I'm hoping to get some advice / give a warning about an issue I've faced recently with a fish supplier; apologies if this is the wrong forum, and for the length of the post.

Thank you!

Re: First post

Thanks everyone for your help, and I'm sorry about the confusion! I've updated my locations, and hopefully this makes things more clear :-) Sorry if this is a silly question, but would it be okay if I messaged MatsP to ask advice?
