  • Wine and ebay don't mix!!

    Being a pernickety bugger I have been through numerous boat reels without ever being happy with any I have used, so I decided to get a Shimano. Lynn did advise that I sell my Penn and Diawa first, but I was having none of it.

    Anyway I kept getting outbid on Shimano charter specials on ebay and last night I was in for a 2000LD. After a few wines I decided I wasn't going to win the 2000LD, so on the spur of the moment I took a "buy now" option on a Shimano Triton and gave up on the charter special.

    I was a happy bunny and even this morning I was pleased with my purchase. Off we went to Kayos for a Miss Saigon rehearsal. Came home and yes you have guessed it...................I won the charter special bid!!

    So I now have 2 Shimanos plus a Diawa and a Penn boat reels!! £100 plus lighter, 3 reels too many and Lynn giving me grief.

    Happy Mother's Day everyone!!

                              There's been a few drunken purchases on eBay from me! One of those expensive purchases which you really want, but wouldn't pay for when sober.
