......... one would probably be pleased to make 20 % / 30% and absolutely delighted to make 40 % / 50% .So here we are at the 11th hour of 2020 , if one was a Jan 1st LTH contemplating around 2000%,
and for those that jumped on board during the year still experiencing mind blowing 3 figure %age gains. You will probably have to live another 100 years to find a similar investment train. Not only to find the train, but one with such a lovely bunch of highly experienced and knowledgeable fellow investors on board, with such an amazing flow of fact, data, perception, advice , analysis, access to the global satellites , charm, attitude , kindness, and support.
It is not going to be quite so astounding for 2021, but, there is still quite a bit of the journey left. We have found the gold /copper, and all the machinery is in motion to extract it, and to extend the boundaries of a massive global deposit.
If one took the not unreasonable view that one year from now, with a continuing flow of pretty good news from some of the GGP prospects, an increasing Havieron MRE up to maybe 15Million oz., the POG on a not unreasonable track up to $$ 2500 , some early gold production, some outside JV approaches for one or two of the GGP prospects, just one really good Tier 1 surprise explosion, ............. and we could be looking at a 2022 NYE COP of say £1-20 / 40p. , then to follow our current year 2000 % , we could be appreciating a 300% for 2021.
Of course that for the LTHs would amount to 6/7000% for the two year span.
And that would be amazing, and not unreasonable.
So my simple investment brain, what is left of it, says that whilst it may well make sense to topslice a bit to play around the market with, GGP still represents an incredibly sound investment, and I have no intention of jumping ship for some time to come.
See you all on the board next year.

@@@ Jet Some would say that every birthday at 81 is a good one . But the family genes indicate that I will still be feeding this board for another 19 years . GGP SP will be up around £20-00 then.
Tig

@@@ Sikulu...... I might have taken you to Twickenham,.......but I didn't manage to climb Kilemanjaro with you. I failed you there.
Thanks all for your good wishes. I had hoped that my mate GH would have sent me an RNS today to allow me to celebrate properly. If it is to be December, then it will have to be in 8,5 hours time.
Fingers Xssed, and sincere very good wishes , and prosperity for 2021 and beyond. 2020 has been mindblowing, I have made some very nice friends through the Stag Gang, - and hopefully a few many more , when Boris lets me organise another riverside meet when the sun next shines.
POG just up to $$$ 1895 - so the omens are good.
Tig

I have to say that I am quite amazed that anybody who has gone so far as to buy any shares, opened a share account, opened an ISA, or any similar transaction , asks anyone on this board about how to organise their financial arrangements without first discussing things with their stockbroker, their accountant, their bank manager, or using google to get a full , accurate, precise, detailed account of the limits and legalities of what they are letting themselves in for.
With the numbers of users on this board, whilst a %age are almost certain to give the correct advice, there are an awful lot more who are likely to give either confused or totally incorrect advice.
Best advice ; first apply to the proper and known professional sources.
It will cut out out an enormous amount of drizzle on the board. No offence intended to anyone.

Meant to say driving around in their new Qashqais ( electric - auto - hydrogen ) , or gas guzzling Aston Martins.
Tig

For all of those with a kind and philanthropic approach to IHT and life in general , and having had what is probably the most wonderfully accumulative asset profit growth in their lives, it is also possible and easy to encash from either existing ISA's or standard share accounts and transfer the appropriate sums into their childrens or their grandchildrens ISA's. Just as good as keeping it all locked up in your own , and just consider how loved and discussed you will be when your grandchildren are driving around Oxford or St Anrews, Durham or Cambridge, in their forthcoming Uni years. And well beyond.
Just a thought. It is all writ in my own agenda.
Tig

@@@ Kempey.You have until April 4th to do the buy / sell transaction, so just pick your timing. Do it after an RNS. The world is never perfect.
Tig

@@@ my very good friend Dimv. Thank you for your kind thoughts, and brightening the tedious lockdown tedium of a poor OAP.
I had a gas /electric bill from SSE this morning and discovered that I was overpaid by £1500-00 , and having stimulated SSE, I now have a present of a cheque on the way to me.
I also have a bottle of Prestige Speyside Scallywag Malt, in a presentation box ,engraved with me on the bottle, on its way from Wigan to me ( thanks Dim , you will be one of the first to taste it )). The postcode for Prestige also includes the letters AU.
Happy Days - but a shame that there is no Scallywag RNS. That would have been icing on the cake, - and GH did promise it in 2020.
Luv to all - pariicularly Panama , Fred ,and Clairabella, - who also bring light and happiness into my life.
TIG.
How symboilc can one be.

