Hi folks :cool:

What ..... No Santa thread this year? :z4

What did he bring? .... I'll start the ball rolling :z7

A nice buff to keep me warm, The Lost World of Mr Hardy DVD, Joan Wulff's Fly Casting Techniques book, Jason Borger's Nature of Fly Casting book and a couple more goodies that haven't made it through the Christmas/bad weather post yet.

Cheers
Mike

I can only presume that you have been a very naughty boy H!

I got a great new jacket,  some  thermals, a rope, some new clothes and a book on the history of the Glen Tanar estate which is very interesting.

Clearly. Fortunately, "Santa" need not know (until it's too late to put me on the naughty step) that I've treated myself to one or two things from the bay of 'e' and am also thinking about one or two additional fishing rods reels lines items as a wee additional treat in the coming weeks  :wink
