Hi Everyone,

Hope some of you made it along to the Show, it was a very successful day and the many who were there seemed to be thoroughly enjoying themselves.

A nice warm up to getbarbel anglers in the mood for the new river season which is not far away now.

All the best,

Steve.

Nearly 400 of us attended.

I met alot more people, but particularly our own (JK) John Kent, nice to put a face to a name, rather than an old camper van/forum/smilies/wink_smiley.gif

Sorry for the late reply Fred, I've only just seen this. Good to meet you at long last. I met a lot of decent people all very willing to help and offer advice. All in all a very interesting and enjoyable day.
