no more rods Jim! I've a second hand one on the way and that's it! no more.

She who must be deceived has bought me a DVD - that's it! A fishing one of course.

Perhaps I'll treat myself to something niced but I honestly can't think what I need - apart from a bath obviously :z4

Thanks for the welcome guys, it's much appreciated. I got a Ron Thompson Zensorx 7wt rod, Shakespeare reel, Wf7f line and a few accessories plus I treated myself to an Oscar 9' 5 piece travel rod 7-9 wt as well (£28 via a well known auction site)
