If they'd remained as a 2&20 externally managed fund then the total management cost to Bur shareholders would have been much higher Amusing that MW depicted moving away from external management as a nefarious plot to manipulate value when it's usually seen as a shareholder friendly move

I told you earlier bbmsionlypostafter momentum Investors will drive this higher and I've been proved right, unlike my ramping of OPTI & WSG

That's when I'm not making pizza of course

Me too - and I've been known to spend a little more than £70 on a bottle of wine Issue isn't that it's that the board needs fresh blood - which it's getting - problem solved And they're right in that the board cannot meet in US or UK and anyone would get board of going to Guernsey

I used to drink my wine from a straw.... until someone pointed out the benefits of heating it up and drinking through the spout of a teapot.

Never looked back since.


Anyone know what street this is?..............

[yidarmytom] 11/9/2019 14:38

yip, me too Ozz. as i say, these people are bloody clutching at straws and now undermining their own position. They don't know how to stop so they keep going and look like morons

[chimers] 11/9/2019 14:37

[yidarmytom] 11/9/2019 14:35

I drank some 5-star petrol once ...in the old days...Esso I think but my memories faded quite fast after the first quart.


So who's turn is it to be TOM?

[yidarmytom] 11/9/2019 14:30

personally I don't care if they stay in 5* hotels, because I do, so why shouldn't they? I'm happy they do as long as they continue to deliver and grow the Company and its earnings. The Hotel story is more straw clutching desperation.

The story about the board meetings in exotic locales is fair comment.It should not have happened that the board stay in five star hotels or that their wives/partners are paid for.Three -star is more appropriate and payments for partners should be re-imbursed.It will not,however,prevent me from continuing to buy the shares.

Think this is just the start ...this is very cheap for USA players ..

It's at the low to medium end of corporate indulgence The boards not independent because the directors have been on it for too long and not because they stayed in a $450 a night hotel - they were hardly going to put them up in a holiday inn
