To start a new Vice I need to buy a Vice

Did you raid old women's boxes for the ginger minge nymph?!  :shock:

I would have thought the fly would have been more of a "grey hen & rusty"

Thanks chaps "buy it now"...done  

Good for you you will never regret it! Fly tying will help make you a more successful fly fisherman.

Congrats on stopping smoking, that is something else you will never regret. I did the same  thing 30 years ago. As an added incentive remember that for the cost of 20 fags  a day you can have a months fishing, in New Zealand - all inclusive .................... :shock:

Paul - A beautifully constructed post on a topic that you seem to be very knowledgeable on, speaking from personal experience :?

Yeah I look forward to hours in from of the vice, especially for the river flies which I find harder to get in shops and overdresed when you do.

As for the smoking, I hope you wont see me puffing away at Drummond next year ....i'm on and off the damn things like a switch, "weak" the missus says!. Still determined to do it for the family, me and the money.....Hmm New Zealand you say
