I like to make things for my fishing, bobbins, tables, monkey climers (way back), my version of the Ronnie rig components and a rod pod, the pod is not perfect yet, so, I change the legs, then the rear butt rests, now the buzzer bar, what about the length? ah yes change that too, after a day on the lathe and Fannying around with all the bit n bobs....I put it back together as it was 6 years ago, bloody sad ain't it
EDIT
oh and I polished the lip on 3 of my spools so when I cast there is much less resistance, BTW the furthest I have to cast is about 40/50 yds.
Yeah still sad.

Been buying kit. As I live in Slovakia I'm able to fish if I want nights too. But seen as it was minus 17 c last night don't think that will be happening. Funny thing is I can go fishing but it's frozen but can't take my snowboard to the ski centres as they have closed them . Bored out my nut

Next time your racing let me know and I'll try and get to the track on the bike, may even get a few mates to come if we can find accommodation that does good food and beer. Have a four bed house sorted on the Isle of Wight if the tt goes ahead.

Been cancelled for two years now, still trying to get my money back from a payment I foolishly paid up front on my bank card in 2019, then agreed to carryover to 2020 which is cancelled again. Lesson learned, credit card in future.
Roll on normality ffs

I'll second that. Due to sheer boredom I find myself browsing the online fishing shops much more than I would normally. New rods, reels, bivvy, bags and all manner of other fishing bits and bobs keep turning up at our door,to the bemusement of my wife

Ive got so many gigs I've paid for but cant get refund as they keep re-arranging them,
Worst one was tickets i bought, then work meant I would be away so sold, only for the work thing to be cancelled. I wont get the money for the tickets I sold until after the re-arranged gig has happened. Still, at least a nice refund to me in 2029!

2029, possibly!
We are held to ransom with some Leeds Festival tickets, same as carried over
I have an hotel overnight and spa booking too
Not to mention this years holidays, hopefully might get something in this country but I expect it to be mental everywhere if things open up again!
And all I really want to do is go fishing, preferably in some warmer weather!

Working from home but not a spare second vs normal years. All my colleagues that normally travel are now sat at home sending me emails. Upside is that lockdown is flying by.
I'm quite jealous of those who have time to be bored, I seem to be as busy as ever, and am regularly doing little jobs on the way home too.
Plus I'm finding a lot of people struggling with isolation want work doing just for some company. I can come into your house and fit a new kitchen but you can't have a mate over for a drink
