Got my rod licence in the post yesterday. Just been out and brought a new 40" Landing net for the bigger stuff and a smaller 20" pan net for the river, still need to get two carp rods and a Pike rod re-handled after the mice got to them over the winter.

Lure Rod is ok thought so if i get a chance over the weekend i'll go for a wonder along the Little Ouse

Otherwise i'll be in the workshop trying to get soem work done on the Manta

Good luck over the weekend, hope you catch

Andy

All mine are expensive:

Cars (modifying/working on/building the kit car)
Movies - an expensive home cinema rig that keeps getting more expensive (dropped £1800 on amplifier just last week)
Cameras

I need cheaper hobbies! I should become a plane spotter..

You just need a better paying job Aaron ::)

Used to build alot of plastic kits, now maybe a couple a year and more for therapy nowadays :-\
Seem to spend what little time off that I do get either asleep or fixing summat on the Omega.
 ::) trouble is it repays me by breaking summat else :-\

Probably time for a spot of priorety adjustment...

Saw a big diesel loco hauling freight when I was up in Solihull last week and thought of you.. no idea what kind of loco it was, of course (looked familiar from pictures here, though) but my they do make an impressive noise when they're getting up to speed!
