It is only fair after all.
NR was undergoing a bank run and would have collapsed completely leaving your shares worthless, it's only survived because HMG stepped in. At best they might have secured a buyer at pennies per share if anyone had been prepared to take the risk.Comment

It was undergoing a run due to HMG leaking rumours to the BBC. Break-up value would have been considerable, even if no HMG funding was forthcoming. The fact that 15 Billion of debt has been paid off in 9 months says it all. I await the Judicial Review in January with great interest !!Comment

It's full of holes: http://www.aboutourrock.com/caves.htm I like the list of caves at the end of that page. The cave names are great. I'm particularly interested in "TINA'S FISSURE".Comment
