             Interim results for the six months ended 30 June 2005             

Chairman's statement

In the six months ended 30 June 2005 the Company incurred a loss before and
after taxation of �74,000 (2004: �229,000).

Because of the lack of cash in the Company, creditors have increased but
continue to be supportive.

The directors are continuing to keep overheads to a minimum, the expenses being
those necessary to maintain the Company's listing on AIM.

The board continues to seek an acquisition for the Company.

Owing to a technicality, the Company no longer has any authority to issue any
of its share capital and will therefore be convening an extraordinary general
meeting for this purpose.
