Or, of course, they will become the new owners.

At this price, everyone can buy 14M shares. It's less than £10K.

However that's positive.

Now @11.594%

@£100k worth give or take.

184,639,722 shares held by the Watsons now.

AGM on 19th September should be interesting!

Currently up 62.5% - should we expect another 4:31 RNS !

Now in auction +75% - I'm confused here.

My best performing share! :o)

Still a pile of poo though!

FFS - in auction +30.8%

Now up 69.2% and that gap almost filled.

Almost tempted to take a speculative punt on some more shares. Would I be able to sell them though?! Perhaps the Watsons would take them off my hands at a premium! :o)

bought @ 2p and 0.05p - Sold half at 0.19, recovered 50% of my money. Will leave the rest for a year then decide what to do.

50% recovery of your money is not half bad in this day and age ahoj! :o)

yep, from 90% loss to no loss represents 90% recovery. Not bad.

I think I will make a good profit on this one, but should hold my nerve during the fluctuations.
I will buy more if it falls further tomorrow.

ahoj - if you have made your loss back you should consider exiting and buying back when it has dropped againb :-))) gl

Does anyone have a clue whats behind Watsons buying spree. Could he buy the company outright.I am holding these shares and I have a very big hope on them.

They advertise so many jobs for UK and US on their website.

If the company was desparate, they wouldn't employ. But the share price and their news say otherwise. Can someone explain why this is the case?

Time to add IMO.

AGM STATEMENT AND TRADING UPDATE

At the AGM to be held today at 09.00am, Paul Golby, Chairman will make the following statement.

"Trading for the year to date remains in line with the Board's expectations.

Trading conditions remain challenging but good progress is, nevertheless, being made in the implementation of the business plan.

The recently secured additional short term funding is allowing the Board to continue to consider all strategic options to realise value. We have ongoing and constructive discussions with a number of interested parties. As previously announced, the Board does not envisage there will be offers for the share capital of the Company.

While these discussions remain on-going, the situation remains such that the existing level of the Group's net debt and the level the Group retirement benefit obligations are considerably greater than the likely value of the Group's business as a whole. Therefore, as previously announced, the Board remains of the view that such options will result in little or no value for Shareholders.

The Board will provide further updates in due course."
