Nice! The stick at the front of the pile to left of the guy in the blue shirt (descriptive eh?) looks a proper gem.

Now I wonder where they're hiding the 2.6s......

The other person in the photo is famous Andrew Kember (AJK). It was a very hectic day as there were so many bats to go through. AJK and Tim Keeley r the 2 best bat makers in UK.

Are all of Salix bats made by hand Asad Bhai? I'm sure Andrew doesn't make all of them, does he?

Is it me but Andrew Kember looks very young

If you see Julian first and then Andrew and Tim you would expect them to be as old as Julian but they look a lot younger
