re: shell Hi Kozzie,

Point taken, you and everybody else needs to ask questions and I suppose, question people when they seem to have the inside know. As I said I only rang him that day and have done this on the odd occasion. ME certainly keeps his cards to his chest, but maybe he slipped on this occasion due to the carnage that was happening to the SP and said something that he should not have said. I wish that he had given a more detailed announcement to the ASX.

One question which I forgot to ask ME was - What would have been the smallest size number of barrels of oil that Shell would have said "Yes" and taken the option. I would of hoped that this would have been in the contract so that Shell just didn't have an open hand to do what they liked.

Maybe someone else would like to ask ME and then post on HC.

Good luck to us all and I hope that there is some oil down there.
