Saw Jon Brooks skulking on the Johnson Outdoors stand. He's pimping Humminbird and Geonav kit now - do go along and ask him about their chartplotter prices if you feel the need for a giggle.

I liked the side scanning fish finders untill I found out the price
the transducer is the size of a kids trainer and would snap off any rib slamming around at high speed!!!!

three days down and another four to go. Has to be the worst LBS I have ever worked at, so few visitors. Still, if you want time speaking to the dealers/manufacturers you can get them all to yourself for many hours if required!

Navico and SMG for the next four days if anyone cares to drop by and relieve my boredom!

I parked there today. Only five minute stroll to the show entrance and £5 all day v £3 per hour.

Jubilee Line was out today, and apparently there were problems on the DLR too which can't have helped. Felt more like a Wednesday than a Sunday though.

Looks like I'm going next Sunday now, the 18th, and last day.

The Smaller Nashers found out I was going without them and all hell let loose.
I did my anything for an easy life act and said I'd take them.

Say hello to Charlie (from Shaun) next time you visit the Watchful
