Any punters living in Birmingham Area interested in a Pie, Pint and jaw, one evening in a pub in Birmingham area.
Personally interested in small time investing(gambling), developing an appetite for CFDs. Also developing an interest in Charting or TA.

I use Sharescope, Moneyam, Barclays, Comdirect and IC

In my portfolios would be helpful!


I am feeling thirsty again!

"I am feeling thirsty again!"...your not the only one Fred -): suggestions and dates please?

Mondays, Wednesdays or Thursdays are best for me.

Tuesday, Friday, Sunday sound suitable then. 8-##)

Don't mind time,place or date.

As the weather's so nice how about this Thursday at 1pm ish, I'll let someone else decide which venue? nice to get one with a garden (with hopefully no smokers in it).

Stan, It is p it down here at the moment.

This Thursday is difficult for me, just arranged car overhaul.

I think possibly short notice for some.

Week Wednesday or Thursday at 1pm would be preferable.

Perhaps the Brindley Arms.

Or wherever you fancy.

>Brindley Arms

Do you mean Barton Arms? If you're planning to be there for a full afternoon, I could join you towards the end of your session next Wednesday or Thursday at about 4.20....

PS:(Today) Cains Beer Company Plc. said its first-half
pretax loss widened significantly, hit by declining consumer confidence, a
historic lack of investment in its retail business, rising input costs, the
smoking ban and changes to duty rate penalties.

Hi Fred ................. How you keeping? ............
and hows your portfolio?

Regards
Amar

AMAR, Surviving, Portfolio has been caned, but still alive and hopeful.

Survivor, don't mind Barton Arms, but the Brindley is in the old Gas street basin, where the canal boats moor and is more central and easier to get to from station.

(Back of the Hyatt hotel)

Don't really mind.

Happy to make the meeting at 3pm earlier or later

I propose Thursday (next Week) at the Bartons Arms at 1.30pm. Can't make the Wednesday as I will be helping to save the Brewing Industry by attending the Great British Beer Fest. -):

Theme of The Meeting: How to Short the Footsie without using CFDs or Speadbetting.

Never seen so much rain last night over here...what a thunderstorm.

Must have been typing so didn't see your post Fred, yes 3pm at the Brindley seems more convenient for me as well.

ED: All in favour say i, any other dates, times please post.

Bit of a departure this one as they don't do Real Ale (according to the write up) but seems to have a good ambiance, so hopefully quite.

Well done the Council then..at last.

Aye.

If there is no real ale there is a lot of water!

After the day before that may suffice -):

Fred ..... glad to hear your in fit enough to venture in to the City Centre in search of liquid sustenance ..... so Brindley Arms OK ... I'd get to there about 4.15......I presume it's Thursday?

PS: for anyone arriving by bus, hope you don't get 'numb bum sydrome':

Survivor, Thank you. I am bringing my bodyguards with me as usual. (Just in case Ruth is on the prowl.)
Look forward to sharing my stock miseries.

Which country is 5501 in at the moment?

>Which country is 5501 in at the moment?

Don't know..... Perhaps the Land of Durians.... ;-)

PS: Saw Marstons Pedigree going for 1.99 in the City Centre earlier this week .... at the bar opposite the Hippodrome .....

S87 - I hadn't forgotten. Don't worry..........

Wetherspoons is usually pretty good on price, if not on service.

Why is Fred's portfolio down? I thought he was the Wiz.........!!! Or he thought he was!!!!!!!!!

I'm quite enjoying a daily variance of no more than +/- 375 or so, these days.

"I presume it's Thursday?" Yes.

Have a look at your emails for one of next weeks discussion topics.

Amar, get your MAM email thingy set up.

5501, I listened to a guy who said ACCSYS was a winner.

I think there must be a horse still running out there under that name.
