According to companies house Helios Cricket is a dissolved company so I presume not - used to be a fan of them I have to admit, shame!

Sorry Shentser I won it. Joeljonno, thanks for the heads up on the auction, by all accounts Helios Midas are decent sticks and are pretty hard to get hold of nowadays. According to the seller he only used it twice in the nets so it should be in good condition, I'm hoping for £51 I've picked up a bargain. I'll give an update after it arrives.

I think the answer to your question is in fact Brimble.
