from the website....

Timestrip has been recognised at the annual PCD (Perfumes, Cosmetics & Design) Awards in Paris. The awards are designed to single out packaging and design innovations and this year's winners included Lancôme, Chanel and Bobbi Brown.

Chosen for particular mention in the Jury's Special Distinction category, leading brand CARGO Cosmetic's collaboration with Timestrip on its trademark lip glosses received praise for its innovation and consumer appeal. A 'Jury's Special Distinction' diploma was presented to Tristan Allen, Timestrip's Commercial Director, at the PCD Congress and Exhibition in Paris. The congress gathers together decision makers from all the major cosmetics groups, as well as leading packaging suppliers and this year had a theme of sustainable development for make-up, perfumes and body care.

European legislation now demands that cosmetics products have a PaO (Period after Opening) symbol clearly displayed, to show consumers the shelf-life of the product once opened. Embedded in the cap of CARGO's lip glosses, the integrated nine-month Timestrip® enables consumers to keep track of exactly how long the lip gloss has been open and gives them an accurate indication of when it needs to be replaced.

"It's very satisfying to receive another official recognition of our work with CARGO," said Tristan Allen. "This project resulted in a product innovation which was not only functional, but also met the very demanding aesthetic requirements of the cosmetics sector.

Hospital over the Christmas/new year period and several cannulaes inserted!!Talking to a specialized cannulae nurse checking mine one day,yes, my cannulae and she was saying she had seen the product, knew of the award won last year,but said that they were not going to use,too bulky for the patient in present form.Rightly or wrongly this NHS hospital prefer the paper trail method.
I'am currently attending 2 NHS hospitals in my area and the other gave me the same answers to my questions. Only 2 so others could have a dfferent view,just reporting what I know. Without tinkering with the product I fear other hosps will have the same conclusions.
US, may have different ideas.Await with baited breath but this Timestrip cannulae product may not have the legs we all hoped it had. Good luck and cheers to all.I still hold but do not like the SP!!

A placing remains a possibility, but I think that it's boredom.

I'd been expecting a bit of news on the Whittington trials and the Timestrip Medical in N. America, but neither has materialised - which in the case of the Whittington, having made a "Preliminary findings" announcement, was a disappointment. A while ago I sold half my holdings because I still don't trust this management and to have so long without new revenues news worries me a bit because I anticipate that they need a few more orders to be trading profitably. I wonder sometimes if they issue news primarily to prop the price up above 1.5p for last year's placing participants to sell into - in which case we may get some soon.

just wondered why all the sales yesterday and a 10% drop, it's all relative of course but it got me scouring t'interweb for news, nothing though, just the usual tumbleweed rolling by. 'night johnboy.

[barbudo viejo] 27/1/2010 08:47

What the deuce do you mean, 'What the deuce?'?

[tea boy] 26/1/2010 22:09

What the deuce..?

[wisteria2] 19/1/2010 23:11

Yaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn.

[paul augustus] 08/1/2010 13:12

Must admit, had forgotten about Q1 announcement - caught up in the DES frenzy at the moment.

Anyway HNY to everyone - lets hope the announcement is a significant one when it arrives.

[gogoneko] 08/1/2010 12:53

A long shot is that the overhang I've perceived to have been keeping a cap on progress here could have dried up. That would be confirmed if they lifted the bid and no big trades arrived.

There may also be anticipation of the follow from last October's RNS:

"Confidentiality restrictions prevent the disclosure of the nature of the device or the identity of the customer until after the product is officially launched in Q1 2010"

[paul augustus] 08/1/2010 12:45

No idea, although the spread was a nice 1.60 v 1.55 for a while, that didn't last long! If only the share price followed!

Too small a volume to be of any significance there I guess.

[barney28] 08/1/2010 12:20

Just the offer gone up

[monkeywrench] 08/1/2010 11:53

None that I know of.
Over to you Paul.

[barbudo viejo] 08/1/2010 11:33

nice blip in the price. any reason?

[sharethelovearound] 25/11/2009 07:32

timestripIV named in the top ten innovation of the year by the NHS

[59david] 13/11/2009 22:34

I think reality is market in TIME shares has become much more liquid and hence one can easily buy or sell in blocks of half a million or so without it having a dramatic impact on share price which I feel is a good thing. It wasn't that long ago when a trade of this size could have moved the share price by 10%

[soho2] 11/11/2009 17:45

a LOT of late sale....or are they?????????? since the price did not move.

[paul augustus] 09/11/2009 21:32

I tried a dummy trade of 500,000 shares on barclays this morning and they offered 1.89p, so imo these were indeed sells.

[59david] 09/11/2009 20:38

gogoneko

Also not sure what you mean re "company conducts its business". On your earlier question re whether I think they are buys or sells I don't know as I haven't been watchingthe stock recently. Best way of telling in my experience is to try doing a dummy trade on a regular basis. This will give you a good idea as to what level of shares you could buy or sell and at what price. as I mentioned before, based on past trading patterns one has often been able to buy shares at nearer bid than offer

[sharethelovearound] 08/11/2009 22:40

'the manner in which the company conducts its business' ?????

[gogoneko] 06/11/2009 18:26

sharethelovearound,

Individually they're not particularly large I agree, but cumulatively (i.e. many millions of shares) they represent actions of larger shareholders which need to be watched very closely in determining the manner in which the company conducts its business.

[monkeywrench] 06/11/2009 18:00

shares, has your watch stopped ?
It's Friday, get down to the pub.

[sharethelovearound] 06/11/2009 17:55

to put it in context none of these are particularly large trades. 500,000 at 1.7p = £8,500. It is healthy for the stock if it becomes actively traded and the share price has held up very well.