In my view , finding another GGP is a 1 in a 1000 chance. Highly unlikely - virtually impossible.
In doing so you are likely to lose quite a bit of cash.
Like every investor in GGP who has made a bit / a lot / one hell of a lot, you cannot help but think about that "" next GGP "". I d, we all do. Forget it.
Now that you have accumulated a goodly pile so far , review your opportunities;
A. Invest in some nondescript , illiquid, low penny Market Cap, heavily in debt, living in hope..........
B. Slap some money into the top 300 recovery plays in Tech / Construction / Mining companies / Banks ( selective ) / Pharma / ??, and you will probably do quite well - 20% - 30% - 40% gains and maybe some divis.
C. Stay right where you are. A year of drilling results with excellent prospects. Maybe the odd humdinger and occasional duster, possible takeover ( big pennies there ), some early gold production, an asset sale with a special divi, revelations of Havieron MRE 4.2M oz ........6M oz.......12 M oz...........15 Moz ( a near certainty somewhere along that line ). ?? 19 more prospects to be investigated in the largest. newest, unexplored , most magnificent goldmining area on the globe , in a secure and stable political environment . To be explored by a no debt, well financed, experienced explorer , run by brilliant managers / directors, in harness with one of the best mining companies in the world .
OMG - such a difficult decision. What should I do ??? I must consult Dimvestor and Ipad .
Tig

The Ernest Giles hubbub as now subsided , and I apologise to all for becoming alcoholically over stimulated, resulting in a record Xmas Day post box of 79 ???.
But I am still curious as to who and why a dated ( 24-12-2020 ) article appeared out of the blue . Its only good result was to fill my lockdown Xmas Day in between cooking the sprouts and making the brandy custard.
Scallywag will bounce the SP up anyway ,assuming the promise of a 2020 .December RNS is met, and GGP are not in the habit of breaking promises.
A great 2021 to all
Tig

@@@@Bamps -- Forgive me Bamps if I have been premature and dragged you screaming from your family festivities. As it was dated yesterday, it never occurred to me that it was anything other than genuine.
Back to the Black Pig Australian Sauvignon. Don't touch the Macron product any more. An OZ trade deal should see their prices drop soon.
Tig

The article is dated 24/12/2020 has to be new?????
Tig

@ Aurora 1 - a sort of pre JV/Newmont $$$$'s /. GGP known data, /NM first refusal, / nil GGP $$$.
But NM know what they are about , and obviously GH has had his head down with them, and we know that there is lots of shallow gold in EG, / and if there are some good indications in the next 6 months - whooooosh .There has to be an RNS next week, and my alcohol induced perceptive and discombobulated calculation tells me that my forecast for a 40p SP this year is a near certainty.
Or have I drunk too much ????????
Tttttiig

As I am sitting here with a Xmas Day consumption of alcohol, and have been taken by surprise by this announcement, and have not got a clue what an ACCESS DEAL is ???? - is it a variation of a Newmont JV ????? on Ernest Giles. EG ,on my understanding is a possible Tier ! project ??? Will this zoom the SP on Tuesday morning, - was this expected ??? Have you had your supper yet Bamps /Hydrogen. If so concentrate on the important matters in life and offer a little guidance -----please.
Is this another unexpected Xmas present. GH has commented , but it must be a probable RNS .
No mention of $$$$$'s , but I would have guessed that it would be an SP energiser.
I just do not know . HELP !!!
Tig

I have just watched too - as much for the minis and the mini skirts as the au.
That haul only represented a few weeks mining.
Tig

TIGGERMAN WISHES ALL HIS BOARD GOOD FRIENDS A GREAT XMAS AND THE MOST PROSPEROUS 2021.
GGP KEEPS GIVING
TIG

Proactive should be a mandatory listen for all.
13 minute interview to comment on global mining and he devotes most of it to GGP - past - present - and more importantly the future.
Alistair Ford is a sound man. GGP still has a long way to go.
Do listen to it - it will reassure your faith, not that mine needs reassuring.
A confident Tig

@@@ Dave Rec Many thanks Dave Rec....... But just to say we are not a closed secret society, and once normality is restored , and we are able to restore the financial fortunes of the Stag on the River at Godalming, there is an open invitation to any one who lives reasonably locally ( or who is quite prepared to pay for a night in the splendid accommodation - should be able to afford it )
and wants to join one of the nicest bunch of guys it has ever been my humble privelege to meet, - then they will be more than welcome. I intend to resurrect a meet at the earliest opportunity - probably late Spring as things seem at the moment. And there are strong rumours that GH wants to buy Paddy and I a drink.
Anyway, I am being vaccinated today, and I guess many more or most of you will have been by then
so we should be a SAFE community.
An RNS and 50p by Jan 1st.
Tig

Merry X.mas to all is taken for granted
More importantly .....
A VERY PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR
TIG

Panama I was concerned that you had rushed off to S . America to meet a new Senor Panama without telling me.
But seeing my name .
..No. 1 on your list of thank your has restored my confidence and calmed my nerves.
Look forward to your return. HAPPY Xmas.
