I needed some nyrods, and drove down to the local hobby shop. There was no place to park within a mile, so I drove home.

I went back the next day, at a better time, and found parking. Of coarse, the LHS didn't have nyrods, nor know what they were.

Two trips to the LHS and I still had to order from Tower.

If local hobby shops want us to support them, shouldn't they have basic supplies on hand ?
