A mate of mine,yes I have one or two.
Said to me that I have shortened his searching of contacts by three years. And He is right. I have learnt that local contact knowledge is very thickle. When you have a good contact for either superior service or reliable repairs/work and great priced people, or even barter contacts, these usually stay with you unless yiu move too far away. And finding new ones is hard.
So i suggest we make a list of who we recommend for doing what. Not just for our Patrols.
