Why oh why do I finish at 5.15 on a Friday?
Having paid for a load of goods from Vitas in installments (dating back to May!) I have a parcel waiting for me at home.
Many thanks to Jake for an excellent service. He has answered all my questions in double quick time, was very accomodating to my staggered payment method and kept me informed of everything from the word go. I cannot praise him highly enough, and would reccommend him to anyone in a heartbeat.
If your after new kit, drop Jake a message on here or give him a call, there's a word class level of service guaranteed.
Now, 5 hours left at work, then I can go home and open this!

Because of the heartwood! But boy, does it look like a stunner!! And 99% of us would snap up a "G2" like that :o

I had a look at your bat at the Vitas event last week @WalkingWicket37, looked a good stick.

I'm happy as a pig in mud right now!

Great pair of batting gloves you've got there. Love the prestige range

Since when have pink hot pants been acceptable wear on a cricket pitch?

Which clubs did you play on the Newcastle tour @Vitas Cricket? Or was it newcastle stoke?

Gateshead Fell
Durham Pilgrims
Benwell Hill

Gateshead Fell are a good bunch of lads, played for a team they had in a charity game in 2014. Got offered a place in the 2s. Where did you play the Durham Pilgrims? Is it a uni side?

And the pictures of the rest of my stash.
The fetching pink shirt you've seen.
5 Gray Nicolls fibreglass scuff sheets.
I have not taken a picture of these, but they are fibreglass scuff sheets that are the length of a whole bat, I think they're excellent.
A bat mallet
Does what it says on the tin. Again, no picture needed.
2 pairs of plain white trousers.
They were originally bowls, but they feel great quality.
There's no logo on the outside but a Hunts County label inside, and they feel light but sturdy. They don't feel like they'll disintegrate after a slide in the field. Another nice feature is the zip up flies, allowing quick access if you need to wee behind the sight screens.

GN Prestige gloves
Not taken them out the packet yet, but as I already have one pair I know these are top quality sausage finger gloves.
(http://i1206.photobucket.com/albums/bb450/CPye061194/20151204_201356_zps9r7hukw9.jpg)
Horizon test socks
I'm not sure how I ended up with these, but I like decent socks and Jake said these were the best of the best.

Masuri elite titanium and stem guard.

I also had some extra thick "comfort padding" for the inside that I need to fit.

We played them at Whiteleas, was a mixture of lads from loads of different clubs, mainly us lads who were at uni at the time!

@WalkingWicket37 That looks like a very nice GN500
I am not a big fan of scoops as the only scoop i have seen in action was a plank...but hope this one works for you.
