A bird in the hand is worth 2 in the bush. A lot of hassle saved whelan and as FP points out no transactions costs. Also saving on 3-4 weeks feeding.

he's gone, kids get 100 euro each now, can do with it what they want, 100 euro for me;) and the rest goes into their credit union accounts

just do it

back on topic :: had a fellow ring me yesterday inquiring what stores I had and when was i selling,

didn't deal with him last year as he was well shy of market value

seeing him hungry for stock so early in the year is a positive pointer for back end, IMO

this fellow is in the know & doesn't make too many mistakes

If their is a flesh cover 390
If a lot of hol in them you haven't got flesh cover with 9kgs
be careful the factories penalise very hard if you. Haven't flesh
