If it's of any comfort to you, it's not only colonials that we discriminate against
Another winner (now five) is John Heckels.
John, unsure of your username, as I don't recognise the surname. Sorry. You actually got my email address wrong (missed the 'e' from the end of George, but it got to me somehow

)
One prize still up for grabs.

No problem, John, just didn't recognise the surname.
Last winner is Norman.
Tha tha that's all folks!
So, for the six winners as listed, if you haven't already sent me your postal address, I'll need that too, please (pm or email).
As there are two different prizes, Fox Hunter, Chas and rodp get to have first dibs on what they would like.
Thanks to all those who took part. Don't forget next month

I'd like the pocket sharpener if possible please George, although I feel like I need to contribute something as I've been meaning to buy one for ages.
I'm constantly using my knives as screwdrivers, scrapers, spanners, feeler gauges to fill the gap in the wrong sized spanners, as hammers, chisel's, surgical implements, for skinning and very rarely cutting things and for some reason every time I go to use them for cutting something they've lost their edge
So a big thank you George for running the competition!

its better than Christmas as its exactly what I wanted

Don't get too excited, or you'll have us feeling guilty when it's a let-down

I'd like a pocket sharpener please, if they are not all taken.
Thanks for this, Gren

George
It certainly won't be a let down as it will definitely be better than the stone, rock or pebble I find to hand to touch it up at the moment.

I'll take a fire starter George please, already have sharpener (somewhere) and they seem to be most popular so those that want can have (??? Can't understand that myself ??)
