Wildebeests

[Dave Martin]

The wildebeest are getting fatter and fatter in this part of East Anglia, i put my adverts in the local papers today but have been doing at least two loads a day for the last couple of weeks and the weather as been in the mid twentys for the last few days, roll on the cold weather

 

It went mad here for about 3 weeks people would have one load then phone a couple of days later to order another. We were delivering on Sunday to stay on top of it and then the sun came and the phone stopped.

Its the time of year when we all want to start shifting stock as we have sat on it long enough. Customers are ringing around for the best possible logs at the lowest possible price and in some cases they will get it from newbies and side liners. come December you could offer wet chipboard you ripped out your kitchen in and that would be acceptable. I sell 80 % of my logs during Dec and Jan. About 15% goes to regular customers in Aug Sept. All widerbeests need to chill and relax at this time of year.

Ill have to listen too and learn from the experienced wilderbeests and keep my cool by wallowing in the swamp a bit more..
