Default Stan Headley.. a question..

I was thumbing through a recent T&S and was looking at the dressing for one of your incarnations of a Peter Ross Dabbler. You specify crimson fur for the dressing. Just wondering why the slightly blue tinge of crimson over the pink of red or the yellow of scarlet? Idle curiosity really, nothing more.

Oh b@llocks, did I say 'crimson'. I meant scarlet. I must be loosing the few remnants of grey matter I have left. Thanks for pointing that out Midlander.
