Im probably wrong though.
greenlands Posted January 13, 2013 Report Posted January 13, 2013 Silver is up and down like a yoyo,I think at the mo.it's just over 60p/gram.A lot lower that of previous.Saying that I could be wrong and don't mind admitting it.
Guest bigda Posted January 13, 2013 Report Posted January 13, 2013 can they not reclaim it as stolen property
Rooster J. Cogburn Posted January 13, 2013 Report Posted January 13, 2013 Thats very interesting I know one of the Anderson Bros daughters,in fact shes married to one of our clubmates. She has a portrait of the Rennes winner in the house.
