 Not found out if it's a company or individual yet, or whether it's cash or money off new oil.  Just going with what the chef's told me.

He's moving on soon and says he'll give me a shout if the new place needs their oil away. Heres hoping.

 Still, I've enough to see me through a wee while yet, it'll give me the kick up the backside to get looking for new sources.

anything can become a currency and a value, the way of the world in which we reside...

can be annoying on first touch, but look in the right place and all that can change, if only for an instant...

no-one carries the right to have, but can partake sometimes, value those times as the journey rides some sharp bends...

and above all fricken smile  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

 Text the chef tonight, it's a company thats took it over, paying £6 a cubie, and have left barrels to be filled.

 I'm thinking of sending someone in and offering £7 a cubie with a container and card removal service thrown in on top.

crikey they want the old oil bad, i picked up nothing last week, i have lost pubs and what i have the amounts fell, this winter will be the worst ever, as people dont go out much and money grows everso much tighter in ones pocket...

im still looking into paying for 1000 ltrs ibc a time off the bay of E, if things hit rock bottom.

its pickup tonight see if theres nothing again...

Going to have to get my arse in gear soon, I've got about 400lt of WVO and 100lt of palm, thing is the backs been playing up something chronic the last few months ended up in A&E once with the pain :(

Its taken me ALL my effort to get my new processor ready for fitting the 2x2 stage eductors, never mind about insulating and plumbing it all together.

Sorry to hear about the back.  A lot of lifting heavy things seems to be involved as a matter of course doing this fuel thing.  I sometimes wonder what I'd do if I put my back out (especially since I did recently doing some work on the extension - but fortunately that got better on its own).

Cheers Tony, I broke my back ( 2 vertebrae) in 1995 and had to have them fused but I've been left with a pinched spinal cord , BUT my consultant wont operate as he says he could do more harm than good..

Wish my back was my ONLY "issue" lol
