I got the flies today I tie the odd fly without a vice myself, mostly pippettes for francis and snaelda, as they don't fit on a tube needle. It's not something you see a lot of these days, tying in your hands.

Glad you got the flies as I was anxious to complete them.
Why do you think I was doing them at 0400?
Seriously, though, some nights I go to bed at 2200 and wake up wide eyed and bushy tailed after 5 hours solid kip.
It is on to my next swap now.
As regards why I tie tubes by hand, I think I was getting frustrated at the time spent taking the tube on and off the needle. Probably a Chuck style Pin vice is the one for me when doing tubes - but, hey, hands are free!

No Flies from yourself yet Dai.
I do have a card from the postie to go and sign for a package, that might be them.
I will sit and go through the sets tonight and double check what flies are still to come.
Happy new year.
Dave.

I have got your flies Dai . I am waiting on 1 set of flies now in order to complete the swap. I have sent the person a PM, although he has not been active very much on the forum of late. if i don't here back over the next few days I will send out the 9 sets of flies I have, and send you all back your spare fly. Unless of course you would all be willing to donate your spare to the yorkhill auction. Thanks for your patience. Dave.

My sincere apologies to all for holding things up a little. I've confirmed with Dave that the flies were sent by Express Mail and should be with him in the next day or two.
Thanks for your patience.
William.

Hi Guys sorry for the Delay with the swap.
I now have all the sets of flies, packed and ready for postage first thing in the morning.
A big thank you to all who took part in this our, first of many swaps to come. A very high standard of tying throughout, and some cracking patterns.
February's swap will be posted shortly if you wish to take part.
Dave.
