Yup media, has just as bad a name of course - especially in the US with their leader Trump.

I walked into a job 4 weeks after leaving college and stayed in that same job (lighting cameraman), on that same programme all my working life. It was the show's very first season so they weren't so picky as to who they hired.

The show is American, although It was part based in London with 5 producers, editors, researchers etc. Why London, because this was long before the internet, and if you wanted to find and research foreign stories, London with it's colonial reach and broad print media was much better than looking in the U.S. which tended to be much more inward looking.

The programme had it's 50 Birthday this year and still going stong:

I'm 52, have 150k of these and if the Goodship Unicorn comes in I'm retiring :-#)

Oops - no. Now I remember you were media !.

Spike - Such travel is often oilfield trash. Is this the case ?.

Stephen Voller founded Voller Energy(VLR) which looks like it wound up and delisted in Dec 2009 due to not being able to raise funds during credit crunch.

That’s the RNS version - not sure if there is a back story.

Edit: lots on ADVFN! Volsung May have a view on VLR!

There's no momentum with the shares today, but they are trying there heart's out to get to a blue finish.

[pshevlin] 04/7/2018 13:50

What's all the noise about Stephen Voller? He seems OK to me.

[diversification] 04/7/2018 13:45

Here comes the next tick up. 148p close :-)

[spike_1] 04/7/2018 13:43

(Fest - close your eyes for a moment)
Dim Tim and a new sidekick Kevin Taylor, are obviously getting very nervous about their shorts and have been attacking our leader again just now - how foolish ;0)

Somebody shout to Fest he can open them now.

MJ - it was an auto correct on an earlier post (pied a terre) about wanting a London pad (home)

[club sandwich] 04/7/2018 13:31

Whinge. Moan. Grumble.

Are we there yet?

[spike_1] 04/7/2018 13:30

Re: We’re all feeling very chipper today !: Particularly since there are so many wrinklies and crumblies on this thread, who are supposed to be grumpy by default!

[club sandwich] 04/7/2018 13:30

I am Spartacus, and so's my wife...

[willoicc] 04/7/2018 13:29

Nooooooooo. I am Spartacus.

[mj10] 04/7/2018 13:29

Spartacus
I am lost with the London pies and terry

[johnveals] 04/7/2018 13:27

We’re all feeling very chipper today !

[spike_1] 04/7/2018 13:21

Since we're all being open and honest - I'm not Spartacus and I apologise for all the times I said I was, but I have also been selling although not recently, it was first time this got to around 120, not because I particularly wanted to but I've been paying of my bro's mortgage, and that's all but complete now save for a couple of k.

At 71 I will want to sell some over time, but certainly not yet.(I have %60 of my holding left, and will add significantly on major news).

I am lucky enough to already have my London pies a terry, but have also used my VRS sale funds to completely re-vamp it top to bottom. I also have a lovely car, and since I traveled very extensively whilst working (over 120 countries - some many times - not all nice of course: Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Iran to name a few), so for me holidays somehow don't seem particularly necessary.

And I need also to admit a little lie.....
actually I am Spartacus ;0)

spot on ash

[ashehzi] 04/7/2018 13:10

MJ10, i guess it depends on the goal and I must say, goal should be defined. Once it is defined, you can quantify it and then buy/sell accordingly. No doubt, people have different needs at different times and people buy so they can sell some day based on what they think is acceptable profit to them or to have a good sleep. Some have to pay credit bills, buy cars/homes/holidays or help others in the family. Like they say, each to their own. Buy/sell is fine as long as we are not using that position to exploit it to own advantages using forums etc. Being fake is wrong, being honest isn't.

[borg45] 04/7/2018 13:06

Just bought another 20k shares couldn't get them in one go two lots of 10k

[club sandwich] 04/7/2018 13:04

graphite - snap!

[mj10] 04/7/2018 13:03

everyone can say they wont sell but if vrs hit 2.50 tomorrow morning I guarantee there would be a stream of sells with pis booking holidays buying cars or just top slicing to buy cheaper later.

Move to Cheltenham it will put 10 years on your life. I moved here in 1998 and have been trying to work out for the past 20 years what people over the age of 40 actually do here work wise. It also has one the best oncology centres outside London. And Versarien of course.
