Mr Paul any further update on when the Salix delivery is expected?  I'm off work wednesday and would love to have a look around if your Salix gear is on display then.

Well, they said the softs won't arrive in the country until the 3rd week of feb, but the bats may be ready before then. They may well just send it all together though so I'm not convinced we'll have any of it by Wednesday. Sorry about that! If I had any control at all I would get it in sooner but my hands are tied unfortunately...

Worth waiting for though, their softs look fantastic this year. As they do most years to be honest.

Apart from this Torque, we also got following today:

2 x Pod Grade 1: both 2.9
1 x Praestantia Performance: 2.6
1 x Wasp Performance: 2.8

I think the Wasp taps up the best of the lot actually...

Too busy knocking in bats to put any more photos up today, but if someone is genuinely interested in buying any of the aforementioned bats, please PM me and I will email you some pics.  Cheers.

You've got to be happy with that.

The Praestantia...

Sorry, really behind on the knocking in, so can't take any more pics.  But you're coming to the shop next week anyway, aren't you, Yash? Best to see them all in person really, and the other half should've arrived by then too...

Have the rest of the bats and the softs arived yet Paul?  Hoping for a decent sized bonus this month and a fair chunk of it could be coming your way if these bats are as good as I am expecting them to be!

We have most of the softs, but no bags yet, and still waiting for the other half of the bats... Which bat were you considering? We (stupidly!) only took one Pod Players and that's already been pre-ordered, but still have a few other decent options available...

Don't think I could justify the cost of a players but after seeing the Torque that Tushar bought I have to admit that they do look stunning.

In all honesty I probably don't need a new bat but if I saw one I liked then I would be tempted.  Not sure which model but would probably be a grade one or a performance due to the cost.  Would quite like to pick a couple up and see what they are like in the flesh.  I don't want you to put any a side for me as I can't guarantee that I will actual purchase one.

Problem is, if you pick one up they are hellish difficult to put back down! ;)
