Oooopssss ...
Thanks to remind me to be cautious, I've a bulk roll of Tri-X to load pretty 
soon ...

Regarding the 100ISO films, if you like ol'fashioned films then you may try 
Plus-X or FP-4, both in D-76. Very classic combos.

I suggest you give some T-grain films a try too.
I haven't used delta but use very often Acros and TMX in Xtol 1+1 and these are 
really impressive films.
