Biofuels Corporation. (BFC)     

wilbs - 07 Jul 2004 19:47

The main activity of Biofuels is the large scale production and exploitation of biodiesel and glycerine following the construction and commissioning of the initial plant.

Biodiesel is produced from vegetable oils and, as an environmentally friendly product, can make a significant contribution towards reducing green house gases and meeting Kyoto targets.

Frampton have a look over on the other side ,people are starting to take action ,i don't know if it's going to do any good but i thought you may like to know . Cheers Jimmy.

Frampton - 19 Nov 2005 13:34 - 665 of 1184

Thanks Jimmy, I have just had a look over there. Alot of fighting talk going on, sounds good. If alot of retail investors join in, we must have some clout, for the amount of shares held between us.

Delays for Biofuels Nov 22 2005

By Evening Gazette

The WORLD'S LARGEST biofuel plant being built on Teesside may not be completed until spring next year, concerned workers said today.

Billingham-based Biofuels Corporation is building the 250,000-tonne a year biodiesel facility at Seal Sands.

Shares in the company were suspended last week after it went into cash crisis talks with its backers.

The company, which has seen costs rise from 21m to 28m, has already put back the date for the start of production several times after turf was cut last November

In its last update it said it would be in production by the end of 2005 but employees say the company seemed unlikely to meet the deadline.

A source said: "It doesn't realistically look like being up and running by February or March at the earliest."

Biofuels Corporation declined to comment

There you go Frampton ,,, i thought that would be what the problem was ,,,now are the banks going to carry on bailing them out ???...

Frampton - 22 Nov 2005 18:01 - 667 of 1184

Thanks for that Jimmy, just checking in for the first time today (I've been trying to ignore my portfollio as much of it is tied up in BFC). That is very dissapointing news, will the banks want to keep bailing them out? The managment have really let us down with all there lies on completion dates, I don't know what to say at the moment as this makes me so angry. I haven't checked out what the thoughts are over the road, but I don't think I'll bother 'till tomorrow, I want to forget about this mess tonight!

Frampton - 22 Nov 2005 18:02 - 668 of 1184

Thanks for the christmas trees Wilbs, I've only just noticed. I need more than that to cheer me up though...

jimmy b - 22 Nov 2005 18:59 - 669 of 1184

I think a win on the lottery might be the only thing at the moment Frampton .

Frampton - 23 Nov 2005 08:41 - 670 of 1184

I think you're right there Jimmy.
If the news story is correct it is just about the worse news possible. I always kept clinging to the hope that this plant would be producing by the end of december and that had to work in its favour for any funding issues. Now that appears not be the case, who will give them money when the deadline keeps getting put back and back, will it ever work at all?
However is there any reason to believe this journalists' knowledge is any better than the one saying Toscafield would put up more money at 80p a share?
As always the company leaves shareholders in the dark yet again.
I hadn't realised when I put so much money in this share how much of a gamble it was, I think I might well have ended up better off if I'd put it all into lottery tickets instead!

To any shareholders out there, David77 on ADVFN is collecting a list of small share holders, in case collectively we might wield more power. Email him at stonebanks@ntlworld.com with your name, amount of shares held, and whether you hold certificates or they are in a nominee account, if you're interested.

Is Blair clever enough to use the opportunity. He failed to help British Energy when it was cheap.... Tax payers are now paying the full price for it.

BGY was 3.5p at the time its shareholders were begging the government to help.

Frampton - 23 Nov 2005 10:37 - 672 of 1184

Sorry, but I can't see the goverment helping us out of this hole.

jimmy b - 23 Nov 2005 10:49 - 673 of 1184

Neither can i !!!,if you think Blair gives a s...t ,think again ,
Frampton you may have a point about journalists ,they are looking for a story ,what ever it is .. However i tend to believe that the plant will be delayed and that's why they are in further talks . Do the bank bail them out (again) or as they are saying over on the other side ,try to steal it . You may think i'm an optimist but i'm not sure we have lost all, i'm 50 - 50 ..

Frampton - 23 Nov 2005 11:05 - 674 of 1184

I agree Jimmy, the plant being delayed seems the most likely reason for more funds being needed, just clutching at straws here. I hope you are right to be optimistic, I don't know what to believe. I'm trying to get used to the idea I have lost everything, then if we do get anything back, however small, it will seem like a bonus!

What happened to BFC? Is it suspended?

jimmy b - 23 Nov 2005 19:45 - 676 of 1184



No it fell over

Frampton - 24 Nov 2005 08:59 - 677 of 1184

LOL jimmy!

Frampton - 25 Nov 2005 08:40 - 678 of 1184

I hope I was wrong in post 658, that there was more chance of getting something back from LGB than BFC....

jimmy b - 25 Nov 2005 08:47 - 679 of 1184

Lets hope you were ,that looks dead and buried ..

Frampton - 25 Nov 2005 08:50 - 680 of 1184

Ah well, it's only money!

jimmy b - 25 Nov 2005 09:05 - 681 of 1184

I didn't know you were in that too Frampton , if you are,, let's hope for a good outcome from BFC .

Frampton - 25 Nov 2005 09:45 - 682 of 1184

I had a small gamble on it - at least I was aware that was a gamble. I thought I had invested in BFC, how wrong can you be?

jimmy b - 25 Nov 2005 09:58 - 683 of 1184

Funny i was looking at a shares mag from summer,, blue sky shares ,,BFC was 180 with a broker note as dirt cheap !! ,,i'm usually impatient ,but held on with these .
