Hi again Mark,

These are your flies, about 120 in total. Hope they catch you some fish, and the odd big 'un!

Includes a couple of #32's...

Best,
Andy

32...!!!

I'll fish out the old pocket easyknot foldaway assisting lenses then....do I need to fish with a special mask on in case I inhale one by mistake...??

oh yes!
That said, if you inhale, you'll just feel highly sprirtual for a few moments before they pass through your bronchial membrane and exit via the trachea... sounds worse than it is...

As I was the mule who carried these from Andy to Mark, I was priveleged to a peek at the set which I did not win as I was asleep :p .
Yes folks, they are indeed excellent, every one.

Andy you have come a very long way in an extremely short time,
keep up the good work.

My old saying re:- dubbings and dyeing hackle -
it's all about light
takes on a new meaning in this context.

Thanks again, mate and to all who played the game.
Good work Andy,

Roy

Found this hidden away in the SL archive, my first flies posted around March of last year.

Yes, making good progress.... but not without the ongoing help and support of this board and your own very generous time, help with materials, 121 tying sessions and tireless support.

Priceless

Thanks again,
Andy

Andy,
That's no biggie, a few minutes well spent on
education
( latin: ex - duco ) is to bring out or develop what is in a person.
You had it in you all the time, all I did was give you a wee nudge when you were on the edge of the precipice.

Two years' tying and you did your first show. AWESOME

Thing is, mate, you earned it.
That box of flies proves that.

Roy
