RTS Strafe was in Sainsburys too. They only had 1 of each though.

why have they spelt grappel that way instead of grapple?

Trademark reasons. They're not allowed to to protect "Grapple" since it's too common a word, but since "Grappel" is made up they can protect that. Trademarks are also supposed to cover things that sound similar, so in theory another company calling a yellow crane "grapple" would still be infringing trademark law.

Which two did you go to? IO went to Cameron Toll and they had none, HOWEVER they are getting a new case delivered on the 12th.

Tho one at Craigleith and the one near Murrayfield, no sign at either of them. Craigleith one still clogged with Seasprays.

I considered checking Craigleith, but think that the Medowbank one is the only other viable option left.

If anyone is in the south Essex area, check out the Sainsbury's at Rayleigh Weir. Picked Lugnut up Friday. They also had Strafe and Grapple
