A swarm of Zulu's are flying your way. :lol:

My herl was just to old and brittle to use so I had to

substitute. The result turned out nice. :blink:

Hope they will suffice as I don't have the tying

experience that many of the others do. :dunno:

Our due date is still April 30th. Several sets of flies have arrived, but work has had me swamped for the past week. I'll try to catch up early next week, and scan the new arrivals as well so everyone can see them. I will put all the flies up on a webpage as well. This weekend I've got to finish up flies for swaps...(two from another site)...

Yesterday I received the Zulus I sent in for this swap, back. His family is returning those that included the self-addressed/stamped envelope.

 

This was the last swap Mark ran before he passed away and he was not able to get them sorted and returned to the swappers. If we all get our flys back; is there any interest in completeing the swap with another SM? Or is would this be in bad taste? I will do it if not.

I doubt I will get mine back as I hand delivered mine to Mark and he was going to do the same at the end of the swap.Not even sure I toe tag them.

If i get mine back or not I am not worried about it either way, if everybody gets theirs back and wants to finish it in his honor that would be great with me also, whatever this group wants to do is fine with me,

everybody have a nice day,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,B,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
