I hate to sell you both - your jean guessing is almost as bad as your bat guessing :)
For the record, they are Mambo.

I would say Warsop based purely on the handle comment or a Millichamp.

Not sure about the jeans, but the bat is the same profile as an old county but of mine.

Well - somebody on here got it right - The Finisher. The bat is in fact a Wessex Cricket Bat and the model is the Perfection - bats are made in charmouth, however i'm not sure whether he just shapes a part made, buys in blanks and stickers them up or makes the whole bat from the ground up. I will post pictures later of the labels.
I will try and make a visit to him this year, last time i bought a bat off him was years ago and i didnt have an interest in how they were made - now i do and i would like to see what he does with the bats.
Anyway - it may be the case that those who said hunts county could also be correct, as last time i was there he had a fair bit of hunts stock lying around the house.......i shall endeavour to find out :)

Charlie French the old 2000 or Tourist models.

Oh I see we've already been told, that was my other guess though  ;)
