No, we have moved from North Yorkshire and now live in Hampshire, so a much shorter journey!
At the end of the game, the pawn and the King go back into the same box........

Re: Romsey Vintage Tackle Fair 2nd April 2023
I have decided that my rod making gear, silks, including rare twists, rod rings, cork shives and reel bands should go to someone who can make use of them so I will have them on my table at Romsey as well as rods and reels.
I also have a home-made whipping station and rod rest which doubles up as a rod turner for varnishing if anyone can make us of them?

I am sure that you will miss using your rod making gear Nobby, but hopefully it will find a new home with someone that will use and appreciate it!Nobby wrote: βFri Mar 24, 2023 7:59 am I have decided that my rod making gear, silks, including rare twists, rod rings, cork shives and reel bands should go to someone who can make use of them so I will have them on my table at Romsey as well as rods and reels.

I have a quantity of fly tying materials which are excess to requirements. Feathers, dubbings etc. Nothing of outstanding quality, but very suitable for someone beginning tying, or for practise and experimentation.
Anybody interested? I will bring to Romsey.

No, we spoke at length last year about the glory of old glass (please don't spit your tea out!)
