The team here at Oldnautibits had an excellent Christmas and New Year and we very much hope all our friends and vsitors had likewise! I was able to enjoy some R & R and finally got to read Geoffrey Wellum's excellent 'First Light' which to my mind is one of the best descriptions of what it was like to take part in the Battle of Britain and beyond. The 100th aniversary of the loss of the Titanic ( recently brought to the fore by the tragic and perhaps unnecessary stranding of the Costa Concordia )and the Queen's Diamond Jubilee River Pagent this summe, with the largest flotilla every assembled, suggest demand for marine memorobilia will be high. Despite the lack lustre economic outlook we are already fielding a large number of enquiries with much of our new stock selling almost as soon as it comes in .To this end if you have a specific requirement and you don't see the 'Nautibit' you require on the site, please drop us a mail and if we don't have one we may know where to find it! Likewise if you have an item or collection to sell we would be pleased to hear from you. We look forward with relish to the challenges that 2012 will chuck at us and we hope it will also be a good one for us all. Geoff Pringle Oldnautibits HQ |
