I was never complaining about his service , just saying I hadn't been able to get hold of him for a bit, seems he is snowed under with work hence being hard to get hold of . Must be doing somthing right ....

Afternoon Matt, I never realised you did SFS hoses, can you get all the range? I had to source some last week and ordered them of G.P.R i'd have given you the order if I'd have known..

For the record Matt is a top bloke and one of the most personable people I have ever dealt with.......

Regards

Ian

I have rung businesses in the UK previously and although one call doesn't call the earth calling from Australia, I constantly buy parts from overseas and in the end it all adds up. Its just much easier (and free) to buy parts online. (which I assume that's why you have an Ebay shop). Im sure my overseas brothers would agree...
