Which is the blind one?

[yertiz] 25/2/2019 12:25

Peters and Lee?

Yertiz and Getting

I think there is the making of a Country and Western duo here, albeit a very elderly one. I can just see them leaning up against their Zimmer frames.

“Porky and Ryewhile” seems a good name for them.😁ԅ13;😁

They-re gonna hang me in the morning
A'fore this night is done
They're gonna hang me in the mornin'
And I'll never see the sun

getting,

You claim to know what shares I have. Are you able to calculate how much the value increases when MRO rises 20p as over the last few weeks?

But beware of such calculations, as the song warns :-

You got to know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em,
Know when to walk away and know when to run,
You never count your money, when you're sittin' at the table,
There'll be time enough for countin', when the dealing's done.

GKN Sinter Metals, the global market leader for high precision sinter products continues its growth strategy with the announcement of investing in a new facility in Mexico. Situated in Guanajuato, the plant will have almost 6,000 sqm of roofed area and employ up to 250 people over the next years.

"We are proud to welcome GKN Sinter Metals in the state of Guanajuato, a company with high technology products and a company with a large global footprint. Our state welcomes GKN with open arms," said Mauricio Usabiaga Diaz Barriga, Guanajuato Secretary of Economy Development.

Supporting GKN Sinter Metals’ leading position in Automotive and Industrial Markets and its strategic focus to expand products in electrical systems, the site will be perfectly positioned to support local Mexico customers who require powder metal product solutions in X-by-Wire systems, e-pump technology, connected home technologies, etc.

During a ground-breaking ceremony with representatives from the local government and business partners on February 19, GKN Powder Metallurgy CEO Peter Oberparleiter re-confirmed the company’s commitment to its operations in Mexico.

“It is part of our strategy to have operations in our key markets and in close proximity to our customers. Reflecting the strong development of the Mexican automotive and industrial sector over the recent years this investment was a natural step,” Oberparleiter said.

"We are excited to see local production beginning in August with the objective to have full operations and local supply from Guanajuato in 2019."

Yertiz. Glad it went well. I looked at the Argyle report. Such a transformation since the beginning of the season.

Another foggy start here but lovely weather expected. Raised beds are in - looking good. Coffee in the garden today methinks.

Melrose well positioned re electric cars and at the forefront of manufacturing technology.

EU negotiations will go down to the last day. Germany and rest of Europe in trouble in many ways. Sadly politics seem more important than reality with Juncker, etc.

What a weekend! Thanks B+, the party went fantastically well, followed by a BBQ yesterday.

Argyle massacred poor Rochdale, 5 - 1 wasn’t a real reflection on the dominance Argyle had, a double figure score line wouldn’t have been out of order had it not been for Rochdale’s keeper.

The barbecue was hosted by a Michelin starred family friend - the food was superb!
3 weeks to results, Mr Market seems to anticipate good news. May on the other hand won’t be getting any results from the EU, could very well be a hard Brexit - that’ll go down like a lead fart with someone, 🤣

[brexitplus] 25/2/2019 07:38

Oh Porky. If that is the best you can do you might as well give up. Absolutely pathetic.😂😂😂

[minerve] 24/2/2019 23:09

brexit's sausage doesn't work. It never has done!

ROFLMAO!

[minerve] 24/2/2019 23:09

Still top of the league and world record profits.

The poor old fool is in denial.

[minerve] 24/2/2019 23:07

We Built Man City
We Built Man City On Arab Oil

[smcni1968] 24/2/2019 22:11

what happened with the sausages ?

[brexitplus] 24/2/2019 21:19

Great day in Bristol today. Lovely weather. Fabulous lunch. Walked about 5 miles.

Football. Liverpool were rubbish. Man City title. Plymouth Argyle thumped Rochdale.

Night, night.

[minerve] 24/2/2019 20:54

LET'S GO DARN THE PUB AND PUT WORLD TO RIGHT THEN, EH?

STAY OUT OF THE BLACK AND INTO THE RED, NOTHING IN THIS GAME FOR USING YOUR HEAD.

LOOK WHAT YOU COULD HAVE KEPT - MANUFACTURING IN SWINDON AND SUNDERLAND

AND YOU HAVE WON - MIKE ASHLEY JOB FOR TWO - SUPER, SMASHING, GREAT

I used to work in the players' bar at Pontypridd RFC. Used to watch their matches for free.

I have no interest in rugby.

[meanwhile] 23/2/2019 19:21

Oh dear lads, you have had a bad week, particularly brexit (the Cotswold sausage sage) and getting (the £100 a meal, rights issue expert).
Not only on the shares front, as pointed out by my friend Minerve :-

"Melrose going nowhere.
Burford going nowhere.
Purple Bricks tanking.
Plus 500 tanking."

but now on Wales beating England at the game of rugby.

Minerve will no doubt capitalise on all this and be harsh towards you but I, having a more compassionate nature, can try to console you with a verse from this little bedtime song from Perry Como.

"Little man you're cryin', I know why you're blue
Someone took your kiddy-car away
Better go to sleep now
Little man you've had a busy day."

[jackdaw4243] 23/2/2019 17:49

A hard game as I watch 3 to 10, with a population less than Manchester Wales do very well and I support them.

[brexitplus] 23/2/2019 11:57

Yes, Exeter have done very well. Gloucester ‘kindergarten’ is Hartpury College which has provide a few international recently. Moriarty, Polledri, etc. Lots of youngsters in the England under 18 and 20 teams. Plus Thorley who was under 20.

Agree about leopards.

Rochdale might be a close game but Argyle are on the up. Good luck.

Enjoy the party.

[yertiz] 23/2/2019 11:38

Good results for you guys, well done. Chiefs fielding 5 players today for the game v Taffies. 3 starting, some incredible development for a team that 10 years ago were but a blip on the rugby map.
Re the dialogue with the pair of liars, I’d rather just ignore them, their responses have shown how dispassionate and warped they are. Leopards and spots.

Off to Argyle this pm so missing the rugby unfortunately but then off for the evening with family for a big birthday bash - could get messy!!

[brexitplus] 22/2/2019 21:47

Yertiz

First Glaws beat you then beat Sarries to help you win the league. Two late tries for Sarries - it was 30-10. Great 8 days.

[brexitplus] 22/2/2019 19:13

MW, I believe your memory is failing you too. It was beef from a new farmer using his service.
