Yep-have just chased them for explanation.

Tricky-no prob and thanks

Hi Laz. Fine and thank you for enquiring After crashing 8 weeks ago tomorrow, can just about walk without the aid of a stick and the Surgeon, seen yesterday, well satisfied with progress. Worst part of the whole debacle was having about 100 staples removed from the 20 inch cut some weeks ago. Even the Nurse was wincing!

Happy days!!

GLA-not long now!

Seems somebody is not doing the job properly!!

Just 41 days until "H1" or preferably "Q2" expire-fingers crossed!

I'm afraid War distorts and abuses everything in its path, including normally honest citizens, so in turn distorts any statistics for normal comparison purposes.

I suppose if one was to take an overall cynical ( but proven time and time again) stance on the subject it would always come out as an "us and them" scenario with "us" footing the bill.

T'was ever thus I guess-some of the most illustrious names in the Kingdom are there only because of shady dealings in the past rewarded by others of an equally shady pedigree!!

I meant to add the very apt saying of Plato:-

"If you do not take an interest in the affairs of your Government then you are doomed to live under the rule of fools"

Still holds good two and a half thousand years later but still we don't learn!!

The Trotsky

I wasn't setting out to portray Bryant as some sort of saint, far from it but at least he is having a go at being poacher turned gamekeeper for whatever reasons (including, almost certainly, settling a few old scores!) but in the final analysis what actually will change?

As for the size of past malfeasances beating today's efforts, suggest you look at the telephone numbers associated with the scandalous commissioning of PPE during the Covid scare and the extreme lengths numerous MP's went to to obtain lucrative contacts for their chums (Baroness M..e step forward please).

Those figures alone dwarfed anything in the past save perhaps for Ernie Marples the then Minister of Transport awarding huge road contracts to Marples Ridgeway then ultimately had to flee to Monaco to avoid prosecution for tax "problems")

Plus ca change!!!!!

Agree 100%. The ONS publishes what Downing Street tell it to publish. The desperate death throes of probably the worst Tory Government on record.

Can heartily recommend you read "Code of Conduct. Why we need to fix Parliament-and how to do it" by Chris Bryant.

I'm only half way through it and absolutely stunned at what goes off in that House of Shame which, if perpetrated in the Private Sector, would have MP's and Ministers baying for blood. Makes me wonder how the system works at all

Just handed 34% of the upcoming divi back to Aviva for car insurance, up 68% on last year but leaving me with that warm feeling that I have contributed to Amanda's annual bonus

They have now made it impossible to discuss anything at all about one's policy with a human being, a disturbing trend and when you ask a robot why the premium has increased it doesn't understand the question.

Pass the gin bottle missus.

But still t/o of only 6% of shares is issue-would have expected much more but still 4.5 hours to go

Think about it.

He is a major shareholder and, no doubt, privy to what is going on behind the scenes even though he is not in office any more, so any selling by him would immediately be construed as insider trading

Actually convicted for failure to prevent fraudulent transactions because that's all the bean counters at SFO could dig up after nearly 5 years of trying to smear Petrofac and failing.

If the sodding Australian media hadn't poked their grubby little noses into this in the first place we wouldn't be where we are now. In the meantime for other contractors to the Gulf it has been "business as usual" if you know what I mean!

As to what is going to happen lenders are between a rock and a hard place: pull the plug and lose billions or continue to support to facilitate the working through of contracts in the hope of lessening the blow

Aha! I see a filtered message! Must be CBlue having one of his periodic outbursts of vitreol!

.. total credit for the rapid rise to today's closing!

I am the kiss of death when it comes to dealing. Bearing in mind Sareum's SP volatility I sold my Wrap, albeit for a tidy tickle, since which time the SP has forged ahead. Shudder to think what would happen if I put my toe in the water again tomorrow.

..... RF could also be the initials for "Royally .....d"

(Still under Morphine ingestion so possibly my little grey cells a tad jumbled!)

Orbi

The clue is in the name "ex div" ie you buy the share exclusive of entitlement to the dividend declared. That is why the SP falls as it is assumed

the company's value is now reduced by the amount of the dividend they are due to pay out.

Hope this helps

Yes and this despite the continuing reduction in number of shares on the market

"I say let it roll and see what happens over the next few months."

Many of us have been saying that for well over a decade so you may well understand it when the comments on this Board get just a teensy weensy bit pessimistic.

(Don't waste your time having a go Colbalt.- you are filtered and possibly not just by me)
