Beautiful flies Ruard. I want a golden plover skin in the worst way, but have been too cheap to buy one. Your flies makes me want a golden plover skin even more.

I tried the "I will resist temptation" thing to but temptation prevailed. I got mine from Cookshill as well and never looked back. It is a beautiful skin and well worth it.

Ray,
Why don't you try this; "I can resist temptation, I can resist temptation - but I don't want to"?
It just might help...

Ray,
I have to admit, the Cookshill Golden Plover skin I have is a beautiful thing to behold. Larger than I imagined too. Lots and Lots of feathers.

You always "need" more....or, maybe, want more than you need.
Go for it - then you don't have to search all your stuff for a few weeks...
