Toucan Supplies
Are they still going?  I searched for them recently and nothing came up, had bought from them through eBay in the past, but their eBay shop seems to be closed.

Hi,

Been having a look this morning, the Toucan Supplies Ltd that I'd used were  toucansupplies.co.uk (which is still registered but no longer active).  They were based in Wellingborough.  Toucan Environmental are in Bristol, so I don't think they're the same.

oops! Thanks for the correction, sorry about the misleading post   :o , it was the logo that did it, I'm sure it's the same. I've just corrected my other post in another thread, save wasting  other peoples time. Cheers Paul
