Updated Adver Update - hope restored a bit!...

[magic8ball]

I think I've been riding the worlds longest, highest and fastest roller coaster all day. And I hate roller coasters. My god, how many more twists and turns can this take.....

Talk about going through the fucking wringer.....

Don't underestimate this rollercoaster. I've been riding it for a good 6 months.

Okay, so presumably, Fitton will sign on the dotted line when he returns from this holiday.

Does anybody think Diamandis will have a change of heart when he sees his driveway?  

I really hope it finally goes through, is anyone worried that when fitton comes back they will tell him to get lost as they would have got themselves more time.

Hate to be negative, but this is just another deadline in a list of seemingly never ending deadlines. I've got everything crossed, but i'm not exactly excited at the prospect of waiting all day Monday for a snippet of news.....

Does anybody have Bangkoks mobile number? Seems he's wimped out. Just because he lost the arm wrestling and paper, stone, scissors or tank contest. Anyway he should know the news, in case he has a nightmare.

If the contracts are OK can't Jeremy or another consortium member sign? Don't leave any escape route for a cornered rat.

My pleasure.

I must admit, this is the first time I've allowed myself to even hope today.

That's what i was thinking, surely a member of his consortium could sign the deal, i wouldn't like to wait a week to sign it and then come back and Diamandis says get lost, i'd rather it be signed now.

Yes i'm sure one of Fitton's reps could sign it. I think Fitton is smart enough to know it can get done on Monday even if he is away. He wouldn't be stupid enough to leave it sat there for a week with this lot surely?

[figgis]

spot on cant they fax it thru for him to sign or can any member of his consortium do it.

[axs]

surely Fitton can just postpone his holiday for a day if it a case of signing on Monday morning. part of me thinks he booked the holiday as a built-in deadline to make sure ssw knew when he had to have everything sorted out by.

A multi-million pound deal going to shit because you're going on holiday? i don't think so.

Yes fax and email as well.

Fuck knows whats going on I'll continue to fear the worst though..

As per the report I think it will be Monday a.m., especially as WUP's have to be lodged by 11.30 each working day IIRC. Point being that to stop HMRC (or any other) they would presumably want to know that the deal is completed, not just "will be completed next Monday" ... it says here!
