Hello Jacko Full Bottle
I was looking at the Fortescue tender schedule before
And thinking about new year and the half year .

...and yes ... the simple answer to your question does, as expected , involve kilts, pigs, roses and Frank Sinatra.
IE:

1) Do you think we should have bagpipes on the forum for New Year’s Eve?
A full on Hogmanay may be especially appropriate given we are heading towards Chinese Year of the Pig ?


2).....Which is kind of exciting because ..
”According to chinese astrology, 2019 is a great year to make money, and a good year to invest!
2019 is going to be full of joy, a year of friendship and love for all the zodiac signs; an auspicious year because the Pig attracts success in all the spheres of life.”

And if that doesn’t prove ( alas I can not escape my confirmation bias) Renaissance and Cerberus and all those other global spiders (hedge funds) tweaking the web of power will change the channel from bear to something else.....then what will ?
I mean how is it even possible to think about ripping global economic structure out from under our feet in a pig year?

Anyway Kilts and Pigs sounds good to me and here’s the link if anyone wants to read up on it https://www.thechinesezodiac.org/astrology/chinese-horoscope-2019-year-of-the-earth-pig/


And yes the half year results announcement WILL be in the Year of the Pig!
(Has to be good right?)
That is after February 5, 2019.

3) Morningstar has narrowed the date down to ‘Confession Day’ on the Valentine’s Day/week/fortnight traditions calendar;


From NWH CommSec Page:

PS
4) ‘Kick Day’?
Clearly that is “NWH I get a kick out of you day “





....And yes according to Wikipedia we are still full on into the 12 days of Christmas otherwise known as
‘The Daft Days”
