Any punters living in Birmingham Area interested in a Pie, Pint and jaw, one evening in a pub in Birmingham area.
Personally interested in small time investing(gambling), developing an appetite for CFDs. Also developing an interest in Charting or TA.

I use Sharescope, Moneyam, Barclays, Comdirect and IC

Survivor 87, didn't know Highgate Brewery were in trouble. Food usualy only average at these medium size chains (Fullers) although their Ale I quit like.

Fred, Yes that time is fine by me.

Are, Joan Baez a name from the past but never seen here live.

Joan Baez with my eyesight looked as beautiful as ever. Her voice and choice of songs still pull the strings. Memories of the good times of the Hippy period and flower power, for those who survived them.

Survivor, look forward to meeting again. Ask at the porters or bar to direct you to Birmingham Pie and Pint.

Hope all got home.

Although the evening was a repeat picked up a few points.

Had a look at TSCO last night and this am. and bought a few S/bets. Chart looks promising and usual range of movement is relatively tight.

Bit slow for portfolios but on margin worth while.


Stan and Survivor, noticed that Birmingham Jazz Festival starts 23rd of July. Don't know whether you like Jazz, and fancy a pint and chat at the Brindley Arms before the floor show? Haven't been to one for some years, but enjoyed it when I did.

No problems getting home.

Lots of basics covered last night which I do think is important to revisit.

I'm not a great Jazz fan but under normal times I would have been keen to come, but I have lots on at the moment as you know Fred. Will certainly re think nearer the date though.

Home OK. At least there was no hardsell at the seminar. Just the last slide as the 'reason' for holding it and the special offer available if you sign up same night..... Doesn't seem to have been any follow-up phone calls from CMC... (unlike the hardsell after other seminars in Brum from Traders Uni and WinInvest).

The Birmingham Jazz Featival (as sponsored by Tesco) is on at the moment. It's 6th to 15th July - so this coming Sunday is last day.... website is at

The event seemed to suffer from a change of organiser last year as it was a bit uncoordinated. But this year seems to be back to be being fairly well organised.

Some acts were at Barton Arms - pity about the parking there - but had an excellent meal there yesterday aided by a few pints of .....

Beer Name: Helter Skelter
Brewer: Oakham Ales
Strength: 5.0% A.B.V
Description: A strong golden ale with an intense hop aroma and character. Hops and fruit oscillate above a refined bitterness. A very drinkable beer - watch out for the hangover the next day!

See you next month....

PS:

Fred ... only taken a quick look but only Jazz thing I can see starting on 23rd July in Brum is the 'Annual Jazz & Blues Festival Concert' :

Venue: The Plough Hotel Function Suite
Date: Monday 23rd - Friday 27th July 2007
Time: 7pm -1am

You two (plus any new comers) go ahead and set a date/time and I will try and fall in line.

How about Wednesday 15th (early, mid or late afternoon) or Saturday 18th (lunchtime'ish)...?

Ok to both at the moment!

Where?

Wednesday at the Old Stock?

Wednesday 15th at Old S is fine with me .....

Should be there at the moment, what time? remember it got noisy at about 5pm so early rather then later.

2pm any good. Should be smoke free now and relatively quiet!

I'm trying to get something similar going in Bristol - but its proving difficult to rouse much interest.

What sort of response of you had so far and do you have any tips as to how to encourage people to ome along?

Good luck in the meantime
