Ann: Significant oil discovery offshore Senegal, page-69

Well what a nice surprise for some of us old timers. I remain quietly confident but given the last month of steady increases I still think the rise tomorrow will be measured but happy to be proved wrong by the market. It always was about Senegal when I invested back in 2008, the one we referred to as the "elephant".

Meerkat you remind me of the bloke who sits by the side of the roulette wheel noting all the spins and telling the punters where they should place their bets for the next spin but you never bet yourself!!

I have enjoyed the posters of Freehold as an experienced campaigner and holders should refer to his posts at the close of trade tomorrow.

Oligarch - I note with great mirth you are now a holder. You were very close to being in the Meerkat camp - nice to see you could make the jump to our side.

looking forward to following the action in the morning here in the West where Far was started many years ago!

cheers and here's looking up your undies
