mark - "as they have not deserted us, which can happen in a blink of an eye on AIM"

well Retter has done a runner to a new job?

TGL, which I am hopeful, as with PRG, that given time it will all work out ok. EDG on the other hand vanished in the spring, quality assets "ruthlessly" cost managed vanish without a trace. I fully expect that Director to pop up with his head in the spoils at some stage.

Yes unbelievable Christmas.....

Mark, was the other one OXS? That plus PRG ruined my Xmas in 2015.

Beeks I sold out of OBT at 6p as my whole portfolio was crumbling and with two of my holdings delisting within days (PRG being one of them), I had to make a call on salvaging any of my savings at all. I was fed up with jam tomorrow with OBT and did get swayed by Superg1 forceful posts. I had a good holding in OBT and would be enjoying the current rise (although I don't see any substantial reason for it it really). I take it on the chin and blame no one but myself, it has been an awful year for me financially.

That aside I don't subscribe to some of views on here, I believe the PRG team have had a torrid few years also, of broken promises, and are still doing all they feasibly can to make this come good. The position I squandered is embarrassing, however I am an optimist and will remain optimistic regarding PRG as they have not deserted us, which can happen in a blink of an eye on AIM. I know from harsh experience, one minute a director says stick with me the pain will be worth it, then moments later gone without a trace. I have found the PRG team the complete opposite and I am still hoping for the best.

I'm still waiting for OBT to half due to some dissident throwing a pie at a policeman.

I wonder how many sold out on his "nudge wink, I know more than you" way of posting?

superg the good samaritan as ever. Keep it up.

I've also been tweeting links to my blog posts to @bbcfileon4 - I would strongly suggest other aggrieved s'holders get in touch too if you have Twitter. If enough do so, maybe they'll make Paragon the subject of s follow-up...

[club sandwich] 14/10/2016 13:07

Er, I posted a link to that about 3 days ago, when I wrote to the Head of AIM? Keep up... ;-)

When this finally fails, doubtless Manduca and others will blame me: when the actual truth is that this company is already dead (which is, in fact, what Manduca allegedly told the creditors to persuade them to settle at 10p on the pound), and there is absolutely zero chance of Manduca ever delivering funding or of this ever relisting. The sooner everyone accepts that, the sooner we can plan accordingly and hold to account the *real* author of our misfortunes...

"Or how about when Clubbie loses his whole investment and then the Chairman invites you to two meetings for you to air your views in person he doesn't show up?"

For someone who makes out he is mr big and has a 'loud voice' I do find it very strange that he never showed up for the meetings. He said the first meeting was to far which was fair enough but the 2nd meeting was easy to get to.

[club sandwich] 14/10/2016 11:46

Super -"very early"? It's been eleven months since suspension, and no announcement from the company of any kind (bar the Nomad resigning and delisting)...? I don't count the two meetings: Manduca should be communicating with*all* shareholders...I'll ask again a very simple question: if the funding is there, why hasn't it been drawn down? What's the delay?

Re Simon Retter - Not good, that's nail -in-the-coffin-stuff for me. Those investors who have invested more probably not overjoyed with that news....

[ilovefrogs] 14/10/2016 11:28

superg1 - People losing money is no laughing matter, I agree - I lost some in PRG as well. I also agree with many of CS's sentiments, though not the degree to which he's acting on them.

That all said, I did find Beeks' posts very funny, and I do like a laugh, so good luck to him!

[superg1] 14/10/2016 11:22

I see Simon Retter moved on (16th September)

LONDON (Alliance News) - Horizonte Minerals PLC on Friday said it has appointed Simon Retter as company secretary and chief financial officer with immediate effect. He replaces Jeffrey Karoly, who has stepped down to pursue other interests.

He'll still have fingers in PRG but possibly not a good sign

[ilovefrogs] 14/10/2016 10:51

ROFL - Beeks, you're a genius sir! Endgame, sorry, whilst somewhat off topic, it's hard to say that Beeks isn't contributing to the entertainment value of this thread.......

[club sandwich] 14/10/2016 10:00

See what I mean?

Still no update to the Paragon web site, so the letter to Matekane also goes later today.

The next poster is gay
