Thanks for the laugh this morning Bungendore, I think your getting it. Funny you should mention New Zealand, lovely place to visit but not somewhere I would like to live.Their green lip mussels are to die for and yes the fishing is good. I do however have a house in the Philippines and if my investment in PLS ( got in at 7 cents) reaches the kind of valuations many long term holders expect, I may grant your wish, I am "alwayshopeful".

We should be discussing the stock (VANGO) as per posting rules, however since you asked about Government/politics I can digress just this once, Governments (ours) and in particular the USA own a printing press, companies such as yours rely on raising capital from financial markets and mum and dad investors, or in other words OPM (other peoples money) get the drift . Company directors are charged with responsibly using those funds to generate a return and increase the value of that investment. On a serious note can you tell me if you read Vango's annual reports?

Have to go now as I have promised my kids I would take them to BCF (Boating Fishing & Camping) this afternoon, going fishing next weekend.

It's been fun, bye for now penrice.
