just wondered what the sums are on doing that? obviously you’re well placed in surrey close to dover/tunnel so can pay somebody a day’s pay to do it but does it add up to a decent amount? 
Unfortuneately at this moment in time it is not worth going over.
For it to be viable there needs to be at least .20ppl difference in price between U.K & Belgium, currently there is only a .15ppl difference.
I shall keeping a close eye on the prices tho

He asked me how I thought it should be when he came up with the £74,980 and when I said £70,000 he went through what I thought was a well rehearsed routine of chocking on his coffee

Err…£62000■■..ish
PS do you know Gary at GSA International?
I’d go a little higher, say £64,500.

Higher? If it’s lower sounds like you have a cracking deal.
