Someone on iii posted that the SEO sp was going a bit cuckoo.
Due to this I could not help but to compare a Cuckoo and Stanelco.
An analogy of the Cuckoo and Stanelco.
The cuckoo lays its eggs in another birds nest, the chick hatches and destroys all the other eggs by kicking them out.
The parent birds then spend all their time and energy feeding the cuckoo chick. Eventually the chick which is now big and fat flies off, leaving the parents who have given their all with nothing to show for their investment.
The cuckoo wins, and whilst the adoptive parents are left tired and empty, it (the cuckoo) is sunning itself on a beach somewhere hot.
OK the cuckoo flies to Africa, so the last bit re the beach is stretching it a bit, but you get the gist.
I appreciate the above post is flippant, but I can no longer take this share/company seriously.
I apologise to those who do.
And yes, I know I have a strange mind.

Robinhood,
Could be. Most people who know me think I am a bit cuckoo, but seriously, we all know that a change of company name usually means, no change of performance, but it can happen.
Problem is with Stanelco's record of wasting money, no doubt they will spend well over the odds to have all their stationary and logo's changed.
Still, willing to be proved wrong.

We all know how straight the management were with us under full market rules. Now we are in the AIM!
Will say no more.

Buy, buy, buy!
Hmm, that's strange, spellcheck keeps changing it to Bye, bye, bye!
Come on Stanelco, oops I mean Biome Technologies, give us a sales update!
Don't knock them Greek, they are AIMing for the top now!

Aiming for the top, V Good.
They changed the name and kept the management.
Me thinks it should have been the other way round!

It might be time to change the thread to the new epic and name.....I don't want to do that, but somebody on this thread who has faith (heavens !) in this company might want to...

Well guys & gals, I'm out! After more than 5 long-suffering years I must say it is something of a relief to get away from this attrocious share.
I've finally realised the 123k loss on this "investment", selling my 2m holding for a mere ~2k.
Good luck to those with greater patience.

Blimmey sorry to hear that Garyble, have a look at PIC... nice rise today but there is more in the bag... This company is a joke and previous history of poor performance, R & D at most, it cannot win contracts and the board are a joke... stay well clear...

Thanks all. It was profit from AHT gains but shame to have lost it anyway. I could be back for more punishment but need to find another multibagger.
I still believe in the products but there always seems to be a hiccup, generally in the form of patent issues.

Balerboy,
Put it somewhere else giving it a better chance of growing rather than the expected gradual decent to umm 1,000!
Having endured the inexorable SP decline over the past 5 years, I don't see it recovering anytime soon.
Even with the Jam tomorrow statement accompanying the dilution.
