Well done on getting out and catching your target species 👍 And top marks to your lad on his quarry

A friend of mine recently bought a near mint Swedish 7000 for £60 He thought it was a very good price

We do well on crab for smoothies in the Bristol Channel, it out fishes other baits Doesn't seem to be any better than worm/squid for cod, even though the cod are always full of crab when gutted

Dripturd is due to make some sort of an announcement on the Friday 12th March If there isn't any good news regarding the locks reopening very soon, I will be forced to go and find Dai the shot The hitman from Merthyr, who legend has it, was on holiday in Dallas some time in the early sixties..........

If it was longer, so would I Does look mint though and I have enough rods...... I think

What length is it Dinoboy

It raised a smirk

I'm hoping to catch a few stragglers from this seasons cod run in the Bristol Channel (it was shaping up to be a half decent one) Hoping for an easing in the next few weeks If not, I'm breaking in the Senedd building in Cardiff bay and shitting on Dripturds office desk

Well worth an 8

Has ANYONE been out lately, be it boat or shore ? Dripturd has said at least another 3 weeks of this shite and no guarantee that the locks will be open even then Cabin fever is getting to me now

It was and I did it quite well There seems to be quite a few empty cans in there this morning

Haven't really had chance to look yet,I'll have a word with my acc and see what my tax liabilities will be as it stands If not too bad, I'll wait until June/July On another note, my 3 daughters are here, along with their boyfriends I may have to be an antisocial twat and retire to my garage to get on the outside of a couple of cans of Bow When they're all together yakking, it gets unbearable

I think I need to by a load of SPJ kit from Terry and do a bit of corporate hospitalty on my boat I like your way of thinking Geoff, but Mr taxman may need a bit of persuading, should I get investigated

I'll have a look and see what deals are about tomorrow

I'd rather work out of an old Sherpa Actually, that wouldn't bother me much The Sherpa bit........not getting fisted

It's never appealed to me, usually a big payment at the end of the lease, or they sting you on excess mileage over 10/12k per year Or are there better lease deals available now ?

Have looked/enquired and there doesn't seem to be any new H2's available, all factory ordered, none in stock The deal I had was a shade over 20k plus VAT brand new, there are some 20 plate ones up for 24k plus My deal was through a leasing company, they buy in bulk and get tremendous discounts, then sell on for less than I can buy direct from Ford (unless you're one of Fishys family)

Been thinking about changing my van for a while and after looking at 2nd hand prices, decided to go new Ordered a Transit Custom 300 Ltd, 130ps, high roof, beginning of Jan and was told delivery would be end of March/April Had an email the other week to say that it had been put back to June/July, FFS Apparently Ford have done the same to most on the waiting list for H2's (high roof) and Amazon have ordered 7000 new Transits, which they wanted delivered within 12 weeks of ordering them I don't know how much of that I believe, but there are certainly a lot of new Transits about with the Amazon logo I suspect that most of Fords production lines won't be fully staffed due to Covid and also we have Brexit affecting imports etc Really needed to be buying a van in this tax year, not next Decisions decisions

So that's another jig I'll have to buy a bucket load of then 🤠

Just had another look at the photo's you put on Terry Whatever is sat on that coaster next to the pen on your desk (looks like a remote of some sort) FFS put it square on the coaster, I've just had an anxiety attack

How can you not want something out of that shop !

Fair play Terry, that's some shop I will be in the market for a rod shortly (and maybe a reel)

Very good, made I chuckle

6.5, chuckled

Lovely boat, couldn't find one when I was looking a year or two ago
