Default Surplus flies - free to a good home.

I'm just about to start fly tying so hopefully I'll be rolling my own fairly soon. I made the beginners mistake, when I started fishing, of buying way too many flies so I now have have a good many surplus flies - mostly river dries - shop bought (reasonable but not great quality). Since these are never likely to see the water with me does anyone who is starting out river fishing want to take them off my hands?
Flies are mostly small klinks (of which I seem to have an endless amount for some reason), para adams, beadhead wooly buggers and various sedges

Hi Steve,
I've just joined Salisbury Angling club and am going onto the rivers soon for the first time, if still available would love them.
Cheers.

pm your address and I'll send them off Conker.

I'll divide them in four because there a high number of identical flies, next pm gets the last quarter.

If I'm not to late, can we have some for the C f R charity collection, so that they can either be used or auctioned off for them ?

Arkle
I'd love to support a charity but I'd be reluctant to send these in for this purpose they're internet bought, far eastern tied, "basic" quality flies, not fulling mill or equivalent.
