No innovation (surprise surprise)

It's a product stolen from the American hunting industry, they use them as hunting blinds over there, normally in Real Tree.

I've got pets that are more innovative than Hamidi.

Funny you should say that. That's where Chris Manifold of Aqua products got the idea for his Pramhood shelters. From a BT phone engineers wet weather shelter. You know the red stripe ones you used to see over the manholes on the side of the road. Bit of trivia for you.

To an 8 year old, the Winfield tackle display in Woolworths was the equivalent of an early 90s Jonson Ross or Tackle Box catalogue.

Absolutely right. It almost made being dragged around the town centre by my parents on a Saturday morning bearable. Almost.

I think I can remember the excitement of buying a Winfield Thames float with my pocket money, and catching perch on it.

Fox Camo Boxers £20.99

WTF would you need camo boxers and who pays 21 quid for them anyway.

Carp and camo tax gone barmy.

Imagine putting on camo boxers and then you can't find your dick.

I hadn't seen anything about this but I've just watched the YouTube videos about it and agreed it's not good, he's trying to make it look easy to assemble but it's a car crash

To me,at this the point the whole omc brand looks like a disaster, he launched quickly with stuff that was already available from every other brand and it was a bit disappointing that there was nothing different, now there's some “different” products but it's a disaster

I get the impression he's trying too hard to come up with something innovative, probably to please shareholders and/or for the sake of his own ego to justify the move from Korda but it's just not working out
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
