If you would be willing to suggest some materials for me to share with them I can make some polite enquiries as a shareholder as to whether this is being considered (as are thousands of others). As a shareholder I am entitled I believe to ask questions at the AGM and if this has been purchased using money from Brewdog then it's a pertinent question. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=20208&page=3#post-346535 Tue, 16 Feb 2021 19:54:15 +0000 I were right about that saddle 346535@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Far better to allow the trees to grow back themselves if the seed load allows.
