Hi

Adestu, I've seen some of your posts on the bcuk site. Do love the 'pebble' you sent up to gerry1.

I'd love to get a bit of flint like that to work on. Up here in Scotland, as you know, we are flintless.

Would you be able to send a lump or two up here? Am happy to pay postage and fling in a swappy thing, but have no idea if anything I have would be any good to you.

morning
i have recently found an chalk quarry where i go shooting and have access to some pretty big chunks with the added bonus of having to be dug out which i'm led to believe makes for better quality flint as its not been affected by frost.i've made another post on bcuk in the swaps with a picture.take a look and let me know
