or even one worth 4/5p! ..... sure as hell hope not!

Went to Scotland last weekend to see my sister and the roads are just gridlocked and dangerous. And the forecast says snow will be back before christmas.

fascinating, but what's the relevance? ..... i could equally tell you that Aberdeen airport has remained open throughout this cold spell

========

meanwhile XEL's performance over the last few trading days is becoming more than a little unsettling

top up or jump ship.....rf???

Topped up but at the wrong price by the look of it...

it's so easy to get sucked into trying to catch the knife ..... no RNS but also impossible to tell why sp is tumbling ..... head says that bad news is in the offing; heart says it is just MMs playing silly buggers and/or PIs being closed out

those on the other board seem to think the Betty is heading back to Shetland. Other than pro that is who said the complete opposite.....dyor don't know what to think, i topped up yesterday at 290 but like rf could have done better today...hind sight!!

Just topped up again at 258...????....ten days ago that would have seemed crazy when i sold some at 327 !!!!.....hope this is not going to slump....I will take a knock along with others....up to now...this has always delivered.....

Betty won't mind cold ...sleet or snow..rain, fog or anything like that...what they will mind is rough seas and wind....

if Betty has merely retired to port to await better conditions, then that is just tiresome but of course does not alter one iota what the flowtest will ultimately show

At present levels...starting to look like a bargain (or ikea bargain) depends if you like furniture or not.......if there is a possibility of a 400p plus surge on good news....and that 400p plus is a big possibility if the flow goes well....

indeed, but with some difficulty, i shall resist temptation

I've added a lot today...never thought I'd buy so many....

and the awful irony all being that Mr. Pros who continually berated traders for banking prematurely and loosing money, or traders sitting on their hands, and watching profits fizzle away in selling too late, could himself ,have sold @ 330 last week, and rebought today @ 260p...........Thats a 70p consideration/ but trading in hindsight is a grand thing.. So it is. .....Hence why i play the %'s .... ....l do hope for his sake this saga has a ,,,,"and they all lived happily ever after " ending ...l really do / his input on this thread has made a lot of folk a lot of money..... ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,At the end of the day its an MM stock- which says it all

well done RF; you were much braver than me
petit caporal - did you top up?

Saga?

The flow test has been delayed by a week or so - hardly a big deal.

The reaction on BBs merely typifies the rush for instant financial gratification rather than patience. Whether the oil flows remains to be seen, I'm prepared for the eventuality I'd doesn't but remaining cautiously optimistic until proven otherwise.

Won't be selling any more now...in until result..(gulp !)....just hope that my top up is not in time proved to be reckless....

like you cyners i resisted today .... but may weaken tomorrow if another drop continues.,.

Why are people selling here ?...nothing has changed....small delay on testing but so what....great opportunity to buy in.....330p down to 260p....70p drop on ?....nothing.....or is there something we don't know ?......with the massive pay zone, I would advise patience...the trouble is that delays gets investors nervous....including myself because doubts start to settle in....but reading through the rns's again this company looks like it is very well run.....I will say a little prayer tonight for good luck on the flow testing....

BB - MMs must have been listening to you ..... buy now at 248
