I suppose it's about time I paid for some of these flies.

sorry lads, I've had a look and I can't find anything that tells me how to prove I've paid/donated the 160 and not just duped roy?

cheers.

roy,

you're a diamond for doing this, mate. onya.

Hi Mitch,

When I called up I got a reference number from them, as they said getting a receipt may take a few weeks, it has been that busy. I think most people would be fairly honest for a good cause.

I decided to do it over the phone as I didn't want to be on any contact list. I've won enough trips and mobile phones from a fella named raj.

so $160 added to my cc bill and I'm feeling pretty good about it. apparently the receipt will take a while but he ensured me I'd have it for tax time. (I've never done my tax on time, so no worries there, mate)

have fun shadow boxing my 3doz flies and make sure you tag them this time, roy.

I was happy to read there is still an element of trust amongst fly fishers, even though many people here are familiar to me.

well done, everyone.
