellow countrymen are going some way to fill the monetary void now we're not contributing the the corrupted club that call themselves the EU.
Ireland will pay vastly more into new EU budget than it gets back and they're not happy about it, but typically it's not being widely reported in the Republic.
The so-called “frugal” countries, Denmark, Germany, the Netherlands, Austria, and Sweden, have all secured rebates on their contributions to the EU budget, but not Ireland, seems they forgot to ask, you gotta laugh, €16 billion more to pay than they receive.
Meanwhile the UK is €80 billion up already.
That's a lot of popcorn lol.

broke $1900 earlier.

Despite CNA's long term downtrend, I have made a few bob on them, sold a few this morning but still holding just over 71k shares.

P.S. for all the sado's here, yeah its a Lloyds BB......so what.
