Thank you Rob and all for those really too kind words, I have always loved to make floats for longer than I can now remember , gifting some to others has always been a pleasure for me which is payment enough for such a small deed.
I guess by now there must be a few thousand knocking about out there somewhere ,I do however find that at my age I have slowed down a little but still like to make a few every week but I don't know how long for now. I know that there must be many in the forum who I have sent a few in the past but I just do not remember who most are now
Anyway I would like to use this opportunity here to thank you all for your kindness shown to me over many years. your comments have meant so much to me, and even more than you would know in my recent illness so to all my friends here a BIG thankyou
Finally good luck Martin with the grayling floats when you try them out soon , hopefully they will sink for all the right reasons
