Crisis, I'm so glad you stuck with it. You've always been a harsh critic when we were going through years of excruciating patience/pain but we have certainly got there in the end. You have kept us all sane by your humorous posts, so thank you!

The moves up or down move the portfolio value in ways that takes my breath away..

I'm not really one for extravagance and bought a small home end of last year when CXO hit the mid 50s as we're downsizing for retirement. I didn't want to sell just yet as it was clear where we were heading but the opportunity to buy this special home came up and the location is lovely and peaceful. The original investment remains to one day provide dividends and a lifestyle we never dreamed possible.

Wishing all the long termers, new comers and traders the very best in life
