blackgold - in a decent Irish pub, there'll be 3 or 4 half poured pints on the bar settling

[edgar222] 05/5/2017 16:58

Jay interview and its OIL they are going for

[blackgold00] 05/5/2017 16:53

yes tgg, but it takes a bloody along time to pour a pint though, i nearly died of thirst waiting, a bit like Aminex they've kept me waiting, i suppose it's an Irish thing.

[thegreatgeraldo] 05/5/2017 16:42

I think Guinness benefits from being popular in a bar, ie where it doesn't spend much time sitting in the pipes

[tournesol] 05/5/2017 16:37

"...there surely must be "good" pints of Guinness…."

I sorry to say that as far as my palate is concerned that's an oxymoron. I find the stuff very very unappealing. Give me a pint of real ale any day.

[lfdkmp] 05/5/2017 16:33

Kev you have just mentioned an excellent pint of Guinness.

May I ask a question that has been troubling me for years.

I have heard this expression many times. However excellence is, to my mind, a relative term. Which means that there surely must be "good" pints of Guinness, "average" pints of Guinness, "not so good" pints of Guinness and "bleedin' awful" pints of Guinness.

However, in all my visits to Ireland I have never come across anyone mentioning the latter three categories. Can't work it out.

Did though once have an "abominable" pint of Guinness in the "Moon on the Square". - But what else would you expect in Basildon

[lfdkmp] 05/5/2017 16:02

Well funny you should mention that earnest. I'm 6ft4 1/2(important half that) inches. I was thinking this year of going as a pygmy. Am I likely to be taken seriously?

(Please no linked comments about intellect).

Never listen to all the nonsense, Bun; you'll be fine in East African native costume. Do not neglect your assegai.

The smallest pub in Dublin is the Confession Box on Marlboro Street:



Excellent pint of Guinness.

[tauroctinus] 05/5/2017 13:00

Super here in the Royal county of Meath also Gerry, with the fresh green leaves looking so well against the blue sky.

[gerryjames] 05/5/2017 12:40

Dublin is looking beautiful to-day tauroctinus. Just leaving Heuston station on route to Ballina. What are you like Bun, you know you're going to be asking the thread for directions to the venue in London on the 19th complaining about the taxi meter. Will this be the 4th or 5th year in the wrong City..lol.

[blackgold00] 05/5/2017 12:39

never been to one yet

[greyingsurfer] 05/5/2017 12:35

normal dress is a tux with a black tie for men or a ball gown for women

That must be why no one has ever taken me seriously at an AGM when I've turned up in my reasonably clean trousers and t shirt :-)! (Though I always seem to have been dressed like the majority)

[tauroctinus] 05/5/2017 11:56

It's always a concern if visitors to my native city can't get their hands on a drink.
If a difficulty arises, there is always the Dawson Lounge, just around the corner from St Stephan's Green Club at 25 Dawson St. I have never been there, but while I have heard good reports, I should warn that it is said to be the smallest pub in Dublin. I hope Capt Haddock would approve.

[thegreatgeraldo] 05/5/2017 11:51

Bb2 - who's suggested that you "dress for a business meeting"?

[tournesol] 05/5/2017 11:48

Actually a more serious answer for anyone who has never attended an AGM before….

normal dress is a tux with a black tie for men or a ball gown for women

alternative is academic robes and these can be worn over a tux or a lounge suit or a less formal dress

[tournesol] 05/5/2017 11:45

If you arrive wearing a kilt don't be surprised if people assume you are haggismchaggis and ask you if you're wearing shorts…..

Likewise if you come in a top hat and displaying a long waxed moustache, carrying a magic wand and accompanied by a beautiful assistant in tights, then it's only natural that people will take you for The Great Geraldo.

I'll be easy to recognise. I'll have my French version of a bowler hat and will be consulting my pendulum and I might be accompanied by my young reporter friend and his west highland white terrier. If my other nautical friend comes along you'll need to be fast off the mark to get your hands on a drink…...

[bunbooster2] 05/5/2017 11:42

I'm more concerned about what does dress for a business meeting actually mean. Would black shoes and smart (unripped, washed) dungarees be acceptable? I don't own a suit.

Does anyone know the dress code for the AGM? What are others planning to wear?

"Dress code"??? WTF? Don't turn up in pyjamas & slippers.....

[haggismchaggis] 05/5/2017 10:35

And...What was the oil level found at N3How high is N3/Namisange oil prospectivity Will there be 3D seismic over N3 prior to drilling, and will this be targeting oil and/or gasHow much would the CNG plant cost and who would pay for itHow much would gas to power at Ntorya cost and who would pay for it What level of gas sales are expected in the short term through CNG or gas to powerHas the board identified any suitable African O&G production assets and at what stage are discussions

[oilandgas1] 05/5/2017 09:53

Never mind the debate about what to wear, what do we need to ask!

A few questions for starters:

1.what are the plans to address the reservoir depletion concerns at KN-1. How much Capex will be needed?
2. When will the spud for Ntorya-3 happen?
3. Are there any New gas contracts in the pipeline for 2017 h2?
4. What is Nyuni update?? Does it require a placing / farm out and what is the current status?
5. The share price had a recent large drop due to the Sales by PT, why was that not managed better e.g. Other board members buy some? ( seems they have now TBC)

[haggismchaggis] 05/5/2017 09:07

If you're looking for any of our local basher crowd, just look for anyone dressed as a troll ;-)

[edgar222] 05/5/2017 08:19

BunYou should come out of a cake

[gerryjames] 05/5/2017 08:11

Thanks Dan.

Good luck.
