Hi David.

Thanks for the offer. I managed to snap my carbon fibre spinnaker pole on my 
last
trip and am trying to make an internal sleeve to repair it. Nigel Graham has
given me some good advice but I need to make a male former to mould a repair
piece on and I think blue foam will be the best option as I can dissolve it from
inside the sleeve after I have made it. 

If the weather ever becomes flyable again soon, I can pop down to Gloucester or
wherever is convenient for you to pick it up. Good excuse for a flight and a
50 bacon buttie.

All the best for Christmas & New Year.

Richard.

to it even if in a cause which distracts you from your flying!

a boat and have used up or thrown away all the bits that I had left over from
my Europa.
