Patisear,
Read Stashintheattics post, it does give a bit more but still not much.
I appreciate re confidentiality at these do's but would liked to have more evidence of a good sales force/promotional teams efforts.

Sounds to me that the Easyfair stand was a bit of a disappointment to some; have to say that it does not put me off at this stage. There is a possibility that as ASDA no longer have exclusivity as far as Greenseal is concerned, this has merely been extended to a few other companies, so that for the moment there would be no need to spend time and money advertising the product - that would come through proof of product after it is in full swing. If this is the case then SEO were right to concentrate on Frog products, sales of which look set to leap (sorry!). My confidence is growing daily due to the lack of large scale selling by the institutions involved with SEO; it is now far too late for discreet selling by them and they surely would not risk losing a not insignificant amount of cash at this late stage..................would they?

Mad Pad,
I believe Wrap 100 is a starch based alternative to waxed paper, not a clear film.

Lets face it, if they give a jot about shows around the UK for "Dev's" corner shops then trouble is even closer than I ever thought. Who gives a flying f&*k about these shows. Its about real deals with big companies that count. Oh well, back to Dev? Away for a month's skiing in the USA Oblo, catch u later!

Enjoy your skiing - but keep an eye on the news issued on the 21st March!!
Can't you see what is developing?
They do not need to let us know of everything that is actually happening - would you?

Hi Q -
enjoy the skiing. Apologies to others for going OT, but not much (good)to say about SEO at the moment so I'll keep off that subject so as not to harm the sensitiviies of some here!.
I got back from Zermatt yesterday - back out there next week. Excellent conditions, good off-piste. Prince William (and friends) was there all week on his hols. Decent skier. Not as good as us though, Q!

Garbyle,sorry meant to say Starpol 3000,believe this can be made into a clear film,unlike 2000 which is opaque.

Talking to the guy who has Chinese connections today, and now I understand (though do not neccesarily believe) the link.
The Chinese community buying into SEO are the owners and associates of a Chinese supermarket who are saying that the providers of Chinese goods are ordering the purchase of them wrapped in SEO product because they see it as an environmentally friendly approach to shipping!!
They consider the packaging worthwhile to minimise pollution if and when cargo is lost during sea transportation, as plastic would kill marine life and Starpol would not.
The logic is fatally flawed for obvious reasons, but if there is an order, why should I care??
Secondly, the debate over the 24th being a Saturday was that a press launch was planned for then. I do not particularly believe that either, but who knows.

Blimey Alan, you dont half come out with them. First the imaginary friend and now the Chinamen! China is hardly known for being very concerned about the environment.
You're not a ex-scriptwriter for Jackanory by any chance , are you?

Not talented enough.
And I never said I believed any of it.
i am reporting, verbatim, what is said to me.
Take it or leave it, no skin off my nose.
FWIW, I think I am either being fed a line or the person saying it to me has little, if any understanding of the issues, or of those investing the money. If I were ramping, I would have come up with something much better than that, and wouldn't have included the bits about not believing it.
On the subject of the imaginary friend, those who know me and communicate with me, know this person is very real, and they even know who he is.

Chinese products wrapped in SEO's products on the off chance a ship might sink! I have heard some ridiculous things on this BB but that tops the lot by a long way!

Hmmmm.
Perhaps before anyone else criticises, it may be worth reading the original post.
Check out the twice I wrote that I do not believe this and the once that I wrote the logic was fatally flawed.
Perhaps people only want to read absolute facts. If so visit the RNS pages.
I was reporting what was said to me. No more than that and I was at pains to point out why it is unbeleivable. I could have made up any bollocks, or wrote nothing at all, just left it that elements of that community were seeking to buy in.
It seems honesty is not the best policy on here, but perhaps silence is.

Thats the point. You couldn't make it up. And I haven't.
