automatic,
apology accepted, but please get it right in future or dont post. There is so much rubbish being posted with no regard to research - to say its 6 or 7 weeks since SEO stated the contracts were being finalised when its actually 7 days is really unforgiveable from a genuine poster, thats why it seemed to me you had joined the ranks of the nutters who come here to cause trouble.
Were II or Bling nutters?

Good news, Great news and some other news
The good news is we won today.
The great news is that means we got promotion to division 2.
The other news is my imaginary friend has confirmed that Asda is definitely on. The decision is made, it is most definitely happening, and on a good scale. No turning back now.
To be fair I had heard this from other places, but to have it confirmed by this particular source is about as good as an RNS. Timescales are still vague, but there is no way he can see it not happening, and as I say, on a big scale. Whether this refers just to GS or Starpol and GS, I do not know. His exact final words were, "Yes. Your packaging company is a certainty for Asda".
As always, DYOR and don't take my word for it, but I am a very happy bunny tonight.

From a very wet and soggy week in Tuscany your post has cheered me up! Not been following this week, just miserable being here on a motorbike in such weather...
Back in 2+ weeks - keep the side up eveyone.
Now, whats happened to CHP in my absence?

Hi Alan,
I hope you are right.
Anyhow, you have made my night!
Everything was looking so glum and it was really depressing.
Thanks for sharing that with us.
A big kiss.

If your imaginary friend is 100% right, and I don't doubt your own personal integrity in reporting the news, then I am really looking forward to the deafening silence from those who were forecasting the imminent demise of SEO.

Thanks for that Alan. Sounds good at last.
Tony, I'm in Tuscany myself next week - see what you can do to improve the weather, please!

Last minute getaway off to Antwerp, Belgium in a few hours, fingers crossed for some news whilst I'm away.

if i am proven wrong, i shall be more than happy to stand up and take all the flak going ..... if i am right, will oily and his pals act in a similar manner ... or will i and several others be treated to their "deafening silence"?

To balance what i wrote yesterday. Asda was a contract that had been signed and publicised by RNS. My friend simply confirmed that the problems are behind them (though he never specified what they were) and that it really is all systems go, as of now. We already new this, to some degree, so it is not new and if the markets do always get it right, then that is no change to any previous position.
He has no direct link to SEO and so the funding issue was not something I spoke to him about, so no change on that score either. Given his role, I would be astonished if he was not aware of that issue, though.
In essence, all I am reporting is confirmation of what we already know. very shortly, we should see GS salads and fresh produce Greensealed in Asda, with more to come later, and a fairly major hint that WM like what they see.
The really important thing is that we got promotion. That was the real reason for my euphoria yesterday evening, and I am likely to bang on about it all winter.
