    Shimano and spares? Both words in the same sentence? OK, I have managed
    to buy Shimano spares in the past...
    
    What's the catalogue like - big? interesting?

	Thanks, this is probably going to make my day - and it IS my 
birthday.

I find Geoffrey Butler very helpful, well stocked and competitively priced.
It's a crummy place to get to though...
