Thanks to Mike for hosting the day , to Ben and Hamish for bringing along the toys. It was really enjoable having a cast with the various rods , even though my wallet is a bit lighter  :wink If I'd thought the weather was going to be so nice I'd have bough the barbie along , maybe next time.

The western 3 rods are nice the 10FT#7 would be a braw boat rod and the rest are really well finished with a nice matt blank, if mrs monksmyre would let go of the purse i could maybe get one of them bad boys :z4

Another highlight of the day was the chilli soup made by hamish :z16,come to think about it maybe thats how my erse was numb :shock  :shock

Only kidding Hamish the soup was braw  :z16  :z16
