I bought BITS on 7/7/05 out of SEG profits and made a 40% profit over a very short time. If I was holding a little longer I would have made 500% profit :-(
From my recollection your SEG holding did rather well with you getting out of SEG and into BITS at about 150p too soon; but still with a fantastic appreciation. I realise you still have a number of SEG interests however your 3% plus of BITS has also done pretty well for you too!
Does your "c'est la vie" mean you have only made £1.9 million instead of £2.2 million? - LOL
