Surely it would be PC to place a small "negotiations continue"...

Surely it would be PC to place a small "negotiations continue" ann in today with a reference to advice forthcoming next week.

Here's my attempt at the ann:

"In relation to the conditional bid placed by the Shell Joint Venture on Monday, the directors advise that they are still considering all matters (in conjunction with the the advisory panel) and again reaffirm their recommendation to shareholders to do nothing until they report next week."


I hold and I wait..and I am waiting for a better offer, thank you.

Presently Shell are right royal contenders for the annual Terry Tightar$e Award!
