No, but I can put you on to a good divorce lawyer.  :wink

For ceramics I use the Tiemco version which are good and at +/- £12 are less than some of the fancier varieties. I bought mine from Niche Products but I'm sure there are lots of suppliers - maybe even one close to you.


I'm assuming your an Angus Lad

I find the tiemco one to small for my big  hands  :z6
Do they come in various sizes or are the all hobbit size?

I'm sure they are full ceramic (didn't know there were other variations).

One size to my knowledge - not a problem to me but then I work as a dressmaker.

The prices vary from site to site (quite considerably) but heres one in the range quoted

Hmmm, it is about as tricky as suggesting a new rod :roll We've bought two recently ( well, my sons have :z4 ) a high end Asus from PC World and a middle of the road Asus from Tescos. The one from Tescos is fine to be honest and only cost about £350 or £370?
