15/4/2018 18:23	Well net assets were nearly £25m 7 years ago, now less than £18m. They called losing £200k at the interim stage an achievement. Kind of shows the extent of their ambition.	arthur_lame_stocks	Read Full Thread Reply
19/3/2018 12:16	Yes, you're right, Arthur, there are better plays around. Having said that, I still think the risk-reward profile is attractive here. So I've dropped a very small amount of money in.	cjohn	Read Full Thread Reply
18/3/2018 15:40	I've held these in the past but can't honestly see any point in buying the shares at the moment. The family appear to have no desire to realise asset value for shareholders and are content to let the business gradually eat up the assets. I suppose the last results were a bit better but still loss making. If they return to some sort of profit i'd reconsider but I reckon there are better asset plays around.	arthur_lame_stocks	Read Full Thread Reply
18/3/2018 15:12	Hi Hybrasil, Did you/ make money on that original trade? I bought in here with a very large holding about 14 years ago at around 50p - when it was still a profitable company - and got out at around 100. Sincé then the company's been in slow decline and I've never been tempted till now. . A few years ago they started mentioning their freehold property's potential, but nothing ever came of that.	cjohn	Read Full Thread Reply
12/3/2018 11:19	CJohn Timing is everything. I first thought as you did 10 years ago when I bought here. For both our sakes I hope you are right!	hybrasil	Read Full Thread Reply
12/3/2018 10:03	I have taken a small position here. If the improvement in trading continues, there will be considerable upside. Should they revert to their habitual slow trading decline, there is very strong donwside protection at current price, with the discount to net current assets, and the freehold property, and no debt. So at these prices, there's a more than 50% chance of a small loss or sideways share price movement, but a smaller chance of a much more significant gain.	cjohn	Read Full Thread Reply

05/11/2017 14:55	But they are themselves shareholders and large ones at that. Their lack of strategy is against their own interests. This is a classic value trap. To be avoided....... at current prices, at least.	cjohn	Read Full Thread Reply
03/11/2017 13:19	Perhaps they think they've all got jobs for as long as they want them, at a cost to the shareholders of course.	netnut	Read Full Thread Reply
03/11/2017 09:00	It's so sad to see the same blinkered "strategy" losing another £1m of value - so much complacency, so little quality thinking by the board. Is there nobody who can make David see alternatives? I tried - and failed.	profdoc	Read Full Thread Reply
03/11/2017 08:16	same old story here.	battlebus2	Read Full Thread Reply
03/11/2017 08:00	" Based on the continuing strength of the group's debt free tangible asset base, the board is proposing to pay an unchanged final dividend of £0.1 per share " I assume the directors here do know that 0.1 pounds = 10p idiots	spob	Read Full Thread Reply
09/10/2017 21:58	Think the idea is to drive the price lower so the family can just buyout the remaining shareholders on the cheap...external shareholders seeing price going down becomes a self full filling prophecy....	diku	Read Full Thread Reply
30/8/2017 08:46	I agree, Arthur. I take a look at these every year and always decide against.	cjohn	Read Full Thread Reply
09/4/2017 14:20	I sold out of these some time ago for a tiny profit, nearer breakeven really. There seems to be no point buying these shares whilst the family are happy to keep running down shareholder value on a failing business. I thought when they recruited a Director with a property background they were maybe coming to their senses but it doesn't now seem so. I'll keep watching for a change in stategy but I'm not tempted to buy back in even with the large discount to some quality assets. Arthur	arthur_lame_stocks	Read Full Thread Reply
27/3/2017 09:49	That really is strange. Everyone that wants to sell must already have done so and only left with the hard core holders!	cwa1	Read Full Thread Reply

20/12/2016 17:28	Hi hybrasil Yes I just got tired of waiting for them to realise the value rather than watch it disappear on a failing business. They make losses every year yet never want to give up. Arthur	arthur_lame_stocks	Read Full Thread Reply
20/12/2016 16:28	Im sorry to see Arthur Lame sell out of these. I have been involved here for about 13 years (and the shares were I thought cheap when I bought them) - I am down about 50%. There probably is an average down argument but they have been so dull I dont think I could bring myself to. There has been no update on the property valuations	hybrasil	Read Full Thread Reply
03/11/2016 12:12	Its a large holding ego thingy...	diku	Read Full Thread Reply
01/11/2016 00:03	I also sold out of here as they show no signs of returning the assets to shareholders and are happy to continually make losses on a failing business. I thought the appointment of a director with significant property experience might herald a change of direction but I was wrong. Arthur	arthur_lame_stocks	Read Full Thread Reply
31/10/2016 17:22	Hi Glen, I also reviewed the results here and saw no reason to regret having exited this investment. Breakeven still seems very far away, let alone an acceptable return on capital employed. It is a shame that so much value could sit idle for so long but there is nothing that can be done about it.	rndm355	Read Full Thread Reply
