I have reels: from a Free Spirit Searcher through Aerials and Mitchells to StrikeRight.

I have books: from “Crazy River” through “Hooked on Floats” to “Rods, how to make them”

I have Harcork floats and Dave Austin pieces including his tri-rest

Plus I have some TFF 10 year badges (all proceeds back to the forum)

Never done this before; have to say I am terrified, but looking forward to meeting people.
It sounds as if you will be busy! I am sure that you will enjoy it, no need to be fearful! I will hopefully find you as I am presuming you will wear a TFF badge. I will be sporting three including the 10 year one, so I am sure we will meet up!
All the best,
Ted :Hat:

I had to 'google' Jema fish, but I always look forward to seeing your tables and the items for sale! I am sure that you will be busy and I hope that we will have a good attendance on the day! :Hat:

However we know how to get our priority's right and Sue managed to get the first appointment at 08:40 :) It means we will not be there for doors opening time but it will not be much after.

Looking forward to meeting as many of you as possible :Thumb:

John :)
I nearly had a heart attack when I started reading your post Caneforme, thinking you may not be there to bring me the lovely rod that you have sold to me. Phew! 😅.
Looking forward to seeing you.
All the best

Keith I will be there even if it's on a stretcher :Hahaha:

I have the cash already in my wallet.

It would be nice to know how many TFF members will be going to Redditch on Sunday? Each year I miss out on meeting members that I have not met before, it is nice to put a face to a name. Please come and say hello to myself and John (Fredline) we should be easy to find! :Hat:

lol, we have thick coats, 2 tins of baked beans and a slice of bread, that will see us through the winter :Hahaha:

Your rod is all ready to go, hanging up by the side of the rod tube that will keep it safe on it's journey.

John :)

I will have my Hardy hat on, adorned with fish badges and of course a TFF badge. I will also have a huge smile on my face.
