Dave at basic is basically retiring, hes slowly clearing his yard, he said he will do meths etc if he has vehicles going CLOSE by, he said I would still be ok for a while and he usually delivers mine himself anyway.

BUT after 3 failed deliveries and then repeated calls over 3 days from me where they kept saying he wasn't there, and he never rang me back even after 3 calls asking, so I left a last message saying, If Dave had got any decency to call me back by the end of the day, never heard from him, so he is now on my 'turned out to be a feckin wanker' list!

Where else could we get meth from?

ive got enough to get me through to the bbb.

who was that chap last year with the chems?

To the guys that have offered me oil, it's a very kind gesture, however most of you are just a little to far to make it worth while.

No doubt you would, I've done it myself in the past.

It's funny that in this game it's feast or famine, in the past I've been looking at 1000 to 1200L, giving collections away, turning down new collections and giving oil away.
If only I had that much now.

I got a phone call today from a place I used to collect from,
although they changed hands and had stopped doing hot food that didn't last long, they want me to go and clear their backlog,
said they had quite a stockpile, 6 months worth  ;D

So things are looking up, even the wife is sounding a little positive.

Good news, that should keep you in the game for a while longer.

If you fancy a trip down this way at any point, I can send you home with as much oil as that Disco will carry as well as filling it up with bio for you. There is a bit of a bonanza oil wise down here for sure.

Tash collected 120litres on Wednesday and 240litres today
I collected 100 litres today and have about 300 to collect tomorrow.  I am getting close to running out of stockpiling capacity, even with the heating and Lister running on it

Jules, the answer is obvious ... start a district heating scheme.
