Sorry I hadnt checked this thread in awhile.
Who this is? Roy has come by with his brother and shown an interest. Im hoping they are going to join our staff as they have been good to me in the past. I havent seen them in a few weeks though and am getting worried they might have found another home before I could find a spot for them. PM me when you see this. Thanks Ben
