Hello and welcome Steve.
Feel free to join in and ask questions/give answers. We have met in the ether before, a discussion about a repair to a Hardy rod and some chatter about reels I believe. Pull up a chair, pour a drink and make yourself at home Brian (UK too) |

Hello Brian,
Thanks for the reply, I remember you or so the song goes! An interesting site, some nice rods and reels and some talented people. I was put onto this by Paul Machugh, goes by the name of Makymoo I think, do you know him? Hes just sent me some nice reels to do up. Are there many UK anglers here? |

Hi Steve
Are there many UK anglers here? Quite a few, and many more pop in and don't speak . . just like in life really 
Blatant self promotion is frowned upon, but if you join in and share you'll make friends. Cheers, -B- |

welcome steve
jump in and make yourself at home , and don't be one bit shy , seems alot of your U.K fellow country men read this great forum site and have tea but don't post on here ,we need more of you on here , and do you play the lollypop game also , i'll go check your site out , '' goes by the name of Makymoo '' i think you should of used a ''N'' nackymoo , he was funny , sure made us laugh , ask him how his glove is holding up for me would ya , trust me on this steve , just don't shake his hand if he's wearing a lonely glove , only shake the hand with no glove on it he always had some good posts , i do really think he's missed some , it was never boring around here with him posting , he just got a little carried away with a joke and i think his feelings were hurt a bit , LOL say hi to him for me , and again welcome steve

Rich, I was going to ask on a different thread, as to introducing myself to nackymoo,and how would I recognise him, you said 'look out for the man with 1
glove', etc. I did'nt have a clue what you were on about. Please explain!
 steve .
P.S. Steve, another Brit here, hello.

nope, still in the dark on this one. I will ask nackymoo on the 25th at the auction if I see him. Does he really only wear one glove? Is it leather or some man
made material?
The penny has just dropped. Thanks Brian. Laughed for a good 5 mins. solid. Hope he isn't serious about the 'other' use of the glove. Nice fish though! 
Just read the whole post. I can't believe how an innocent bit of humour developed into something so heavy! I bet nackymoo needed some prozac after all that.
