    How do you know they were made in Britain? Purchased in Britain or
    supplied from Britain is not the same as "Made in Britain" Supplied in a
    Bearmach box does not mean Made in Britain, supplied in a Rover box does
    not mean Made in Britain either. (There used to be a place in China
    called England, so goods could be labelled Made in England.) A friend of
    mine used to make compter products in Israel labelled' Made in USA"
     I have some U bolts that were made in Britain, I know because I made
    them in Britain, but I don't know if the steel was British Steel, even
    though it was AQD released!
    YPYMATYC.
