[ten bag man] 23/6/2015 08:32

More buying this morning.!

[nick rubens] 22/6/2015 13:28

I did say mm's were trying to scare a few out on 16th June. Look now and with corporate activity expected at anytime it could absolutely fly on the right news.

[mister md] 22/6/2015 13:28

all sells being quickly bought up by big holders recently

[ten bag man] 22/6/2015 12:50

RNS OUT!

Mark Jackson now has just short of 9% of the company.!!

[mister md] 22/6/2015 10:51

exactly. good to see a slow but steady rise here. < 1m mktcap. Could see multiples of this if we get some corporate activity

[nick rubens] 16/6/2015 12:56

Don't let MM's rob you. news anytime on RTO and ask price is so high you won't get back in. IMO ( experienced opinion).

[mister md] 15/6/2015 11:48

really hope they will succeed in reversing something into this cash shell - and change the company name

[nick rubens] 15/6/2015 11:12

Asking price approaching 1.8p for a few.

[nick rubens] 12/6/2015 08:35

Hard to buy now and asking 1.6p for a few. Looking forward to some kind of classic shell deal. Not had one for a while. Surely something is due.

[mister md] 11/6/2015 15:47

hey its woken up (again) ...

[nick rubens] 04/6/2015 12:12

Good to see a new 3% holder and hopefully should hear something soon.

[mister md] 03/6/2015 15:33

so the new holder of 3% just RNS'd.... nominee account

'The Board are in talks with several parties and have received expressions of interest over the period to date and await positive responses. To date no definitive offers have resulted from these meetings and discussions but it still remains the Board's intention to continue these enquiries. The Board expects a positive future outcome from these discussions and on that basis considers the Company to be a going concern.'

[nick rubens] 01/6/2015 15:23

I've always been invested for the 'end game' and I'm hoping something is coming. They have been a shell for some time and one way or another I would like to know what is happening.

[mister md] 01/6/2015 14:16

picking up again, wonder what the odds are for a deal, 50:50 ?

[nick rubens] 26/5/2015 11:40

Looks like some interest recently. Needs a classic shell deal to get it soaring though.

[nick rubens] 14/5/2015 09:23

Still hopeful a deal will turn up.

[nick rubens] 31/3/2015 20:34

This shell has very attractive losses in the balance sheet worth many multiples of current mkt cap as well as around 1p a share worth of cash to boot.

[mister md] 30/3/2015 13:07

fingers crossed:

"The Company has adequate financial resources. The Directors have considered the Company cash flow forecasts and these cash flow forecasts indicate that the Company has sufficient cash resources to meet its ongoing operating expenses into the foreseeable future. UK Group of Hotels has no recourse to the Company which is solvent.

The Board believe that there is value in the Company as a quoted cash shell company and are seeking its sale as a going concern or the introduction of new business opportunities in order to continue its trade. The Board has therefore been in consultation with its two major groups of shareholders representing more than 40% of the total issued share capital, who have both indicated that they would wish to seek other business opportunities.

On this basis, the Board has been in talks with several other parties and have received expressions of interest over the period to date and await positive responses. To date no definitive business has resulted from those meetings and discussions but it still remains the Board's intention to continue these enquiries. The Board expects a positive future outcome from these discussions and on that basis considers the Company to be a going concern. However, if the outcome of these current or future discussions are not successful the Board may need to consider an orderly wind down of the Company."

[nick rubens] 27/1/2015 15:57

Should hear from HCP on administration outcome, and then future of this cash listed shell.

Should be worth a lot more with it's huge losses carried in accounts. Valued only at cash at moment.

Mr Thompson is currently a director on the board of Myskillz Limited, a company
which was subject to a successful winding up petition from a creditor in

2014 with the estimated creditors figure totalling £100,000.

Mr Thompson joined the board of OLCI Construction Training Limited in January

consisted of both secured bank debt and unsecured creditors amounting to £
736,000 and £967,000 respectively.

entered into a Company Voluntary Arrangement ("CVA") on 27 September 2013. The creditors figure totalled £1,163,737 of which £105,000 was due to Amphitrite
Limited, a company owned by Richard Thompson. The CVA involved the creditors
agreeing to a payment plan over three and a half years but did not involve any
of the creditors reducing the amount due to them.

Mr Thompson was a director of The Luxury Lifestyles Limited, a company which
entered into administrative receivership on 30 May 2002 with an estimated
deficiency in relation to creditors of £4.5 million.
