Had a chat with a big fella, ex policeman who I believe has fished for the national team, another very nice guy (Just tried to chop his finger of filleting a fuish).
One of the staff came running over when he saw me opening my box "I love a peep at someone elses flies" I felt very proud when he said I had a good looking selection for Scottish lochs, I had to admit that they were shop bought and not tied by myself and mostly chosen with the help of this forum (and a bit of experience). The fact that he could even be arsed to come over gave me the impression that he loved his fishing. The devil in me thinks he may have been after a giggle though
3 jobs going as well with reasonable wages for retail, I bet they get some high calibre applicants.

Beer was mentioned actually - He asked were I got my gear from, I usually top up at GAC and my closest shop is Frasers (Great shop IMO) but last purchase was on-line from your good self. We swapped the obvious testimonials to your business, I mentioned NESA and fireman and Pete made a slight mention of Beer.
