I have a local source of new 10m ratchet straps in blue at GBP 8.50 each if anyone is interested? The straps are "plated" at 2000daN and 4000daN ultimate strength (that's 2 tons and 4 tons in old money if I'm not mistaken). I could bring a batch to Internal Fire on the 9th of October if that is of interest? Otherwise I am going up and down the M40 and M6/M1 on a reasonably regular basis and could drop off within a few miles of same. Let me know if you want any.
TTFN
