At least I only moan on a fortnightly basis!! My next one is due next week!!!

K3VMC - Interesting comments. Is there a site where you can search significant holdings? You obviously know he has large positions elsewhere.

True and thinking further ahead, Lincolnshire Council have just given an approval re the RNS today, so it's given that Egdon now "know" what's required. Hence the Wressle (re) application should be submitted correctly this time? And it's reasonable to expect should receive a favourable answer?

Do we view this as a good day as we're 12% up or a bad day as we were 30% up at one stage? I'm neutral. Good RNS and lays a platform for the future, but this is always going to be a trading share

Laks - I was just making the 'insider trading' point. Naturally if he knows nothing and is just very bullish about the future prospects then good luck to him - and us!!

I'm assuming an RNS is now a little way off as with Steve's purchase, it would amount to insider trading if he knows the results of the work over??

We need and RNS. Can't go counting chickens

As i said mt, I'm not in any way being negative. Just trying to put another perspective in order that any action group doesn't damage AST and the sp. That's all.

<monarch i don't want to be involved, but I have my own reasons for that. i do take my hat off to you and wish you and your group all the best. I'd just caution if between now and you sending anything to CH, IPPC came in for example and the sp rose significantly - do you have a sp in mind where by you'd cancel any action? Not being negative, just thinking aloud.

Been watching the sp this morning and some of the comments on the bb. Am i missing something or was the phase 3 trials a failure? i.e. The placebo was as effective (or not as the case may be) as the drug?

I have to agree Jester. Wild sp predictions have never done anything for me apart from switching off to the poster. Right now we're struggling to maintain 1p so talking of 22p is pie in the sky just now,

Like your post from yesterday Wile E C. Sadly "water" when mentioned in an RNS creates panic on the sp however anyone who has been involved in O & G stocks will know this goes with the territory. Of course the well issues have to be sorted but assuming that happens then the upside is massive. The sp is rock bottom and surely the upside is massive?

Well there's a death wish for us if ever there was one!!

Evening Coot - Story of my life, bad aim investments. I've decided just to let my cash roll here. i keep trying to convince myself the asset is there and one day the market will wake up. I do accept there's a long way to go to get back to the 2p+days but then again this is aim and anything can happen. Over a good weekend all URU'ers

I meant 'post' not 'spot'. Autocorrect gets the better of me again

Really good spot Stockale. I can't argue with anything you've said. I actually think sentiment was changing a few of weeks ago and then came along the PG11a issues which sent us into a tailspin again. Terrible timing which seems to have been a trait of AST. It would be really interesting if ll the negative posters and quite honestly the idiots, were to take some gardening leave for a month and then see what happens to the sp.

Wayne you're wrong. A lot of the trades posted as guys were actually sells. you need to do dummy trades at the time of the transactions and you'd have seen there were sells above the mid price. Probably still more buys than sells but nowhere near the ratios which have been published.

Suffolk has its own micro climate! Not great for tomorrow! Have a good one anyway

Being quoted 0.8875p to sell and 0.90p to buy. So some of the apparent buys are actually sells. Might have something to do with why the sp is not ticking up

Not for long though. Crappy weekend down south. Normal service resumed.
