I'll just pick them up the next time I come to town. Glad you liked one of them at least. We have yellow and green as well if you ever want something different. Tell Stephen to invite you to come out with us. See you soon.

Thanks Alex, I wish I could have had a chance to get one of your shots sir. Hopefully I will head that way again soon and rectify the situation. It was nice to meet you however briefly.
