      Not really. I bought them to hold for at least 15 years.

      £7.01 per share. That's right. I bought a largish number of shares, so made a tidy profit. Not enough to retire on, but a nice little boost to the retirement fund.

          Reckon I've got at least five more years yet. So don't get your hopes up.

            Would never want to retire. But then I don't really consider myself to be working.

                My ARM shares were "free" - had them since Acorn closed down and did a share swap.

                  And the last bit of silver gets sold off.

                  For dear old Freako, this relates to the sale of ARM Holdings to the Japanese.

                    BMW also own the Triumph car brand.

                    A few years ago they touted around a new design for a brand new Spitfire...There's irony for you
