racedo is right in the fact that you never stop being nervous until the cash is in the bank, but the contracts will have been signed and that should be enough to calm the nerves.
I did hear from someone that a certain Mr. Dalrymple has been on an extended tour of the city with cap in hand, so that might be where this story has come from. That's not saying that there any problems, you see alot of company bosses running around looking harrassed!
1+1 should = 2, but add in a journo that may have a grudge for some reason and I think I can see where this has all come from.
Hopefully it hasn't hurt anything too much.
