Guys, its no issue, I am giving them away with pleasure, at least I know they'll actually see real water other than the kicthen sink filled with municipal water and you know what, thought about it, lets just forget about the postage, it won't be that much so really, don't worry about it. WK will get yours off ASAP and H-P I actually did some work on both the poppers today, just waiting for the polyester to dry so they can be smoothed out, then its eyes and paint, now is there any specific colour you'd like them to be, if so, see if you can send me a pic of what you have in mind.
When I die, will somebody please dress up as the Grim Reaper and attend, don't need to do or say anything, just stand there!

LGF I have no real preference but perhaps one with a red head white body? That colour scheme has always served me well

LGF, where do you stay in Pta? If you live near me I will collect the lures from you and give it to the guys at the social tomorrow? Then you don't have to send via post.

Zoiks you know sometimes I am not very smart and then other times like this I'm REALLY stupid! I stay in hatfield during the week I can easily pick them up and give them to Gareth at the next social. Unfortunately I am back in the land of square wheels Boksburg for the weekend so I can't have them at tomorrows social unless Viskop can bring them through

Sheesh you guys could have warned me about the price of these lures! The lady laughed at me when I told her the rapalas were marked incorrectly surely they can't be R90 each. I think I need a job

Viskop, Bud I stay in Montana but don't have issues to drive anywhere in the city or out, especially cause it gives me time to give the stiff upper lipped tea drinking thin moustache over-accented english gentlemen in their land rovers, "The EYE", you know the one that says, You've got my sympathy, shame, don't worry I'll tow you, you know that eye, so tell me where and when and I'll quickly drop Garreth's lures, Half-Pint unfortunately will just have to hang in there a wee bit longer, still need to finish his.
 
So PM me where you are and I can bring them to you quickly.

Sorry guys, I'm off to the hospital, my sister's daughter is very sick in icu so I can't make it tonight. If it suits you I will be able to pick it up on sunday and have it dropped at Gareth's office on monday. Our drivers pass through that area often so not a problem.

LGF, if I can collect on sunday please pm your number and I'll give you a shout so we can arrange a time.

Hey Half-Pint

I see you will be on holiday in the same area as me over December. I'll be in Port Alfred and fishing as much as I can. Also going down to Sundays River,my parents stay on the river,I have to make a throw there aswell.

Give me a shout closer to the time,we can hook up.

Gareth, you will have your lures today, gave them to the driver early this morning. I hope you watched Inside angling last night, Tommo was fishing a Tkei estuary and caught some beautiful fish.
 
Henk, thanks for meeting me half way yesterday!
