Thank you so much. Frantic googling will now ensue ! Cheers Ian

Hi having returned to using light weight swingers from using bobbins on chains for many years. The swing arms I have purchased have a 5mm male thread at each hinged end. I would like to carry on using my old illuminated bobbins (Osprey Kryptonites remember them?) As a result I am trying to find an adaptor that is 5mm thread female down to a 2BA male (3 of). Ironically Solar do one that goes 5mm male to 2BA female lol. Anyone know of anywhere that can supply these as putting isotopes in the supplied heads doesn`t appeal, have you seen the price of isotopes these days !!!! Cheers Ian

To answer both questions at the same time. @framey Yes purchased directly from them, I believe shipped direct ex factory. @elmoputney When I buy bulk spools of line I normally expect it to have 2 ends not 4. Funnily enough this happened once with Berkeley who instantly refunded me and despatched a replacement which I took to be great service. When I tried to bring attention to this latest problem I first went to the contact us section of the website and the way the page behaved when I hit send just felt as if nothing had happened so after 5 days without any response or acknowledgement I emailed direct from my email and again after a week still no response, Last attempts via phone with full mailbox constant response has soured my opinion with the company. Cheers Ian

Still unable to get through to NGT by phone or email. Trying to get a reason to go down that way and knock on the door. (Or maybe trading standards might concentrate their minds on communicating with people that have paid them for things). Cheers Ian

Interesting update Corus and NGT share a contact phone number which never gets answered as apparently "This persons mailbox is full" The annoying bit is I want to complain about a bulk spool of NGT line but they don`t answer emails either direct or through the website. Contact details for NGT would be great as they still seem to want publicity for their products through the usual promoters etc. Eventual owners "Sports Wholesale" don`t show contact details. Cheers Ian

I know a chap in Bedfordshire who is a member ! Quite a lot of game only waters and I seem to think he had to wait a while for full membership. Some stunning places and well worth a look. Cheers Ian

Funny as my Aqua bivvy broke an elastic soon after I bought it ! When I phoned them they said they would keep my details and get in touch when the relevant person got back from holiday! Well 2 years on and I have given up on that one and the bivvy still works fine. Elastic would have been nice but customer service on something so expensive would have been ideal! Cheers Ian

Waits patiently on the sidelines not expecting much from a company that has grown large ! Please forgive the cynicism but if they are aware of it they should have been all over it before we the great unwashed had even noticed, its their logo after all. Cheers Ian

My initial thought is cock up but if they aren't that bothered then I will boycott till I see them jumping up and down and demanding the heads of the people who doctored the picture. Till then I aint buying there stuff and I hope others feel the same way? Is there any momentum for a boycott campaign from those that use facefarce? Cheers Ian

Cyborx if you get a reply would you post it here please. I am fascinated to see what they say and if it`s not a fake I too will be boycotting their products. Cheers Ian

Fantastic bits of kit wouldn't be without it and can personally say the two biggest carp I have ever caught in the UK were because the pole got me into the exact spot with a little bit of free samples and rig with little or no disturbance ! Cheers Ian

I bought the shimano one and cant fault it ! Cheers Ian

Hee Hee couldn't resist !

Thanks Yonny I didn't know the CTX was an import ! Every day is a learning day lol. Cheers Ian

Vik R.e your fetish for shrink wrap I think with Free Spirit if you buy through someone like Johnson Ross you can have them made with whatever handles you like. I speak as someone who has a bit of a cork thing going on (but I am seeking help lol). Cheers Ian
