John,
You really need to get out more often!.I,d never thought I would see the day when the Scottish section timepiece specialist was quoting numbers.How things have changed since the sixties when comets were disembowled for racing spares,and the bones left to be picked over by the rag&bone man.
(Farrell&son,s) were active in your old stomping ground I think.

Captain Vincent
Ps If you take up bowls,or a part time position as Aucterader lollipop man I will be really worried.
