There was a Craftversa. I had a waggle of it and rather lovely it was, too.

I could'nt make it as too far to cycle. Went on ebay instead and spent a fortune as I accidentely won most of my bids. More on that elsewhere! I'll have to eat pasta for the next month now!

Great to see everyone again - thanks for stopping in and saying "Hi": TFF-ers will always find a welcome corner to chat whilst I take a stall at Romsey and Redditch!

Had a nice morning mooching around my first tackle fair. Such a fever inducing array of goodies I've never seen the like of before! I left my wallet at home and just took some cash, which was just as well as I could have quite easily drained the bank account dry!

Bumped into Mark & Merlot - nice to see you both again. The TFF badge will come in handy at the next one to help pick out some of those I wouldn't normally recognise.

It was also nice to meet Jim on the VFC stall and relieve him of a rather nice mottled landing net handle. Also picked up a creel, which is currently having a bath, plus some Paul Cook floats and one of his prints.

Better start saving for the next one...
