Am gutted that I won’t be able to attend the A4U Pub Meet London later today. I’ve attended pretty all of these meets over the last couple of years but for reasons I won’t bore you with I can’t make this one. If anybody reading this has any doubts about whether they should attend or not then push them aside and get going!!

It retails for £24.99 and off the top of my head the commission is about £7 per sale. So not bad really at around 28% per sale.
