Interim Results
For the sixmonth period ended 30 June 2008
Chairman's Statement
I am pleased to report the results for the six months ended 30 June 2008.
During the period, the loss on the profit and loss account was �105,000,
compared to �86,000 for the 12 months ended 31 December 2007. The loss is
principally attributable to a premium of �40,000 on redemption of convertible
loan stock and the write down of investments by �26,442.
The company has been seeking to make an acquisition or to attract additional
investment and the directors are optimistic that they will be able to achieve
one or the other before the year end.

Notes to the Interim Financial Statements for the six months ended 30 June 2008
1. Basis of preparation
The interim results are unaudited and do not constitute statutory accounts for
the purpose of s240 of the Companies Act 1985 (s434 of the Companies Act 2006).
They have been prepared under applicable International Financial Reporting
Standards adopted by the European Union (`IFRS').
The accounting policies applied in preparing the interim financial statements
are consistent with those set out in the statutory accounts for the year ended
31 December 2007. The figures for the year ended 31 December 2007 have been
extracted from the statutory accounts filed with the registrar of companies on
which the auditors gave an unqualified report.
The financial information for the six months to 30 June 2008 and the six months
to 30 June 2007 has not been audited. As permitted, the Company has chosen not
to adopt IAS 34 `Interim Financial Statements' in preparing the interim
financial information.

The basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the loss attributable to
equity shareholders by the weighted average number of shares in issue. There
are no potential ordinary shares which are dilutive and therefore diluted loss
per share equals basic loss per share.
The weighted average number of ordinary shares during the period was:
