doubt it...I bet I could still make them turn out a lovely poo/beige colour :)
They are interesting. I wonder if they are easier to use than normal DH glass?
will they be available over here or do you need to order from across the pond?
oooerrrr! I likes them lots (I think my bank card's just run off to hide!!thankfully! :D)
kath
I think some will have to be added to my list when I go to America :)

Sorry Turtle, but the test batches and such like from DH are across the pond.... they don't sell them over here....
ooo some lovely ones in there, and some original Terra ;D ;D
Do you get customs grief if you order from the states?

I placed a small order (for seconds) a couple of months ago which came in under customs charges worked out cheaper than buying non seconds over here and arrived in less than 2 weeks!

It depends on the value of your order Turtle.... if you were to order say just one batch of the DH for $20.00 then you would get away without the Customs ransoms etc., but any more than this and you would get snagged with it, unfortunately.
Thanks for the heads up, i saw it whilst on my hols and decided to treat myself ;D
I just received them, Doesn't quite look like my original terra rods, which are thin, dark brown outside and very stripey, these look a bit like ekho but stripey inside - will have a go and keep you posted!

Interestingly, despite my earlier reply Turtle, I have just picked up my box of DH Test Batches from the Post Office and it has managed to slip through the Customs net this time, despite the value of the contents being over £20.00.....
I think that's the first time that has ever happened!!!
How do you know if it has been caught? My package doesn't have anything from customs on the outside, do you think mine slipped through too?
girls do you mind me asking how much over the £20 limit you were for customs and what size box it was?
if anyone wants to do a joint order or split some glass there are a few i'd like!
I've just had a friend pick up my DH order while visiting the US, so have just got it no customs, no robbery and no postage. Sheer joy! :D

You'll know! Either Parcel Farce or RM will demand money with menaces before you get to see your parcel, including a £8 or £15 fee just for the priviledge of them extracting the money for the Government [seems no rhyme or reason which figure, in my book]. When you pay them they will either drop the parcel in surprise at your keeness or file it somewhere safe that no one knows about for a few days. If you got it hassle free they've either decided it's under the limit or overlooked you; either way rejoice!
