you are better off getting one of these col. as they fit nicely onto your down tube. If you buy any normal case you then have to figure out how to attach it to the buggy.

I am sure i asked for the pouch to be horizontal to allow my GPS to sit the right way, however it has come as the stock fitting ie vertically, so now i will view my GPS on it's side!!! lol

all it is Frayz is yours stands vertically up your down tube. Mine needs to sit horizontally, so asked if they could make it that way...but it has come through sitting vertically like yours.

Ah, i see, would it not be possible to mount elsewhere on the RHS of your buggy so even though it wraps around the tube in a vertical manner. It would when viewed by you be the correct way up if you know what i mean

Agree with Tiny mate. The 3.5 wont be enough anyway, you'll want a 5m minimum.

I Just spoke to SpALLY , Told him going to Barling rather than BL's due to the direction of wind , He feels oblidged to go to BL as this is what he told Shrimpo , but depends if Al is flying tomm he will find out @ 10am tomm , I will be back @ BL over the weekend as the wind is forecast to change back to the West

yeah, told Al before xmas i would go over this week, spoke with Al today and if he is going to BL then i will stand by word and go over there, even though barlings may be better suited to the wind.

Col once i know my bonus at the end of Jan no doubt there will be some more kites coming, may even end up being able to sell some of the bullets

Ha ha, youre doing it the right way though mate. You can always sell the Bullets on for more/less what they cost you.

It does get expensive building a quiver but its more fun than all this scooby lark lol
