takeover. not such a bad thing, page-10

Hey Bigsky,

Yes, I did get a touch carried away with my comment that I'd never invest in one of Norm's companies again. You're right - he's not a crook. Also, he hasn't pulled a Wayne McCrae on us, as far as enriching himself with deep in the money options.

If I was able to edit my comment, I think I'd change it to being cautious of him, but wouldn't black-ball him out of hand.

BSG has also made me a good whack of money (although I've had to keep the faith for many years) and I'm sure that I sound like an ingrate in some of my comments.

It's just that, when this deal was announced, it felt a bit like coitus interruptus. Just before our moment of crowning glory, we pulled out.

My initial posts on the subject focussed on CDE, because I was so confident BSG was a world-beater. My attention has now turned from them, to looking critically at BSG. That's why I'm not so indignant about the deal anymore.

[Eighty bagger, hey? You lucky - and patient - dog, you!]
