    Alistair,

    Really great to hear that you are mobile now. Own car does give you few options I think.

    Do you promise to wear chest waders while driving?

Parked up go and do a bit of fishing pick up a curry watch a bit of TV lying in my bunk then off to sleep. Oh good times and got payed for it aswell.Rod,waders and rest of gear packed nicely into cab storage. Car has always got my gear in it.

    Getting the car of your wife could your only thing that may hold you back.
