Thanks it was one of those bad picture buys I like, you never know what you will get. I got it cheap enough that I .am pleased.

They're also surprisingly good to use, nice and light , well balanced for long use and those small triumph nibs generally great to use. As you say, didn't cost much which is an added bonus!!

Regards
Hugh
