We could talk about 50% of how well or bad the share price is doing ;)

For a brief moment there I thought I'd stumbled across the SAGA bulletin board... ;)

DR_Smith, Lol still waiting for meeting to start!!!!!. gbh2 about 50,000 miles per year is normal for me but I enjoy being out on the road.

[gbh2] 16/8/2019 11:26

I'm ever so pleased all that is over for me, I used to do around 37000 miles a year now it's 3000 to 5000 depending on the number of holidays.

Jugears:
" I will be stuck in a meeting in Manchester from 10.30 for a couple of hours "
You are a very naughty boy, you should be paying attention to the meeting, not typing to us - even though we are more important! ;-)

Earlier in the year I was stuck in snow between Buxton & Ashbourne for 4 hours!

[dr_smith] 16/8/2019 09:57

Scariest drive of my life was in Derbsyshie.
Leaving Macclesfield hospital, heading past Rudyard lake to Leek for drive south. From normality and clear roads, there was 2 foot of snow in less than 1 hour. No other vehcles around, low visibility, was clocking every building I passed in case I needed shelter. It is an undulating road and I could feel the car (Focus) traction system having to work hard and having to guess where road was, assuming ditches to sides on the smoothed terrain. That part of UK often suffers with snow, but it was the speed of change that made it so memorable.
Still, you should be OK in August, apart from maybe a burst dam!

LSE open for business

Wish you better luck than I used to experience when driving up to a factory in Bolton that I was contracted to visit weekly, I always seemed to be driving into a dark cloudy area in which it rained every day!

So much better driving down through sunny Derbyshire as I headed back to Corby.

[jugears] 16/8/2019 09:27

gbh2-Looks like later today, I will be stuck in a meeting in Manchester from 10.30 for a couple of hours followed by a leisurely drive back through Derbyshire. so not much stock watching to day

[gbh2] 16/8/2019 09:13

The market kicked in at 9am last time this happened.

[wfl1970] 16/8/2019 09:12

How unfortunate for any Woodford Fund investors - now, this morning, they can't even take money out of their other investments either...

[jugears] 16/8/2019 08:58

Oh well at least they are not going down !

[gbh2] 16/8/2019 08:44

"The London Stock Exchange has delayed its opening on Friday morning due to a 'potential Trading Services issue', the exchange said.

Due to open at 8am, trading in FTSE 100 and FTSE 250 companies could not start, with the LSE saying it will provide further updates.

The last time there was a significant delay to the opening of the exchange was in June last year, with the market opening at 9am instead of 8am due to a software 'technical issue', although the LSE gave no further details at the time."

Good morning Jugears, I hold a ring fenced number lloy intended for my Grandchildren the rest of my holdings are flexible, however my portfolio is so badly hit atm I'm finding other things to do on a morning rather than sitting here trading.

That said here I am & the the market looks knackered, can't help but wonder if this is linked to whatever happened last Friday with the power outages.

[jugears] 16/8/2019 08:09

gbh2_ Just seems to be following same pattern as last year not that this worries me,And whilst there low I get more shares for my dividends which is essential for me reaching my 5 year target holding, Al planing to increase holding in Lloyd's which is long over due a rise IMHO.

[gbh2] 16/8/2019 07:23

I considered your previous post re 130p, should that happen I'll find some cash but meanwhile I'll jut keep reducing my ave.

[jugears] 15/8/2019 20:24

Was tempted but have this gut feeling this is going to 1.30 before starting to rise again, That said there have been some good buys recently & several brokers recommending buy.

[gbh2] 15/8/2019 18:09

Picked up a few more today.

[jugears] 15/8/2019 17:53

I do get a very good dividend but take them in shares, I have a strict investment policy of investing in companies I like as far as working for & PSN & BVS are not on my priority list & not to keen on bdev either But do some bits for them. It also helps that I know people at Tw from site up to management.

[spcecks] 15/8/2019 17:10

JUGEARS I am also building a stake in here so have been buying on dips....you must receive a good dividend from these with that amount of shares....mines are spilt in the sector with BDEV,BVS,and PSN.

[jugears] 15/8/2019 16:38

You obviously live in London or the south when you say falling ?

[bhafcseagull] 15/8/2019 16:37

I'm quite happy house prices are falling, i have a H2B loan and want to convert it at some point and the less my house is worth the better. As for my TW shares thats the long view so keep and hold forever.
