Apollo, to steal a phrase from Pauline Hanson, "please explain". This seems to me to be an extaordinary negative and broad-sweeping statement. I have never been in a syndicate and definitley do not know anyone who runs a syndicate, however, to me it seems like an opportunity for a bit of relatively cheap fun. In percentage terms, not many people are actually going to make money out of dogs, whether it be owning their own dog outright or being part of a syndicate, it is just a bit of fun for most. In this case, if my reading of the preceeding posts is correct, then Dawn has made her run too late on this one but I will leave it to Rob (whoever he is or maybe it is a she) to advise her.
