    WANTED; Veg tan leather scraps

    Thanks a bunch, I churn these dratted things out by the hundreds. We have folk wear them to show they have a ticket; as a system it works well and people like them. (particularly after I point them out) But...why do folks immediately stuff them under their clothes? Sure fire way to forget them

    Is "preparedness" a state of mind?

    Yes, I remember a day on the M6, just south of Tebay, going down into the valley. "Theres a wee plane flying below the peaks" it turned out to be a Hercules. But that doesnt mean other people should be allowed to do this.
