Firstly,
Yes they were mine Matt - will send you a SAE in the post. I was nipping over to Dyce today so lashed them into a bag and threw them at your letterbox - a sort of drive by flyswap, sorry for flouting the 'rules' - tyrant!

No Baz, if they look like your (supposedly posted) blue junk then shoot me. :z7 :z4

Hi Baz,

I've got eight sets so far. But the deadline is the 15th of April so they've got a few days left to get their flies tied and in the post.

Cheers

All,

I've got eight sets so far and Hamish has his in the post. I owe Clark and apology because I forgot to reply to his PM and he didn't think he was in the swap. I'll make up the tenth set with some silver stoats. Seeing as it was my fault I'll be sending Clark ten to make up for my mistake.

I'll get them in the post as soon as hamish's flies arrive.

Cheers

Matt

All

I now have all the flies.  I'll take a quick snap tonight and post that and they will be in the post tomorrow (Baz they might get to your house before you do :z4!).  All of the flies look great.

Thanks for your efforts.  I'll run another swap later in the year.  But with even more notice to the deadline.  And potentially a theme.

Cheers

Matt
