looks like cricket kit heaven. you should convert it into a museum too and have a section of demo-samples, with an indoor school at the back.

I'll coach, providing I get to use the kit!

Thanks Leo for such a childish comment. It shows ur age.
If u haven't got any thing nice to write don't write for the sake of it.
This bat has never been used and it only had hairline crack which happened during shipment or during making.
This is under guarantee by Newbery and it was specially made by Tim Keeley.

I am already getting a lot of clothing orders so the answer to ur question is Yes

Lovely setup and lots of nice looking willow there asad.  8)
I may set my lounge up the same with those bat stands!! Would be an unusual way to decorate but what better sight when you come downstairs every day!!
I was looking at a contract in Swindon. I hope I don't get it though otherwise I may be tempted to buy more bats!!  :(
Will have to pop in though  ;)

Can't remember who it was with!!
Will check my emails....may have been a Consultancy?
But haven't heard so may not be considered - my daily rate is obviously too high! But they have to remember that I have a house, a family, 2 dogs, and many bats to look after!!  ;)
Would be great to meet up - I would even bring lots of my specials for you to tap up!

Shame that, although have just seen the new gear up on the website, can't believe the prices and how cheap they are, considering the SS gear is a model for a large number of brands. Asad has been really helpful as well, will be doing some business with him shortly

Post by: mattw on February 08, 2011, 01:16:41 PM
Do you have many 2011 range bags on show in your shop at the moment? If not when are you likely to have a full stock of 2011 gear?

I'm from Kidderminster(worcs), just had a look on the aa route planner and it says it takes 1hr55 so could share a lift with you or something if you're going down.

Just wanted to echo peoples comments about how good everything looks, I'm sure the shop service will be every bit as good as the online one, just a pity it wasn't a little nearer any of my locations. Might get down for a visit sometime though.
