Something is wrong. In my opinion, Iain would not let other swap members down without good reason. I have not seen a posting from him for some time and although I did not participate in this swap, I have in previous Christmas Swaps held by Iain. This has been an annual swap for several years, but there was no announcement that I am aware of this year from Iain.
I have found Iain to be generous. On one occasion when we were taking about Juri Shumakov's tubes, Ian sent me a number of bottle tubes for me to try, and I didn't even ask him to do so. Perhaps Deb knows what has happened. Neville (Nev) Gosling Greater Vancouver B. C.

Hey, does anyone know if Iain is still lurking around these parts? Last I heard he had come down with carpal tunnel syndrome. Alan, so far as I know that is not a deadly disease -- but it can hinder ones tying.
