These are the sort of pitches that need a points deduction

thanks, much better

@guywsc.bsky.social Is it possible to turn up Roland's mike? Yours/Dave's is fine but Roland is a little quiet.

pandering to "anything" is dangerous

I don't suppose any of the bland boring puddings will be rated like this.

NEVER give them your email

The only conclusion is that the government is not trying to do that.

How do they replace TRJ if they give their promising young seamers so little experience?

Very sensible of them, even if it did take too long to do so.

Bought some PINE following a thought from the other place. Rapid growth v likely for some years to come & nearly 1/2 the mooted takeover price (that didn't happen).

NTBR last year FD joins in May, leaves in October no full time replacement at present. Today non-exec chair of the audit committee leaves.

Still at least we expect it.

It emphasises how much the ECB finds county cricket a nuisance that they hope will go away

Nope

Sold CABP. Future prospects not quite as optimistic as I thought they might be

The purpose of the current men's event is to make money. It has little to do with "sport". Even the ad breaks are called something else to pretend that's not what they are.

Formal offer for CABP at a price the board has already rejected...

Sold RWS, market not agreeing with me.

Given the event is to generate ad revenue for the BCCI does it matter? It's not as though it is a serious sporting event.

so funny

Sold CPI. Price seems to wander a lot so I hope to be back at some point.

Needs an experienced captain to tell him what to do

I see Richard Griffiths has been buying since the middle of last yr & has a significant amount.

Bought some RWS on an in line AGM statement. If they make these figures as they seem confident in doing then forward PE under 6 & yield over 9% appears rather cheap.

A number of small director buys from HDD reported today. I wonder if the recent option awards (grrr) required them to hold more shares?

Says a lot about him

HDD announcing more significant US orders shows the potential here, albeit concentrated in 1 customer at present. Looks v good value to me (I hold)

The offer is derisory. Good business for a PE firm. Float at a premium, buy back a few years later at a discount. That is not a good reason for anyone else to accept this offer now the company is on a strong upward path.

The arrogance of the team extends all the way up.

Sorry to hear that.
