Yes - they've always been pretty good at grouts and adhesives

[death by donut] 03/4/2015 10:09

Just to add , I do like a couple of their adhesives and grouts.DbD. :-)

Bowed , sizey , flawed. Apart from that OK :-)They are cheapos used generally for HA new builds , doesn't make my job any more pleasant tho. There floor tiles ( Chinese ) are not to bad tho and a doddle to cut. Main issue for me is the quality of some glazes , even on the better wall tiles , there Is usually at least one flawed tile in most boxes , be that a smudged pattern or small biscuit flaw under glaze.Fortunately for me its only one of the big builders that use them :-)All lmho of course.DbD . Tiler of 27 years.

Hi all, having held NXR in the past I bought back in at the end of January as they appeared to be good value and I like the product offering. I have some concerns over the pension deficit and wondered if anyone has an opinion on this?

As gilt & bond yields are so low at the moment which translates to a lower discount rate for pension schemes, and therefore present value of liabilities increasing, do you think this will have an adverse effect on the share price when results are released? Is this what is holding back the share price?

If a low rates environment persists, will the annual overpayment of £2mm have to be increased when it is reviewed?

Thanks to the CEO's 'elegant' solution of giving away s/hlders assets at a 16% discount at a time of property sector outperformance.

The buyer was certainly laughing.

Been invested here for 12 months and have averaged down a few times. The divi is nice, but disappointing that the share price trajectory is invariably downwards. I know the company stated last year it has ambitions to double turnover by 2018, but I honestly don't know if there is any real prospect of that.

The really good thing about this share, 1fox1, is you never need to check the Sp to know what it is.

[1fox1] 18/3/2015 09:44

Very true eeza

Hey just thought you might like a bit of cheering up from my industry lol.

DbD :0)

[hatter2] 17/3/2015 14:26

Well DbD that bit of news did not stick the share price; dribbled down a little more today,
I wait and hope and wait and hope; will the share price ever head north again? Still decent enough divy to help us along.

Thank you Andrew, I share your sentiments entirely.Similar issue with TNI telling me they were not going to issue a Feb update ,then a week later doing just that.

[napoleon 14th] 01/3/2015 11:36

VLK was another - got shot of that too.

[napoleon 14th] 01/3/2015 11:36

NXR & IQE are shares I wasted a lot of time holding, waiting for the big one!
"Dead money" is the verdict, so I watch them hover around the same levels for ages,
whilst patience is ill rewarded....
