re: Ann: Exploration permit status granted of... Well the quarterly report due out today will be interesting. See how much cash inflows from the sale of oil, production of oil, maybe update on new UK well. All would be nice, and if positive could bode well for the future.

Dapper, you would hope management would have the full knowledge of how things are done in the UK. Could be possible that they were aware of all of the processes necessary to drill another hole, and how long those might take. Government departments could be notorious for taking their time in any country. Hopefully that is the main hold-up, and hopefully they aren't as bad as what Italy's departments have been!
