my number one priority is avoiding paying attention to @Keir_Starmer because he isn’t worth it..reverse L’Oréal basically

I try and stay on topic, but can I urge ppl to think twice about using @evrisupportline for their courier. Got within 30m of my house but said couldn’t deliver, they even took a photo of my side gate FFS! They have my mob no as well. Try customer service: we’ll get back to you…

Seems a pretty miserly 16% premium to get a recommendation from the Board of Treat. Wondering if the Chair Vijay Thakrar has enough time to consider this properly? He is only on the 5 plc Boards, of which he is Chair of 2…

This one is for you @dresserman @Tesco 6 Imodium on left, 12 on right. The pricing architecture feels a bit bunged up.

One of my favourite compounders comes to the table again. Avacta issuing 9m shares (2% SII) to part reduce its convert bond & interest. Shares in issue have compounded at >20% Pa for 11 yrs. That’s impressive! The drugs pipeline is still in phase 1 however…”latent value” ?
