We were going to sub you a couple of billion in aid following c19 etc.
Turns out you have pinched a couple from those lovely chaps at FRR.
So now we're going to give it to them.

ps top tip only meet your Kremlin mates in rooms without windows or on the ground floor
Is that more than 140 characters?
Zaza is taking tough, US senators are too. (Good work DomFok)
Legs's slides show discontentment in Georgia but GD are still the biggest party.
Most posters today are upbeat. I am not.
Feels like Last Orders in Last Chance Saloon to me - at least it's not Time at the Bar.
Should I get a double round in? What's the chance of a lock-in?
Two pints of Stella please Barman.
So only 17 of you (us) have not been subjected to the management training courses that I have, making you listen to that twaddle. But many more have.
We frr ers are classy bunch... Aren't we?
Good luck all lth
Ps pipe up now if you are a sth... And why and how
This is a little story about four people named Everybody, Somebody, Anybody, and Nobody.
There was an important job to be done and Everybody was sure that Somebody would do it.
Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did it.
Somebody got angry about that because it was Everybody's job.
Everybody thought that Anybody could do it, but Nobody realized that Everybody wouldn't do it.
It ended up that Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have done.
If he doesn't tell somebody something before 27th July then he won't have anything to tell anyone.
Even if releasing the whole ruling upsets another party that is better than losing the lot. Lots more SMs
Both sides have now upped the anti and accused the other of not wanting to release the full ruling.
You'd have thought that an indisputable Arbitration result would have brought clarity.
I'm with CF73 - GG are not 100% victors IMO.
27th July is my birthday - some ffing present that'll be !
Freeatlast - you are wise to suggest patience.
However, if I was wise - I flipping well wouldn't be here.
Tomorrow - BRING IT ON ! C'mon ZZ show us the money!
The 99% acreage is in Georgia and was never exported to Houston.
How can Frr not return it to them? It never left.
Worst case - Gogc could say " we are going to look for oil and gas here", Frr say "no you're not", gogc say "stop us then"
How could frr stop then.
On the flip side, Frr have to ask pemission to do ANYTHING. So I just don't get it
Jackpack
I'd accept. For at least half
How could the arbitration decision be unanimous? With a frr appointee on the panel.
Some possible ways..
1. Frr are so bad that even our guy had to concede
2. All part of the plan to rip us off
3. All part of the plan to return value to shareholders
4. Our guy was got to by someone or wasn't who Zaza thought he was
Any other suggestions?

I think there is a large number of honest decent ordinary folk who have invested here not perhaps the type of people Georgians may imagine are frontera shareholders who in most cases have invested in good faith.
Also, most have invested relatively small amounts but large to them. Financial ruin etc.
We knew the risks but having the prize stolen after it was won does seem unjust.
FRR have spent a lot of money to have something to arbitrate on - getting that back would seem the minimum to be fair, plus a bit (a lot) for the risks taken.
I would bang on like that - if I was talking to a journalist.
Gogc only went for 99%.
Panel accepted frr had spent 580 minus a couple of hundred million $. So they must have left something to recover that.
Frr have not given up yet and have spent money this year on lobbying.

Would anybody like to put a value on the Taribana field alone.
Then we can divide by the number of shares to give a value per share.
Then we can multiply by how many shares we each own and we can all go back to dreaming of being millionaires again.
One day it's all gloom and money down the drain, the next people are talking about our leader in very disparaging and threatening terms, next millionaires again.
Praise the Lord for the gift of Bulletin Boards
We all own shares which are in reality a percentage of the company.
Because the total number of shares is so large, we probably own less than 1% each. So we each own a percentage of a percent.
But any profit we make has to be shared with the GG. So it’s a percentage of a percentage of a percent.
Arbitration compromise means that we will lose some of B12. So it’s a percentage of a percentage of a percentage of a percent.
FRR will want to keep some of the profit to invest in Moldova and Ukraine. What do you reckon – a percentage? So it’s a percentage of a percentage of a percentage of a percentage of a percent.
Have I missed anything? It’s a good job Madp’s numbers are so big.
In light of the loss of 99% this has changed to
So it’s a percentage of a percent of a percentage of a percentage of a percent.
Like I said, it's a good job Madp's jokes are so good - NOOOO! numbers are so big. Or were the numbers a joke too?
If you can't have a laugh with the hangman, who are you going to have a laugh with?
Hope you're all safe and well
Good news though, the forestry commission is still trading but they think they are not out of the woods and trampoline sales are expected to bounce once lockdown is relaxed
But magicians are in trouble, business has fallen like a house of cards but they are hoping the chancellor can pull a rabbit out of the hat for them.
Honey producers association has been critical of government reporting of figures and believe there will be a sting in the tail.
Accupuncturists are at the sharp end of the crisis
There I was delivering to a nice leafy part of Bishop's Cleeve when I spotted 2 neighbours talking to each other from their gardens on opposite sides of the road.
My drop was at no 52...2 doors before the neighbours chatting. So I went to the cul-de-sac turned and on the way back I stopped my van between them to help with their social distancing.
2 guffaws of displeasure.
I called out 'only joking' and moved the van to outside my drop.
NOT A SMIRK NOR SMILE EVEN FROM THE HUSBAND WATCHING.
Miserable sods.
He looked rough in his last twitter.
Not heard of since.

Be lucky to survive imo.
I managed to keep the Arcam board going for months with just a few posts - single handedly. I have made a promise to myself to post some (rubbish probably) stuff on this board every day if I see nothing.
FYI Argos is busier than Christmas but still possible (in the shire) to get same day delivery
