    Glenariffe hatchery is no longer...hasn't been running for years And Montrose Hatchery is run by a mate. Plus at this time of the year the only Salmon you'd find in the rivers would be like a silver sprat

    That's great to hear

    I need to find more display space. The "reserve" collection in the barn cupboard is expanding continually - must keep off Ebay......
    Even sticking to tight guidelines - 1:43rd Canam cars, F1 machines 1950's, 60's 70's some 80's, selected sports cars similar era, Lotus, Abarth & Mclaren and 1:24th mainly road bikes, space is at a premium......
    I gave up on kitsets when eyesight started to get dodgy and marriages started to fall apart....
