    During the past four years or so,both have laid very solid foundations for truly great businesses .
    I expect both to build on those foundations.
    Both have good organic growth,and have made astute acquisitions.
    Both have directors who have large shareholdings.
    I expect the share price of both to double within four or five years,and the divies to keep on increasing in the meantime.

    Page 3 of the initial offer doc says "your application will be scaled on aproportionate basis with regard to the size of your application", however page 12 says "on a proportionate basis by reference to the size of existing shareholdings and noteholdings held at the time of allotments". Todays announcement conforms with the latter, however I thought it was based off the former?

    Is it just me or are these different meanings:
    1) Scaling based on application amount = two different holders whom apply for 15k each both get the same amount after scaling
    2) Scaling based on existing holding amount = two different holders whom apply for 15k each get proportional amounts according to their holdings

    Also this seems a bit unfair for the smaller holders, on top of already lacking funds to get to the 15k mark.

    Haha! I got something like 15% of the max amount.
    I'm looking forward to getting my refund, so I can put the cash to work.
