Well, haven't done much about the fibreglass fly rod yet but I do have an excuse.
On Feb 10th we were pretty well snowed in and I thought I would take the dogs for a walk down the road. As I was leaving my wife called out "be careful on that ice, you could fall down and break your neck" and guess what, I made about 75 yards up the road, stepped on some ice and fell down and broke my neck, and not a drop taken
I am out of hospital now, though still wearing scaffolding to hold my head up. I am due back in April to see if I require surgery or not so the rod building and the fishing are going to have to wait a bit.
Having said all that, I've seen the results of the scan and given the possible alternative I am quite happy to be sitting here at the computer "talking" about it.
Cheers Dave
