Lee,
Thank can be a bit slow. I would also think about giving Chris at Lathkill a ring. Go onto their website:
www.lathkill.com, list want you want and give him a ring. He will do a deal for you I am sure. Mention me and he may knock a bit more.

I haven't seen the Lathkill website before. Do they carry good stock levels generally?

Yes and Chris is improving it all the time.
Lathkill has been around for sometime and has had a couple of owners. It went to pots about 2 years ago and Chris Eastwood bought it and is running it from his home (Specially built shed).
I have found the service really good, the prices competitive and he has a good supply of Scorpion hooks among others.
Situated in Halifax.
