In reply to Ian Parnell:

Phew, not sure about that, Ian, a couple of career changes have b*ggered up my memory banks or maybe just age.
Ray did some work experience at the Ambleside shop when he left the RAF, organised by Mark Carr from Troll.
I can almost visualize an invoice for his shop but not quite sure of the name!
He was into paraponting and sky diving as well as climbing/ outdoors. I have a hunch the shop name did not include any of the usual climbing related words.
