That's true enough, fairdealer. The problem was, was that I wasn't holding out for more, I like(d) the company, and as I say it flatlined at the 90 odd p for ages, so wasn't really thinking about it too much and I wouldn't have too bothered if it had held at say 70p but still, schit happens, right?

Well, about 2 years ago it was I had them

All part of the fun, Andy. I had Crawshaws just over a year ago. I bought in at 65p and they hit nearly 90p putting me nearly �2k up. They stayed at that level for months, but dropped like a stone on a not particularly too bad rns. Had I sold at that point, I could have still walked away with a �900 profit but I didn 't and ended up losing that too, but you live and learn. I'm not bitter, as this is the nature of the beast, it happens and I am clawing my losses back via dividends here and elsewhere. All part of the learning curve, and they say that a harsh teacher is an effective one.

Nice one Cacher. I'll look out for that one. Hope I'm still able to focus when I see it though.

Agreed, I am expecting to free up some cash later this month and I intend on topping my small holding up. I bought in at an average of �1.35. Averaging that down a bit can't hurt.

*fairdealer. Think I've started my research too early.

*Brewdog. Bl**dy predictive text. That'll teach me to proofread

I've never heard of Breed of but take your point, fairtrader. Relating to our brands, I've tried Banks' beer, and Hobgoblin. I prefer Bank's myself, but that's just me. Think I'm going to have to do some research on our other brands too I think. It's a tough job, but someone's got to do it.

But who brews it? I don't think there is anything stopping us from brewing home brands for supermarkets though. Unless I've misunderstood your question : -)

To be fair, we have just come back from Zakynthos with Jet2. It's the first time we've used them as we normally use another airline, but we got a 4* hotel for �900 less than Thomson s wanted for our usual 3*. I found J2 to be professional enough, but that said, they do need to work on Customer service a little bit in my view. We have a son in a wheelchair, and another lad in a buggie and we literally had to ask J2 staff twice at Manchester airport and once again coming back home for assistance with check in and assistance in the aircraft. I was surprised it wasn't offered without prompting, but hopefully my email to them pointing this out might improve things going forward with them. A good holiday overall apart from this though.

I'm happy with that, a nice little too up is in order I think.

Do you think it will fall that low? Perfect top up opportunity if it does but still.

You believe that, do you? Opinion polls change as often as I change my socks.

And we have managed to hold on to much of yesterday's gain. I have no concerns over holding MARS at all.

Yes indeed. Interest rate are very poor atm. No good for savings as you get almost nothing back. Great for my mortgage though.

I think I may well reinvest here. Think I'll give it a month or so to see where the dust settles. Will post on here if/when I do, but gla to those already here.

How this sp has crashed so violently. I had some quite a few years ago and paid a smidge over £6 each for them. It's a shame to see First in this current state because despite it's problems, I quite like this Company. Train staff had always been nice to me, and the good divis they had were the main reasons I had invested. Good luck to all still in here, I hope your lot improves, and quickly.

Fingers crossed then, Fairdealer.

The share price making some recovery.
