I sent you one my Little Nest of Vipers but it was someone else - I am sure, or someone asking me for a drag casing or something such.


Heh heh, one has also asked for some reel seat extensions


And you can all sodd off until I have played with them meself


I am also expecting some crazy anodised Abel-esque bad boys.....stand in line, mind you as 'tis about time the "Cobbler made himself a pair of shoes first"..............yeah right, as if I would do that with Mrs SKB peering over my shoulder
