darren ,i paired up late last season and the same this,i found it made no difference to my ybs on the dark,some will say different but its just what i found,as you know i topped the fed with a second round yb,so how late would have have been...but as we keep hearing each to their own and thats my opinion but i must say if i could i would pair maybe a bit eariler,but what with vacciantions and blackpool ect its suits me ...hope this helps
