The engines have fired up at last for MDX. ( BPRG ) At long last they are being recognised for the force they will become over the next two years. On the cusp of disclosing huge revenue-earning deals with Global pharmacists. These have been hinted at as being unrolled before the years end, but may be in the next days.You still have time to get in at a bargain-basement price before the SP takes off for real shortly.

While. Im a legend in my own lunchboxThe potty trainer is just a chair leg..end!

Ah, it didn't take much to tease TFC out of Tabasco :)
Don't worry I can live with your teasing, you're still my hero, particualrly since you've made so much money today, that really is an impressive amount (1.50).

Are you sure a day is 24 hours? (Courtesy of Wikipedia)

"The word day is used for several different units of time based on the rotation of the Earth around its axis. The most important one follows the apparent motion of the Sun across the sky. The reason for this apparent motion is the rotation of the Earth around its axis, as well as the revolution of the Earth in its orbit around the Sun.

A day, as opposed to night, is commonly defined as the period during which sunlight directly reaches the ground, assuming that there are no local obstacles. Two effects make days on average longer than nights. The Sun is not a point, but has an apparent size of about 32 minutes of arc. Additionally, the atmosphere refracts sunlight in such a way that some of it reaches the ground even when the Sun is below the horizon by about 34 minutes of arc. So the first light reaches the ground when the centre of the Sun is still below the horizon by about 50 minutes of arc. The difference in time depends on the angle at which the Sun rises and sets (itself a function of latitude), but amounts to almost seven minutes at least.

Ancient custom has a new day start at either the rising or setting of the Sun on the local horizon (Italian reckoning, for example) The exact moment of, and the interval between, two sunrises or two sunsets depends on the geographical position (longitude as well as latitude), and the time of year. This is the time as indicated by ancient hemispherical sundials.

A more constant day can be defined by the Sun passing through the local meridian, which happens at local noon (upper culmination) or midnight (lower culmination). The exact moment is dependent on the geographical longitude, and to a lesser extent on the time of the year. The length of such a day is nearly constant (24 hours 30 seconds). This is the time as indicated by modern sundials.

A further improvement defines a fictitious mean Sun that moves with constant speed along the celestial equator; the speed is the same as the average speed of the real Sun, but this removes the variation over a year as the Earth moves along its orbit around the Sun (due to both its velocity and its axial tilt).

The Earth's day has increased in length over time. The original length of one day, when the Earth was new about 4.5 billion years ago, was about six hours as determined by computer simulation. It was 21.9 hours 620 million years ago as recorded by rhythmites (alternating layers in sandstone). This phenomenon is due to tides raised by the Moon which slow Earth's rotation. Because of the way the second is defined, the mean length of a day is now about 86,400.002 seconds, and is increasing by about 1.7 milliseconds per century (an average over the last 2700 years).

Have you been smoking that cheap stuff.you are raving mad! You couldnt tease me if you danced up the Tottenham Court Road wearing a tutu... Whoever the French Connection was.I can see why he fu*k off. Go and have a game of crazy golf you will blend in well.

Christ Scotty.u r as nosey as Mr. Potty. I had a touch on barc. It all went well todayjust for a change. Now thats the kiss of death.chirping.

LoL, you can see why he's my hero scotinvestor, without doubt the best trader posting on AM, he even lets everyone know his holdings and how many. I can't think of any other successful trader who is willing to share that information. Magic stuff for which I'm (and I am sure everyone else is) so grateful. If I had to split hairs though I would say I'm a bit concerned about his dependance (total lack of knowledge) on the buy/sell columns, but I'm sure it was just an over-sight and nothing to worry about ;)

Christ you wrote four lines on your own without a safety net and no cut & pasteId stick now your behind.

Off thread guys, a potential bid is on the cards.

For Immediate Release 17 July 2008




Meldex International plc




Potential Offer




London, UK: Meldex International plc ('the Company'), the specialty pharmaceutical and healthcare company, announces that Steve Martin, the Chief Development Officer and Board member of the Company, has made an approach to the Board of Directors ('the Board') seeking permission to explore the possibility of making an offer for the Company.

Oh look - as if by magic, a cheeky bid appears ........ about as predictable as they come.. it'll be sub 70p / share but designed to flush out something nearer 1 / share.

I think your right Bertsmacks of a designer offer.

quid by xmas lol

Good morning Dil.didnt quite get that one?explain. And please dont ask your mate back!

Well last time someone announced an approach everyone assumed it would be at a premium of around 150% so why can't I this time ?

:-)

The board may accept a lot less than supposed. I think there are going to be a lot of management takeovers of smaller companies at depressed prices and a lot less than the real value of the companies.

I hope that this is not so in MDX case.

have you noticed that along with nearly all shares atm, they have made the spread so large that you can't even day trade it. The price goes up and down but never leaves the spread significantly.

That was a little tongue in cheekyou know I never get over excited Dilalways happy for small mercyand all that jazz.Morning Fred.if the bank balance is going up its good news!

whats going on?

ft and daily mail said early in year that bid would be NORTH OF 1. nothing has changed in company.....in fact products are well ahead in many areas so offers should be even higher.......cant imagine any shareholder agreeing to anything less than 1 quid....especially as most shareholders are 70p plus......in fact this was 8 million loss company years ago and was at 160p!! now its in handsome profit and about to rocket in next 2 years.....work it out
