TANKERLaurenrosemarni.i'm with you...thank fu*k for common sense.lloy at over a squidcut and runand put on the spikes!!!!

i dont think halifax has common sense from any of the threads that i've read with his comments......mind you wasnt it halifax that went almost bust year, lol.

HalifaxI love your quotetax avoidance is quite acceptableit is when it suits youwe are not talking about a VAT drinkif it is acceptablelets all do itI have a feeling you would get a vote of no confidence in Parliamentbut to balance the argument poor old Sir Philip Green might give you his approval

sensible investors can see the value in LLOY whereas silly little scibblers can't see beyond the end of their "pencils"!!

The "SOUR GRAPES" bunch are back


Sour grapes definition:

Sour grapes is the false denial of desire for something sought but not acquired; to denigrate and feign disdain
for that which one could not attain. This metaphor originated from the fable The Fox and the Grapes by Aesop,
where the protagonist fox fails to reach some grapes hanging high up on a vine, retreats, and rationalizes
that the grapes are probably sour anyway.

                                   

Halifax... does that make you a sensible investor?Im so glad you felt the need to explain.I put my success down to being very luckyand having plenty of lead in my pencilare you non-dummycile?

we should have written "little pencils".

Ive gone from being a pencil to a bunch of grapesthat reminds metime for a drinkI bow to thee oh master save me fallen as I am into this sea of birth and deathI remain luckybut how long can this continuei wish you well..

FSA orders Lloyds to stay in the special assets scheme

lloys have now had 12 months to sort this out . and what have we had from them nothing the board are useless and now we have a failure from citi a dead duck which has ben dead for years he is a plonker

Lloyds are prepared to raise a huge amount to withdraw from the APSthe FSA has trumped themwould you want to hold in a stock that is prepared to see its sp plummet through such capital raisingI am a gambler but I wouldnt back a horse to win with a bookmaker that owned it.seems a bit obviousbut then I am a lucky thicko

Sir Win was born in 1941 in Germany. He enjoys dual citizenship - Germany & UK. He joined Schroders in 1966. He became Chairman of Schroders in 1995 when it was valued at 30 million. In 2000, Citi bought Schroders Investment Division for 1.3 Billion. Remember that he was initially appointed Chairman of Citigroup Europe - so not responsible for the US sub-prime writedowns. He was appointed Group Chairman in Nov 2007 - only months before the crash. IMO Lloyds are lucky to have such a worthy individual at the helm - Any cash call will be modest, if at all. Proceeds from sale of Insight due soon, bank making 1bn profit per month, conversion of Preference shares to Ordinaries will bolster the balance sheet, and hopefully a Sovereign Wealth Fund will put up any balance to prop up Reserves. Should the EU force Lloyds to sell huge parts of the business, the Bank will appeal & drag out the argument for 5 years - by which time all will be forgotten and the SP back up to 5, Govt paid back & lovely Divi's too!! Be brave & continue to hold these beauties - YOU WILL BE REWARDED!!

If you are a holder in lloyyou have just been saved by the fsanow there is an enigmado I need to repeat?

tabasco - yes, I am a serious investor in LBG. Having read your posts I take it you are not. If I am correct, please may I ask why you bother to post here?

tabasco

re - i wish you well..

I am well alright, and certainly do not need you help, I speak my mind maybe once to often, but at the same time I am right once too often also, about the grumpy lot, most likley your included.

I am doubling my profits on LLOY, maybe I am a better investor than some of you, and just now I am on TOP of the world, I have sold SKR for a 47.60% profit, bought on 9th September, yes less than 10 days ago, so I close the bargain on a T +6, because I bought the stock on a T+15 days, meaning I didd not have to pay for the stock.

Just cheking PXS now, on a large profit, but till one sells, it can not be counted, just like LLOY at the moment.

The timing of the buying is what makes one succesfull on the share business, naturally the timing of selling is once again the point, that some of you missed to put a stop loss at the right time, and now have become as I said earlier "Sour Grapes"

I will celebrate the ocasion with some large Whisky later instead of "tabasco".

cheers

SmartyI think what you are asking is"have I any interest in seeing lloy SP drop"I have no interest in Lloyds whatsoeverother than back and lay plenty of black horsesI just think investors are going to get screwed for a second timeI wish you all the luck I wish for myself.

I dont profess to being a Master.lucky thicko is more meI do not have sour grapes I wish everybody welland always have donepeople that know me personally.. would tell you I laugh my way through lifeI could list my successes as welland would need double your spacebut nobody likes a smart arsegood luck with your lloyBTWI am a Brandy ManScotch is so Wetherspoons?

shorters of LBG will get their fingers burned - trust me - I am a Banker!

Right to reply and taking the PISS

re - I am a Brandy Man

I call them W#nkers the ones using "tabasco" as a "nickname" more like "winos"

To your knowledge that you have none, just BIG Mouth but no trousers , brandy is just a cheap "COGNAC"

re - would tell you I laugh my way through life

So if you are a "Brandy Man" it must be when you are wearing a - Ladies Skirt -
so if you drink the right thing "COGNAC", most likely then " stilettos " will be added to your life style.
