You've obviously never negotiated with the East?

and punctuation.

DW may not be patient, but I suspect that Indonesia is not a country that is quick by our standards, so expect decisions to take a little longer than we would expect.

Ricardo success is secured by being independent and confidential as well as technically superior. Its clients are therefore secure and know their secrets will not be divulged unless a client allows publicity on any project. There are several important clients who have allowed that over many years Therefore I can never see the case for Ricardo to be taken over.

What a waste of the lives of those four, while they upset the lives of so many investors. They behave like little children. They should grow up and help people. How sad.

get carter, I'm sorry, I wouldn't trust anything Halifax do, I have several reasons to cross swords with them. My CEB are still on my brokers portfolio.

Don't believe these people one bit; up, down, good, bad; they have to say something to get people to listen to them so they get paid. By their statements I bet they didn't listen to the teachers when at school because they thought they knew better. Oops, sorry, they're still at school. Just stay with CEB and DW, it makes life a lot less complicated. I'm glad most investors are holding on.

Oh, dear, DW mentioned he wasn't happy with unregulated twitter comments. Well do very well anyway without all the silly comments elsewhere.

Eton, no, prefer to give my grandson a rounded education. Go to my old school; first school to fly their own designed aeroplane!

Chris oil was probably playing sandcastles in his shorts when North Sea Oil was found.

Smarmy is my take, a person to stay well clear off. He's now too well known to take seriously

Some days ago someone said that CEB and SER were very similar companies. This week someone said you would be mad to buy into SER. Now gotabesirius says anybody selling CEB today must be mad. Gosh, I didn't realize they were so similar!!! I'm very sorry for people caught up in the toxic SER debacle but the writing was on the wall months ago. There are no concerns for holding here, the future path is very clear with clear stated objectives and targets.

No, no, mirror, he's more likely to talk about where they're going to place the bicycle racks and what colour they will paint the well heads and how many left handed wheelbarrows they will need. Just up your street, you should go. Come on now, he'll be talking to intelligent people. You just don't have the measure of what's going on here

Hi Forrestdreams. The MM's seem to be holding this around 0.97 +/-0.05 about (!), maybe a slight drop. I'm happy with that as nothing is changing at the moment; maybe the slight drop reflects the administration spend. I'm taking the opportunity to top up on the lows while/when I can. I don't think there will be many/if any opportunities left soon. Trading a high on one share against a low on another is a good juggling exercise. Keeps the brain working anyway. Good luck

Goggins, 6 weeks may or may not be a long time for negotiations to come to fruition in Indonesia. I've never dealt there. My experience is with countries East of here, like India and China where preliminaries, contract discussion with many options and final agreements can take months to finalise and sign off. Western countries; USA, Canada, Europe etc. are far quicker. One/two guys from the USA or Canada can discuss a massive contract over 2/3 days and make an instant decision to sign. China bring a delegation of 15/20 people, including the man responsible for the money and a party member to ensure no one says anything they shouldn't, munch over everything for a couple of weeks, change the scope of work several times, knock the price down to the price they originally had in mind, then return and you don't hear anything for a few months. One day you might get a contract signed up. However they do give excellent presents when they have your confidence. On the other hand..... India, you don't get anywhere unless you've greased the palm of the commissionaire on the door and the secretary to the chief engineer with English china and contributed to the Chief Engineers rose garden. So I'm content here to wait 'till the traditions and philosophies of this particular country play their course. Very frustrating for DW I expect, but he knows the people and would understand their philosophies. So please don't knock the delays; they just happen. Unfortunately some punters and certainly the MM's think everything will drop into place immediately.

they most often are. Par for the course. Can't rely on indicator ever

He's certainly well wound everybody up. Gone quiet now, probably gone back for some more Dad's Army episodes for ideas. Spell 'categorically' Pike; sorry Jas.

Tellingporkies. I love your three contradictions; at least, I also know what the title stands for - Fairly Fresh Student

Despite all odds, this seems to be holding up longtime quite nicely, thank you. I'm adding nice chunks as the cash becomes available

. Jas, your post at 14.26 was spot on, just like any other normal well run company. They all have to do these things.. So I'm pleased to agree with you and it highlights why this is a company I wish to stay with. While it's stuck around 1p I try to buy as many as I can as my money becomes available, and I do hope you are trying to do the same. I've been here many times before and I can see where this one is going.
