I'm abroad for the next couple of weeks. I needed the break so badly indeed. I was not meant to work at all for 8 weeks after my operations, that was 6 weeks ago. I stupidly went back to work 16 hours a day 7 days a week, after just 2 weeks. I was working in pain every single day. Everything is A1 now I am away and stopped working for five minutes, but without forcibly removing myself from SHB, I was just going to make things worse again.

Orders are going out rapidly whilst I am away. We have loads of stock. I know FishOn sold out of 16mm cc Fizz S2 & 16mm balanced Fizz S2 within a few days. Not sure about the TackleBox as Gary is away on holiday, but I'd guess they will be similar. We have lots of Fizz S2 in all variation in stock. WhatsApp message the work mobile with full name on order & what you require if you need to order any. WhatsApp is the only way to get hold of me whilst I am away. When I get back we have new staff starting. Johnson Ross will be stocked before anything else happens. I am going to speak to the website designer today and see if the new website can be built before I return. I've just not had the time to write out all what's needed from my side. I will 100% get the Ocean thing I wrote posted as well over the next two weeks.

I nearly disappeared forever a few weeks ago at Royal Ascot. As folks on my personal social media will know, I won a lot of money. A certain member of this forum also won silly money off of the horses I told them all to back. I had two horses beaten in photographs on the last day. Both had been combined in £10 & £20 win trebles with numerous other double figure winners from the previous four days. Both of those horses were beaten inches in photographs. I won a life changing sum of money anyway. But if those two had won, I might well have been selling SHB along with the secrets and retiring on the spot

Give the shop a call and ask to speak to Ricci, Scott. They always have the particle in stock as far as I know. He has a little room out the back always filled with vats of bubbling particles.

The stuff you pick up and take home with you after your trip.... Whack 500g of salt in a big bucket. It will last a week then. If not take it home & freeze it.

I wouldn't think of having it posted I guess it wouldn't be cheap/cost effective,I'd be collecting for a trip down south 1st week sept, do you know if it would need to be used quickly or would it keep for any length of time as I may get more on my way back?

I'm not sure whether they post the particle (don't see why not?) but you can definitely order it and collect it as someone on my Kent syndicate uses it.

What a truly beautiful carp, not just the length and shape of the beast but the 2 tone colouration on the scales is just sublime.
Ps is that shops fermented particle available to buy ? Don't see it on fish ons website

My favourite carp that - Ricci's on some run at the moment. I had the other biggun from that lake several years ago (the silver common you posted previously) but white tips was always the dream. I always thought you'd know straight away if you ever had that one on the end
