Off topic a moment - can anyone tell me how long you are allowed to hold cash subscribed to a stocks & shares ISA whilst deciding what shares to invest in? Anyone know a definitive website with the rules clearly set out on this aspect?
Thanks

SD I believe there is no set time limit as long as your "intention" is to reinvest,certainly no problem with a few months.Confirm with your provider tomorrow.

So, what will tomorrow bring???
Anyone got crystal balls? (If so, please don't stand too near a singer with a really high voice. You may find the high voice catching)

There I was thinking that you were the king of double entendre but beat this is you can from the FYB board
"The SEO problem referred to "tooling problems", it appears that the said ` tool`, is not able to vertically integrate, thus causing a huge problem in the `horizontal integration` department.
The management are into deep intercourse on this one, and expect a climactic response soon.
Impotence is not a problem, erm, they think,
lol, and it makes about as much sense as the companies release-banal."
As to tomorrow, I think that the sp might move marginally in either direction in the absence of any hard news.
Fingers (those of you who have them) crossed.

Too right, Oilywag, one can hardly condome such a state of affairs!

Re post 15498 and Ferrari analogy
Excuse me for being slightly sceptical, if this was a direct copy of what Howard White had sent, I would have thought that he would have been more meticulous in his use of Capital letters for his and Ferrari's name.
I would prefer to see the exact copy of the e-mails with the recipient's name deleted if he/she prefers showing the original question and date and time of the answer.
No reflection on the integrity of the original poster of this, but one must be careful not to suckered by manufactured posts.

Always Careful. Have no reason to think this message might be 'manufactured' but the analogy does emphasise the point about patience. I think H/W said it would take '2/3 years' for the ball to start rolling.

Do you know when he meant the 2/3 year period for the ball to start rolling commenced?
Does anyone here have any thoughts as to whether that meant from last year when the exclusive deal was signed with ASDA and/or the length of time that the 200 machines would take to install and be productive?
I ask this question in the light of the contradictory info outlined in post 15490 above about the production capacities for Starpol and in what periods of time.

what a load of kak!!! a formula one engine doesn't see the car until it's been put through rigorous testing in the shop. teams of engineers sit there screwing the arse off the engine in factory controlled conditions, putting it through race conditions over many, many hours. only then does it go into the car. the actual drivers get called in to fine tune and prepare the car set-up. as an analogy it falls flat on its arse. maybe if seo had put greenseal through the same kind of testing they wouldn't be in this humiliating position of constant back-tracking, date re-arranging and releasing vague news to prop up the sp.

I don't recall when the 2/3 year period was first mentioned. Late '05 but I might be wrong.
This will all happen later rather than sooner and anyone who thinks otherwise is deluding himself.
Have held for two years so another 2/3 is of no consequence. I am in no hurry.
(Bos:- It was only an analogy! ie-a comparison between things, often used to help explain a principle or idea)

jtf, then they should have used a better analogy. maybe a sinclair c5 analogy would have worked better :)

I guess you are not an engineer, or have ever worked on any mechanical development.
I have, many times have made parts or equipment, that worked great on the bench, but have to be altered or adjusted when they have been installed on a production machines.
Engineering takes time, days, weeks or months, each modifcation or simple adjustment, has to be tested before you can move on to the next.
Remember Engineering takes time.

jimward, correct in everything you have said. my point is that the analogy is kak. it doesn't work for me.
maybe it's time to stop making excuses for seo. we were promised so much last year. surely, " minor mechanical issues " should have been dealt with before dealing with a company like asda/ walmart? i'm not an engineer but that makes sense to me.

Bos I agree, it is time we stop making excuses for SEO management. But apparenly Greenseal is dead longlive Starpol, this week.

I think the time for promises has past.
I can't see the sp shifting one way or the other until there is are DONE DEALS.
When contracts exchange hands and revenue is forthcoming then we'll see a takeoff.
Until then happy to cross all my intact appendages , sit tight and wait.
The future does look bright , but without money on bottom line and deals in the bag this share will continue to fester.

Could it be that ASDA came to SEO before they were ready after hearing about the ideas SEO had and worked with each other to develop the equipment hence the exclucive agreement.
