Greyman 25,151 Posted November 1, 2018 Report Share Posted November 1, 2018 I believe asa is still trading as Romany custom catty,s mate, I think he does his stuff on Facebook in one of the catty forums, not sure as I don't go on there but that seems to be the way many have gone, he also has a few films on utube you may be able to contact him through, don't be tempted to go with gamekeeper John, he promised my daughter a catty for me for Christmas in around October/Nov last year and she ended up buying one else were then had to file a dispute to get her money back from her, he deletes any negative comments from Facebook and would,nt even respond to her emails Quote Link to post Share on other sites

A rude ignorant man he is. Sorry to moan on your thread Flynndog, I wish I could be more help to ya. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
