So there you have it. Another fisherman turned to the 'Boo side...
Looks lovely Iain and it sticks out a great line.
The video looks good too.Was any of that last batch of music any better for you than the first lot?

As for the whole "split cane " "bamboo" thing, I don't recall pandas ever eating cane. Technically it should actually be "tapered Tonkin grass"... :z7

Currently residing in the Luddite district of Warsaw so its Split Cane for me  :z13

For some reason, I've always preferred the word "bamboo" to "split cane" ...... perhaps this goes back to my schooldays! :wink


Thats cos if you half close your eyes it looks like "Barrio"  :z4 :z4 :z4

You don't have to do that if you are Chinese Sandy........... Relax I'm not xenophobic, or should that be zenophobic.


Calling all would be apple technotwats - I also can't view the vid on the I-pad, which I wish I'd never bought.

I've looked at the settings to see if there was anything that I could change from a compatibility standpoint but to no avail. I uploaded as all previous stuff and there hasn't been an issue before. Anyone any ideas?

Wooden shit rods & rubber rings, hmm, let me think about that Euan  :z4
Could be fun if I brought along an air gun and some matches I suppose, count me in.

I thought I'd try a WF3F Mallard? Which took a little bit of getting use to but is will be nice for soft and gentle river stuff.

Iain

Matches & air gun?  Sir, you are a real ned!   :z7

Hong Kong scaffold! Love it!  :z4 :z4 :z4 :z4
Good news about the music. I'll see if I can dig up some more but there's enough there to keep you going for a while.
So now you have a "stick" you will also receive "stick".
Be prepared to get a lot of grief but shrug it off safe in the knowledge that some scaffold poles are better than some new lightning conductors.

Ben,
Should I put armoured plating on the Red Oktober?  :z7
