Anyone here pick up that 140K?

Nice one anyway - I reckon there was a few end of year sells to take CGT gains in this financial year - always hits the illiquid small caps but makes a good buying opportunity for those looking to buy. APG had the same.

CR- we seem to think alike. I was told the new range was 'fantastic' when I called in! Morale seems very high. Rosby cannot have seriously influenced first half but I am expecting a serious improvement for the full year with them posting pre tax profits circa £800/£1m. In 2003 they hit just under £400k on a t/o of £4m so this is quite achievable. I think the shares very good value and will be buying again if they dip back. A good full year result should see these double again. With the new managing director and the sales director having such large options @ 3p they will be busting a gut to make it happen.

Accumulate.

a few little sells today - impossible to get them back at a sensible price when these start rising imo, but there you go. Been up well and not seen any profit takers of note so got to have a few to allow people to buy I suppose.

Spoke to the sales girl at Fulham Lord C, they are now doing all the soft close doors, internal baskets and a range of work tops where before you got one type of worktop. Two plain wood doors available now too. Rosby's making the co far more sales oriented.

One 100k buy today moved the price. Imagine what a few buys would do 8-)

[cockneyrebel] 22/3/2007 20:18

I was thinking of them share buying? I would think with the illiquidity they would find it impossible now to buy at the year end unless a large seller was around, which doesn't seem the case. Is this a way of letting them effectively buy shares when there's none in the market?

Anyway, Charlotte is duly motivated by performance hence with.

Nice to see they were't the easy options so of these co's issue at below the market price too.

Charlottle Hill Baldwin and Rosby given 3m share options each exercisable at 3p - that's a positive Lord C. :-)


I wondered why she had been left out with the previous options.

that's why they had stock b,b,dave, someone sold 300K that day - just shown up in a 'Z' trade from 4 days ago. All been soaked up and more - bet the seller's gutted :-)

Although after the move up yesterday there was plenty of stock around all of a sudden CR. On Thursday it was tough to get 300 quids worth

[cockneyrebel] 17/3/2007 12:09

bigbigdave - yep, it's difficult to buy, only way to get any is buying on weakness when someone wants to sell.

Doesn't appear to be any sellers on the rise either and I'm not surprised, sell these and they'll probably never get the chance to buy them back with this poor liquidity imo.

sharp spike right now

any particular reason ?

[bigbigdave] 16/3/2007 14:02

Moving again. Managed a miserly 100k yesterday in the end.

[lord c.] 16/3/2007 08:01

I believe there is some institutional interest for the first time ever.
Wouldn't suprise me to see the Chairman release some shares. The sooner the better.

[macli] 15/3/2007 21:53

that makes us both holding in excess of 1m shares. What is going down happy? for you to keep buying and pushing price up
