The crux of the matter right there.

Where's all the GN stuff gone then?

Oblivion was refurbed and died spectacularly
GN500 swapped with Chad
Floor fell out the Duffle bag
Prestige gloves started coming unstitched in a couple of places
Oblivion gloves sold to a teammate
Thigh guards were cheap enough I bought them out of curiosity (and they no longer match the rest of my kit  :-[)
I still have the pads but am looking to sell them  ;)

Have to say having has salix bats for a long time -in fact I was described by an un-named member of the forum as a salix(woman of the night found in kings cross) I have just got off Mike on here (excellent to deal with) a used h4l hellfire to see what everyone was raving about.It has a remarkable pick up,is massive for 2lb 8 and has a great handle I wanted that, for once I was too slow in the sale section!  :(

So I am being converted to h4l. Who would of thought a small outfit could be up there with the big boys for quality.. I'd go as far as to say they're better quality than some of the big boys. Matt makes each batt individually and gives it his full attention, while some brands are all about quantity. That personal attention given to each bat is worth it's weight in gold to my mind

Now...just need to score some runs with it
I haven't ever done with with any of my kit, you've set yourself a high standard  ;)

And some other bits and bobs lurking in my bag:
Oakley radars with spare yellow lenses
Wash kit
Deodorant
Cricket balls
An indoor ball
Grip cone
Spare grips
Aero P1 chest pad
Spare sweat band
Spare inners
Masuri internal padding
Masuri swoopa band
Elbow and knee supports




The indoor ball? Plastic one or have you found something similar to the aussie yellow ones but in red?

The indoor ball is a horrible red hollow plastic thing with no real seam that somehow swings round corners and never travels quite as far as you think it's going to.

What is this Aussie yellow ball you speak of?  ???

They're good, actually like an cricket ball! Just yellow, lighter and a bit softer. Tiflex do something similar I think that some leagues use, ones I play in use a pink cheaper version.

Yellow ones are a tad softer/lighter than the red ones, but still bloody hurt if you get hit.

Would you recommend these for dead indoor nets? Where are these pink ones?

@ppccopener  - Surely Carlo this now means we must find a netting venue around Heathrow so that your Hellfire can meet my Warbird. Perhaps they will mate!!
