It is what I seem to recall being said. I might be totally out of order.
You usually are.
Feel free to let me know. Do you know?

To get a truck load indicates this was planned as part of normal stores and the truck must have gone to collect direct from the manufacturer. From recollection, these boats had just come off patrolling for people on boats with children so perhaps it is plausible that they had a genuine need to re-supply baby product. Suspicious minds might think they were plundering to exploit the market in China.
Suspicious minds might think that Wally is an interloper in disguise. :mrgreen:

It is remarkable at PA, I am considered an 'interloper' yet I have been a Member (now prodigal) here before all of you so far as I can tell.

Yes. You were not there unless you had some other name at the time.

A man has been left hospitalised after a violent brawl over baby formula in a Sydney supermarket.
Police were reportedly called to Woolworths Eastwood after reports of two men fighting in the aisles.

It is believed the two males were arguing over who had the baby formula first before it turned violent.

The 65-year-old and 59-year-old men allegedly threw punches before the older man used an item from the supermarket shelves to hit the other man over the head. Police allege that the two men were known to each other. The older man was taken to Ryde police station where he was charged.

There has been a black market in China for safe baby formula since 2008 when melamine contamination killed six babies and forced parents to look offshore for safer supplies.

Wild brawl for baby formula at Hurstville shopping centre.

A fight has broken out at a Hurstville shopping centre over baby formula.
Video here ... https://www.9news.com.au/videos/wild-br ... pe79shkhuc

The solution?

Sell out to the Chinese! :roll:
Bellamy's shares have surged by more than 50 per cent after the infant formula maker announced it had entered into a $1.5 billion takeover scheme with the China Mengniu Dairy Company.

The ASX-listed infant formula maker today urged shareholders to back the scheme - worth $13.25 cash per share - which represents a 59 per cent premium to last week's closing price of $8.32.

>snip<

"Bellamy's is a leading Australian brand with a proud Tasmanian heritage and track record of supplying high quality organic products to Australian mums and dads," Mr Lu Minfang said.

More Sinophobia, hey, Black Orchid. So, how is the Chinese company's actions related to what occurred at the shopping centre?

Not at all, of course but it gives you a chance to attack investors who have done nothing wrong. :roll:

How do you know they have done nothing wrong, Brian? Not that I said anything of the sort. Giving them a character reference sight unseen or do you know them personally?

Well, you're the one who suggesting that the "sell out" was caused by the "brawl" at Hurstville, no one else, Black Orchid. :roll:
