LLOYDS is going to FLY At the close, LLOY down over 2% at 52.01. FTSE down just under 2%
LLOYDS is going to FLY frog_in_a_tree: I see that the FTSE is down by 1.6% today. With yesterday’s fall that gives us a drop of about 5%. Oh dear! Hi there Fiat, I hope that you are well. I have decided to stop looking at markets and prices until somebody informs me that the sun is out, summer is here and this coronavirus was just a distant dream. My problem might be will the powers that be allow my grandson and myself to leave these shores, drive around the Somme and return to the U.K. without having a temperature guage or whatever shoved in our faces over Easter? Also, I am due to take my granddaughter to the theatre in London on Saturday and out for dinner as well. Will London still be open I wonder? I know, where’s the corkscrew? I feel the need to douse my worries with a few large glasses of a reasonable Bordeaux… By the by, I came across some photos yesterday of my last visit to Oradour sur Glane. A place that will live long in my memory. I swear that I never heard a bird sing any time I have visited there, even tourists were quieter than is usual. Best wishes TJ

Lancaster Oil Production ( EPS ) Let’s hope it shows 20,000 bpd
Brexit Wars 3 hows the Turnip harvest going… and the German public are really on board…
Brexit Wars 3 Eadwig: So nothing like a total shutdown then? You make me laugh. No you’re right, everything is fine. Absolutely nothing to worry about at all.
Rns 25/2 Interesting RNS. No real news but confirmation that talks continue on many fronts. One line: “the Company intends to use its interim and full year results announcements to provide updates on the status of various collaborations and will not make announcements between these unless a disclosure obligation arises.†A rebuttal to shorters? Any ideas?
Brexit Wars 3 HuwJarse: Manufacturing PMI expected to come in at around 30, the lowest number ever recorded. So nothing like a total shutdown then?
Sirius Crispin Odey has upped its stake in Sirius to 1.4% from 1.3% with the deadline for proxy votes looming on Wednesday. Odey Asset fund has accused Anglo American and the Sirius board of undervaluing the company and pledged to oppose the 5.5p a share cash offer unless it was declared final.
Big world market fall back corona virus StevesShares: Although we haven’t bought any postage stamps since before the prices increased last year, we just wish we had bought even more back then! When the very big rise was announced before the IPO, I bought a couple of hundred quids-worth of 1st and 2nd class stamps because I sold quite a lot of 2nd hand stuff on E-bay and Amazon. My friend who does that professionally bought £4,000 worth on my advice. Increased his profit margins substantially - I should have charged him a consultancy fee.
LLOYDS is going to FLY PrefInvestor1: Hi @trader_jack, Well no it’s not necessarily a problem that you don’t have THE most up to date version. Certain updates were optional and you would need to have gone on the Windows Update page within Settings (the cog icon in the Start Menu) and EXPLICITLY selected to have them installed (by selecting the feature update and selecting download) Ideally you should try doing that if you feel able to do so. Hi again Prefinvestor and many, many thanks. I have followed your advice and my computer now tells me when I check with “winver†that I am now running Version 1909 (OS Build 18363.657) as you mentioned in your earlier post. I thought that the automatic updates that Windows 10 carries out on a fairly regular basis would have done that automatically. I am sure that I won’t be alone in thinking that. “We also need to check exactly what speed processor you have in your PC and how much free disk space you have (not just how big your disk is). Do you know those things ?†I hope I have managed to find that out as well. Accoding to the Properties tab on “This PC†I have an Intel ® Core ™ i7 6700HQ CPU @ 2.60GHz. I did try to copy and paste that information across but for whatever reason it did not want to allow me to do so. As to disk space, I have a C: Windows, D: Data and E: Recovery. My computer engineer set the computer up for me like this when I first bought it and he got it all up and running for me. As it stands my C drive has 52GB free out of 117GB, D drive 838GB free out of 916GB and the E drive 1.5G free out of 15.2GB. I suppose that is some good news if you are correct in that there is not going to be a Windows 11 or even 12. Let’s hope that Windows 10 can carry on for some years yet, at least until I am ready to find myself being chucked into a skip… Again, many, many thanks for all your help and patience. Best regards TJ
Brexit Wars 3 A bit of a silver lining amidst the Corona virus/Covid 19 outbreak. China has put an absolute ban on the eating of and trading in wild animals. About time. This was always a stupid idea and a massive threat to endangered species. IMHO, SBK
Brexit Wars 3 fynne: 150k out of 68million population with the likelihood that those of an age who use “twitterâ€, FB etc will register Just goes to show how dim and out of touch you are fynne. Everybody uses twitter including vast mounts of “silver surfersâ€, companies, all politicians, business people, scientists, doctors, writers, single parent mums. Everybody who is anybody. If you don’r think that you do you are wrong: it generates the stories that you read. IMHO, SBK
