Weird thing is (like last Friday) they are offering only max 50k at market 16p.

[astralvision] 18/10/2019 10:58

Mr 100k in for another sack.

[sideshowbull] 18/10/2019 09:18

Friday deja vu.

Thanks Chris I just learned a new word "moribund". Who knew.

Also a new one from Horne "Gambol". Cheers for that too.

I think we are heading in the right direction. I think IM has a clue.

Or "to play like new born lambs". Full of innocence and the joys of life. That's our lot in BIRD. But it's a nasty world out there. I can think of at least 4 different ways to extract value from a company that will leave the holders of as much (or more) as 30% of the shares impotent to stop it. P*ss off the shareholders and a deal at much less than they might like is on the cards. Personally I want what they want but patience comes at a price like... being properly informed. Will the company break even in 2020 on current forecasts? That would do as a starter... nothing tied to a particular client. But they have gone native again with only what they are legally obliged to disclosed published. It doesn't improve shareholder value. Next AGM I will finally get off my backside and look to vote off moribund directors who contribute little or no value. It won't succeed but it will send a signal.

Gambol = crack and hookers.
God forbid they should even think about gambling!

[bonio10000] 17/10/2019 11:53

Hookers' cracks?

[denjon] 17/10/2019 11:44

When will our ship full of treasure arrive? Perhaps its just out of sight over the horizon waiting for tomorrow's inflowing tide. Best be up early just in case...

[sideshowbull] 17/10/2019 11:35

Crack and hookers more like it.

[horneblower] 17/10/2019 10:43

...to have a bit of a gambol :)

IBC is for Europe

NAB Las Vegas is THE show and they fly in from around the world.

[chriscallen] 17/10/2019 09:35

The NY NAB say in the blurb that 2/3rds of the attendees go to no other show... not a surprise when it is over 2,200 miles and just under 5 hrs to Las Vegas. Cairo is about as far from Heathrow and that has camels and pyramids as an added attraction; perhaps IBC could use it as a venue in alternate years?

Have BIRD done joint presentations with TownNews before?

[nickb] 17/10/2019 09:18

It’s NAB New York so a small show compared to the big NAB in Las Vegas in April


TownNews has a stand.

[bonio10000] 17/10/2019 07:33

Maybe they got double booked with Microsoft and Google?

[sideshowbull] 17/10/2019 07:31

Surely they must be at NAB. Unless there is no need any more?

[chriscallen] 17/10/2019 07:15

I completely forgot that NAB New York is on today. Did BIRD send anybody last year as they don't appear to be there. Perhaps they are too busy following up on IBC.

[geheimnis2] 16/10/2019 21:17

Yep

Needs another six figure deal to breach 20p

[bonio10000] 16/10/2019 19:09

Time for IM to seal a deal and put a floor in at 20p.

[sideshowbull] 16/10/2019 19:00

Makes me smile that peeps think there is a free float. :-)

[bonio10000] 16/10/2019 19:00
