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

Must be.

..Ian's of course -):

We will die of thirst! 8-)


Mind that home brew he brought out last time it was his round tasted good.


That was 4 years ago.

Ian, you are in the lead again I see in the footsie comp.

Aye, not for the first time during October; but I think at this rate, by the end of the month, I wouldn't have been sufficiently pessimistic. Now the Far East has the frets, I think it could well spiral down a bit yet...........

You could be right, we have had the banks go down, how about the Insurance Companies now?

IIRC, this was what finally "did" for the market after the "dot-com" affair. Insurers were obliged to sell - but it did lead to some good opportunities afterwards!

This is true.

.... back out of hibernation now ..... not traded anything since last meeting ..... still sitting it out whilst holding on to some shares ..... was offline at home for a while ..... now back ..... but slightly busy with a job and a university course .... but happy to engage in conversation etc at a drinking establishment before Xmas....

Nice to here from you again, let us know when you are available (hours and days) and we will have to get something organised again.

Good to hear from Chris.

Like to meet up sometime before XMAS, just to see how much older you all look.

But at the moment I am limited physically and not quite sure I can make it.

Having said that a Chinese of Asian meal and a chat does seem attractive.

Chris, I think being out of the market for a good while was a sensible action.

What Uni course are you doing?

Email me sometime. I am interested for various reasons.

I doin' Applied Linguistics ain't it ......
Provisionally.... anyone fancy the last Thursday of November (the 27th) .... ?

Seems possible.

OK for me at the moment.

I propose The Barton Arms, they do a Thai menu among other delights.

Other suggestions please.

I'm happy with The Bartons Arms ....
Fred .... I'll e-mail you this evening ....

OK, Fred, Ian and Amar what are your preferences venue wise?

Stan, I think Ian is in hiding!

Survivor, I was interested as one of my daughters amongst others degrees has a MSc in linguistics.

She is a perpetual student.

Excuses for non attendance will not be acceptable, punishment being buying the first round and there after )-:

Fred ..... just sent you an e-mail (before I logged in to this board this evening) ....
isn't it expensive being a perpetual student nowadays?
