Thank you very much skipper and shavian for those reports. Its tremendous to have this additional information. Not that I have any problem believing the story, but it is a great confidence boost for those who start to waver caused by the endless stream of rubbish coming from the shorter crowd.

You close those ears Rog, thats the way son.

Damn - I thought I had the grey cloud conjurer on filter!

Naysayers have yet to be proven wrong at least in all details.Orders or quarterly figures will hopefully do that as I have a lot of cash invested here and some of us want to put more in but at the moment we are staying our hand. Even if it costs more at some point caution is required.Nevertheless many thanks to those who relayed the content of the Cardiff meet. It provided a little more flesh on the bones.

Very many thanks from me, too, skipper and shavian. Such well written pieces, so vividly portraying VRS and Neill, so helpful to an LTH in the face of the invincibly foolish naysayers.

He said before he liked starting companies when all the hard stuff was working out. He would only step back if a fantastic replacement could be achieved

Makes my £2.60 quite reasonable :)

Thank you for excellent posts Skipper and Shavian.

The only comment I would have is that £1bn cap. seems very low for NR to step back. It is only about £7 a share at the current number of shares in issue and will be even less with China's 15% added.

Usual VRS deflection. Let's get everyone focused on this shirt. What about BIGT? Didn't even make it to being one of "the five" in a tweet yesterday. Looks like Neill forgot what they were.

Graphene Inks are cheap to produce. GO can be used. I doubt there's more than 10p of graphene in there but since we are never given any commercials how do we know?

The deal is with MAS research not MAS. It's a smaller research arm. If you look at their website lots of small startup companies are working with them. Once again a big song and dance but no orders.

Will we see significant graphene revenues reported 12th December?

Many thanks to the SAS (Skipper And Shavian) for great write ups of the Cardiff event. All music to my ears. Greatly appreciate taking the time and effort to share

Wife and self been away at the seaside in the campervan for a couple of days with our border collies, taking full advantage of the rain-free spell. Many thanks to Skipper and Shavian for the feedback from Cardiff.

Negative screechings from the usual suspects have ceased to matter - the company is clearly on track, and those who currently play nefarious games will be blown away like autumn leaves as the story progresses.

"He added that around 100 other projects were now jostling for position behind the big 5"

its all about the quality.

[luckyorange] 04/12/2019 08:00

Good that MAS approached VRS.

"Neill Ricketts big 5 is different on the vox podcast to what he said on Twitter"

can't even keep his story straight. Doh!

[club sandwich] 04/12/2019 07:58

"Good reports from Skipper and Shavian, but their big 5s are different"

shhhh! we can do without troublemakers like you pointing out discrepancies like that...

[1teepee] 04/12/2019 07:56

No but the opportunity was smaller then and now it's bigger

[1teepee] 04/12/2019 07:56

Neill Ricketts big 5 is different on the vox podcast to what he said on Twitter

[alchemy] 04/12/2019 07:54

It's not five any more ! That's why. That was the takeaway from the whole thing, well for me.

[pandar] 04/12/2019 07:54

Skipper & Shavian, thank you very much for taking the time to report: It's greatly appreciated

[superg1] 04/12/2019 07:53

Now Ray has gone from Hayd here is one of the rumours from the time which shows the difference between real business deals and winging it.

As many know Haydale don’t produce graphene. Anything they had on sale as graphene (some on the goodfellow site) showed it to be 50 layers thick.

Such multi-layer graphite is cheap and won’t perform on the spectrum of gains that few layer does.

So when Hayd went on the hunt for graphene of few layer, having suggested it was cheap to partners, they found it isn’t.

End users don’t want the junk, if they did they can get it from 100’s of producers doing that in bulk.

The key has always been few layer.

VRS have all of the interest not through luck and enthusiasm, but by hard work with the right product which is impressing huge names as it’s what they are looking for.

[alchemy] 04/12/2019 07:49

All leaks from Wales are good.

[ridicule] 04/12/2019 07:46

Many thanks for the feedback Skipper and Shavian, greatly appreciated.

[club sandwich] 04/12/2019 07:43

Did ANYONE believe back in January that we’d be in this situation? A CEO who makes statement after statement - most recently that BIGT would be delivered by the AGM - never delivers on any of them and then dismisses his failure to deliver as just one of those things, stay tuned for even bigger things at some comfortably (for him) indeterminate point in the future.

Time for him to go. Failure should have consequences.

[club sandwich] 04/12/2019 07:35

Hey Skipper. No mention of why Ricketts' old dad was there? Any business reason, or did he just have nothing better to do of an evening and fancied going along to see his son fawned over by the sheep? Y'all can criticise me all you like, it's just water off a duck's back. But the facts are plain: here we are into month 12 of what was trailed as a 'mind-blowing' year and that utterly useless incompetent Ricketts still hadn't delivered a single thing of significant commercial value.
