Hi Sexy. Im afraid you need at least 5000 in each of 3 stocks. So pick another two and put 5k in each or more if you wish. :-)

If the price of Hampers goes down close to Christmas I will sell and hope to buy back a bit cheaper to store for the next couple of years in Me ISA. The large order announced this week makes them a good long term bet (I hope), maybe even as good as NHP has been.

I would have longed Wiggie but it is what I would call highly speculative.

If this was the House of Commons I'd shout "I spy strangers" but its not so a warm welcome to all 'popper inners', drinks are on me 'cos that bloody dog knocked my pint of London Pride over me.
Mop it up pooch and I'll change to a bottle of La Motte Sauvignon Blanc, really chilled and SA of course.
Break our the Pimms for the visitors and a few strips of biltong....
Hils/Jeff..how come no gem in the game?

As usual Me is stuck for ideas of what to buy 'she who thinks she should be obeyed' this Christmas. It will end up being perfume unless anyone can come up with something better!

Old Socks, are you intending to attend my funeral! (besides it is a new washing machine we need as our present one is starting to sound tired)

That's just a mild joshing. If you really want an explosion ask your wife why women have smaller feet than men. Then tell her it's so they can get closer to the sink to wash up.
But enough of this hilarity! I have some serious research to do. Must work out my investment strategy for next year.
