Can't make me mind up about the mix of colours on the first one Kev. I've no issue with the claret and olive (I have a couple of patterns with that mix), just not sure about the Jay on top of it all. One thing I am sure of is, it's a really super tie. Lovely 'form' to it

Second one? Lay off the grog.
