Hi John,

Just read your PM, and you consider me signed up :D I'll tie a batch of size #24 chironomid emerger's which have been doing the business here in South Wales when the trout either get a little picky or are gorging on emergers.

Will be in touch shorotly for your address.

I saw your post about this over at flytyingforum.com and said I'm in over there. For good measure I guess I should say I'm in on here too. I was in on this swap last year and had fun tying them and even more fun fishing the flies I got back. I'm tying sort of a reverse shuttlecock in size 22 or 24.

P.S. My screen name is "Crackleback" on flytyingforum.com.

Thank´s for the invite John... Looking forward to participate in this one, you learn alot by playing with the small stuff. Will make a Swedish diptera pattern, maybe with some quill in it.

Later
Nik

Gareth had a very good question as to the cost of shipping Flies from UK to USA (including the self address/self stamped return bubble mailer). I personally have counted on the Post Office to calculate cost (& and it never has been expensive). Maybe some of you tyes from the UK can better answer Gareth's question !!!!!
