That was my thought, Prospector. As I said several months ago, any project surely works on the principle of what in my day used to be called a critical path analysis, whereby different strands are developed in parallel. You surely don't wait months to get one achieved without making some progress at least on others?

31st December 2025 is a generous target date for first shipment. And it does give time for this board to calm down, relax and enjoy hopefully better summers in 2024 and 2025 than we are experiencing weatherwise this year.

"extended for several decades" is going to be bountiful for those in their 20s, 30s, even 40s. I did mention earlier that I shall be 80 soon after we achieve production. I still believe in this coming good, in which I shall share, but sadly not "for several decades".

Barrett, when I first came on BBs, of which LSE was the second platform, back about 14/15 years ago, I was so naive I had absolutely no idea that people contributed for ulterior motives, for which they got paid. And to this day, of course, it makes it difficult, virtually impossible, to distinguish who the 100% genuine people are.

There's a difference of opinion, it seems, as to whether production will start in 2024 or 2025. I think we should be relaxed about things, even if it's likely to be 2025 rather than 2024. As I said just now, I'd be content with 2028, but that's only personal, so that it would align with my 80th birthday.

In a funny sort of way, Max, "delay" fulfils an ambition for derampers and removes the very reason for their existence, so by rights that did ought to leave, but for precisely the opposite reason to what you are thinking. If they truly believe that things are going to be boring here, why stay around and be bored?

My 80th, Huldiiii. I am hoping that the UFO share price might help to defray some of my funeral costs.

2028 marks a significant milestone in my own life, so I am happy to wait until then to see production start and bring a bonus for my birthday.

Hope you're right, cj. I'd like to be sharing in that. It's just, as I say, when we've had nothing but red, red, red, week after week, month after month, it's hard to believe that anything else is ever possible.

It is nice to see blue, isn't it, cj? But I think we can all be forgiven for feeling a little demoralised when we contemplate the astronomical percentage increases it is going to take, even on the best of news, just to get to 1p. Let alone beyond.

I've never understood how people on here know which contributors to these forums are genuine shareholders and which are not. This may be information available only to premium members, because I've never seen any details of other people's shareholdings, in this company or any other.

Up to a point you're right, 5x5. It's clumsiness rather than anything sinister. But' clumsy' is not really the image we should be projecting. 'Crisp' and 'efficient' engender more confidence in the markets.

Ah, another cover blown! Huldiiii is really Gertrude Jekyll. LOL

It is fair criticism for once. Only yesterday I was talking about the importance of having PR/communications skills within AIM companies. It should not have been allowed to happen, a fundamental blunder like allowing your website to expire coinciding with the very date that people were expecting some announcement from the company. Totally unnecessary trigger for alarm and despondency.

I wonder if you are managing to access it via cache, Max? Because it's definitely not accessible to the rest of us.

I just discovered the same thing, cj. Interestingly, at the stage before I reached that security warning Google describes Alien Metals as an "iron ore company". I wonder if that has anything to do with the strategic review? Are we officially going to become IOCA?

Can somebody please enlighten me what CAU means?

"Next year" is only 5 months away. If it IS next year it's not like we're being asked to wait for another millennium.

Don't panic, Mr Mainwaring, it'll still be July in California for nearly another 21 hours.

We are actually united in our frustration, bob. I have been saying for over 10 years that one of the failings of too many AIM companies, particularly explorers, is that while they are populated by geologists, miners, engineers or whatever - professionals who may even be world-class in their respective fields - they lack either the budget or the far-sightedness, or both, to have a PR/communications expert on their executive board.
