Your very lucky, i have a penchant for bass, boats and kayaks!
I import a lot of my rod components from the States, so hoping for a post-brexit trade deal that saves me a few quid!
pat its a lifestyle thing rather than a way to become rich!
I dropped out of the corporate system 10 years ago and decided that i would try and make a living from my passion. Long story short i am poor (ish) and happy rather than affluent and miserable, and although it brings its own stresses having to watch the pennies I wouldnt swap it for a 100k job working a 9-5 someone else.
Every rod i build i fall in love with, its an extension of my pride if you get what i mean, and i count myself lucky that i spend most of my life doing something i love.
(a new car and a holiday would be nice though ...lol!)
Good stuff Marty, it doesn't get any better than creating something you have a passion for and being happy in life.
sod the car and the holiday !.
Well maybe not, as I have a cruise and a new car on the way in the summer.
