And now the pupil becomes the master. ...
Alan, just because you have more of my flies in your box than I have of yours, doesn't mean I know what I'm doing.
Just means your hands are quicker than the eye can see  :D

Brian, if you 'phone Nigel at Lakeland and tell him what you are looking for, you'll get top notch advice.
His own "brand" capes are EXCELLENT value for money.


I'd be more than happy to send you some feathers from a Metz, Whiting and Lakeland to compare.


All the best,
Tony

Genetic saddles are going up in the states as well, hair dressers using them. 

:shock: Don't know if you're just joking Darwin, if you're not, why are hairdressers using them ?

Black Don,  seems the new fad over here is to add a few dyed long saddle feathers into women's hair as decoration.

I hope this fad is short lived, as I am a bit tight fisted when it comes to paying good money for feathers... :worried

The ? sign is ALT - 0163.

Hold down the ALT key and use the numbers on the NUM pad not the ones across the top of the keyboard.
Don't worry, be happy.

?  Cheers Sandy.  Guess I could have opened up the character map... 

Brian, they are a small shop, 2 people doing internet only I think.   I got a few orders from him, nice guy.  did some custom dye work for me also.  (I am not connected, just an opinion. )  Larger packages to the states now take 4 to 6 weeks  :x
