Threadromancy is my speciality!
I figure people won't mind having this impressive post bought back from the depths.
I talked at some length with Guppug at Salute yesterday (a pleasure, as ever, hope your marathon homeward journey went ok!) and he mentioned having posted a thread of his impressive collections. I couldn't bare to admit that I didn't recall it while we spoke, but had to look it up today - I definitely missed it entirely when originally posted!
Very impressive mate. A superb collection of painted beauty.
