When Ab Is Eventually Floated On The Stock Exchange Will Regulars Have An Opportunity To...

[sandyRoe]

...buy shares at an advantageous price?

[seekeerz]

Gosh I hope so, sandy, then well all be zillionaires !

[jeffa]

Obviously, and think of the scrip issues.

[sandyRoe]

When I get them I'll sell my shares and use the profit to buy a modest villa in the south of France.

a hedge fund big enough to pay the Mods' bar bills will be required

[Buenchico]

Not so much a 'hedge' fund, Jno. More of a 'forest' fund if it's to be big enough ;-)

[jno]

perhaps shares will be distributed according to the number of Best Answers, in which case you chaps will be seeing me with a begging bowl.

[Buenchico]

>>>perhaps shares will be distributed according to the number of Best Answers

I like that idea, Jno ;-)
(236 should still get you a good share!)

[wolf63]

Can we add our badges into the mix? I could steal my brothers badges and my cat Frankie has some too.

[seekeerz]

Compared to you two I'll be the one with the begging bowl !

[Buenchico]

>>>Can we add our badges into the mix?

Only if AB's techie can get the system working, Wolf! (Sandy and I have both got 1102 'Best Answers' but neither of us have got our '1000 Club' badge yet. Sandy's probably not bothered but, since I'm a poor saddo, I am!)

Seekerz:
Your most-welcome contributions here simply go to prove that there are really far more important things than 'Best Answers' anyway!

[seekeerz]

Oh you smooth talker, and how is my favourite niece ? And all her siblings ?

[Buenchico]

The kittens are all well, all lively and all equally destructive, thank you, Seekerz. Their mum hasn't read the textbooks because she's still feeding them a full month after she should have stopped!

"Only if AB's techie can get the system working"

This would be a definition of "techie" that is known only to Ed, I take it?

[wolf63]

Chris - is she feeding them because she wants to or are the babies helping themselves? Are you any more certain about gender? The problem with sexing cats used to confuse me, as a dog owner it seemed simple - if it's got a Willy it's a boy , no Willy then it's a girl. (Assuming the gonads were missing). I can only assume that Frankie has the relevant bits, which will be how he can per up a wall.

[Buenchico]

>>>This would be a definition of "techie" that is known only to Ed

Yes. It means the guy with a copy of 'Teach Yourself Computing' in one hand and a hammer in the other ;-)

[wolf63]

Jeff's - a techie is anyone who knows more than ED. Not sure if that narrows the field down though.

[jeffa]

Or, put another way, a Post-It note which simply says "Feed the monkey"

[jeffa]

Wolf, I think that may have been the very thrust of my pithy diatribe...

[Buenchico]

>>>is she feeding them because she wants to or are the babies helping themselves?

A mixture. It's largely the kittens sneaking a free meal but, for example, she jumped onto my knee last night and called all her kittens to her for a feed. (I had to hold them all on because fitting 5 cats onto my knee is getting rather difficult!)

>>>Are you any more certain about gender?

Tablo has got two 'holes' close together. The other three have got them far apart, with testicles growing in between. So I'm reasonably confident about their genders ;-)

[wolf63]

The good thing about cats is they seem very keen on sticking their added in their human' s face. :-(

Kittens look so small and fragile .... but they are still evil.
