Gary Madore 0 Report post Posted March 26, 2005 No worries here.... As mine are coming from Canuckistan, they may be held up at the border for ages anyway.... They gotta be checked for Mad Marabou Disease and to make sure there was no softwood lumber used to make 'em. I'm just glad that mine won't (or may not be) the last to arrive.... heh heh Cheers!

Alex C. 0 Report post Posted March 30, 2005 QUOTE One more to go and then I'm done for a while...... tongue.gif Yeah right, it's an addiction. Nothing like opening up that envelope to see all the new flys you've got. I told myseldf yesterday no more swaps for a month or so since I'm involved in 5 as we speak, but I know if the right one pops up it'll be 6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
