I think you'll find Gausie waiting for a big weekend announcement knowing that he can buy at fridays close (similar to the legs and bums with ANL this week.

Its not always an advantage. A share ramped in the Sundays can have a nice rise on Monday but fall back over the rest of the week. Dont forget once you put all your money in one stock you can only ever have one stock as you can only do one buy/sell each weekend.
ANL is down at the mo and I expect it to drift lower this week. (might be wrong)

Hmm, buying on a Friday?
Would hate to be accused of "over-reacting" but if we buying at Friday close should we not be forwarding our selection on Friday close?
How about it Poochy, I'm also extremely good at "nagging" don't you know ;o)

Hi fellow girls on top. Had a few days away with Marcel in Tossa Del Mar, Kylie and Brad were taken temporarily into care when i was away as i forgot to tell them I was off on hols. They seem stronger for the experience. Nice of the council to put them up.
Looks like our performance needs some enhancement so we either give the market some viagra or start bribing Goldog to change the rules in our favour. Anyone know what Poochies weaknesses are?
Bye

I agree with Brockman - can we post changes by Friday midnight or something?
Morning Maggie - hope you have got a tan to die for now, just right for
that daring evening dress that plunges to the waist!

Nice to start off with the "GIRLS ON TOP" but it will be even better when "THE WILD BOYS" come from behind!!!

Indeed...giggle!
I certainly wont be adding to my profits in a hurry if things carry on
like this! If it doesn't turn round soon I can see it will be beans

Brockman / bunny
Poochie gets very cross if you try to change the rules after the game has started. Same advantage / dissadvantage for everyone so lets leave it as it is, is my suggestion.

Typical of a banking man! The rules are the rules....(giggle)
(Morning JeffMack!) All rules within reason are open to be questioned
and sometimes can take a little warping, bending or similiar

Question is did we know this Friday rule at the beginning?!! We Girls on Top (now third bottom) put many hours of research and strategy into our selection .... (giggle, giggle) and this could have been a determining factor we missed....
opto- ladies get cross???? :-))

I have been known to tell little white lies :-))
