The thing I don't understand about the overly optimistic sector (some call them "rampers", but there's no need to be derogatory), is that if I were SO confident of a spectacular JV or sale RNS emerging within weeks, if not days, I would be acquiring silently, not talking things up 10 times a day, every day, and thereby making my top-ups that little bit more expensive every time.

I hope they're right. But with regard to repeating the 30-50 bagging of 5 years ago, we mustn't forget to factor in that there are billions more shares circulating now than there were then.

Your 10 bagger scenario is valid, OML, IF the slide can be arrested at 0.07. But we have seen so many "this is the bottom" that lots of us need an injection of confidence that it will be so. I remember 0.25 being seen as a ridiculous assumption for a low.

"JV due any day in 2032 now". Mmm, flatliners.

I joke to my GP that I must surely be the biggest hypochondriac on her list. But when I told her that I am a LTH of UFO she said, "Right, well we can at least strike Insomnia off then".

The answer to your question, Does this ever have a blue day? Steve is Yes, it does have the occasional blue day. Like night follows day, the one blue day is then followed by three to four consecutive red days. After which a plateau is reached and nothing happens at all for about twenty-five years. Then the pattern is repeated.

Oh, keep up, Bishop. The "heavy news flow" was starting autumn 2023. Have you not noticed it?

As ever, HH, I take your measured and experience-based words with a great deal of seriousness.

What's more, on several evenings this winter I have encountered snails well above head height on the exterior walls of my cottage and have thought "How T F did you get up there?" :):):)

Norm... do you (or anyone else) know anything about greyhound racing? I'm thinking of taking out my "investment" here and trying something else :):)

I always say that "dog" is totally the wrong way to describe UFO, pebsi. Irrespective of breed, dogs are universally loyal to their owners and spend their entire lives doing their utmost to please them.

The DSO, pebsi, leaves me incredulous. The analogy I'd use is that of a fully-stocked supermarket with the doors firmly locked for day after day, and a crowd outside on the pavement chanting "Open the flippin' doors!"

The Chinaman going back to talk to his boss is arguably the most hilarious twist in this long-running saga. How, exactly, was he going back? On a tea clipper? In a dugout canoe? Have they got powered flight yet in China? Let alone telephonic or electronic communication?

By saying 'THE' JV, Tarquin, as opposed to 'A' JV, the implication would be that there IS an imminent JV and it's just a matter of date to get it signed. This is the hope of all of us, but can we be that confident? We need to be the sunniest of optimists to stay with UFO, and it's becoming quite a difficult role to carry off really.

"We need a small miracle even to get above 0.15 now"

And there was me, norm, only a year or so back, not daring to put my head above the parapet and announce that if it went as low as 0.25 I'd top up, lest they came down on me like the proverbial ton of bricks for talking pessimistic rubbish.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Or even dig down deep and tell us about a big building project in Scarborough.

I think, norm and 5x5, this is what is so perplexing to many of us who would never want to be seen as adversaries of the likes of Max, never want to be regarded as de-rampers or undermining the company. We are just baffled as to what has happened to all the positivity around native agreements, mining permissions, road building, port allocations. It seems to have gone from being on the cusp to being completely in limbo. Asking a question like "Is he still employed?" is a valid one. We've got no idea what the hell is going on.

I can't square the almost blanket atmosphere of gloom, which has been allowed to develop, with this apparent advertisement for a project manager to push Hancoo into production. Now I know that this is hardly price-sensitive enough news to warrant an RNS, but surely the BOD could have done rather more in publicising this initiative as a means of generating some positivity, rather than letting people know almost by accident. It does, of course, rather beg the question of why they wish to appoint a project manager NOW, rather than having done so in 1947?

Thanks norm. So my worst fears are confirmed then. We could be waiting months and months more for this "deal".

Sorry norm, which statement was this and when? Because my concern is with the line "I am confident that a deal will be struck this year". Is this historical and was referring to 2024, or by "this year" does he really mean 2025? Because we're only two weeks in, there's another eleven and a half months to grind through.
