    does my head in how us trimmers in the uk have it too hard to get the stuff we need to do our job and have to go elsewhere for our supplies !!!!!!!!!! cant get landau foam , cant get good glue , cant get thick thread , cant get good door panel clips and the list goes on !!!! so have to order from Holland , germany and usa ….. just went to California and just walked in to keystone and walked out with weldwood glue , thick thread , 808 clips as was all on the shelf as well as landau foam !!!!! come on uk suppliers pull your socks up !!!
