Diggory - that is a great opportunity for you. Best of luck!
Such a long, long time to be gone, and a short time to be there.

It's nice to see a committed double gun enthusiast in charge of a firm of their stature.

Good on you, Dig, and best wishes for the venture. Can I now get a gun made up with my picture inlaid on the action? Everyone else has refused.

Goodness gracious Diggory, that's one bold move. Good luck on the venture. Lagopus..... p.s. I hope that you are not putting up the records search fee; I was just about to send details of a Lang gun in :-)
