Customs Charge Threshold

Gary, did you come across Arron Hadlow when wind/kite surfing?

Talking about all those ferrite components being made in china inspired me to look again at what came up when I was looking for EHT capacitors last spring. They are like a Polish RS.
I have put the details in "where to get sets and parts".

Hi Lawrence

No! I have never met Arron. Even if we were at the same launch I still wouldn't have met him. If the winds blowing guys go nuts, a glazed look comes over them as they rush to get rigged and they are continually snatching looks seaward wondering if the sail size is correct. So no conversation before and after maybe a little but most are again rushing as they stayed too long, missus and work probably waiting. Since retiring and getting some sense and time I can take a more leisurely path.

Hi Gary, we knew his parents, my wife worked with his mum, I remember Arron as a little lad who clearly had talent, they moved to South Africa and we lost touch, I digress so back to the customs charge etc.
