• Hi all and welcome to TheWoodHaven2 brought into the 21st Century, kicking and screaming! We all have Alasdair to thank for the vast bulk of the heavy lifting to get us here, no more so than me because he's taken away a huge burden of responsibility from my shoulders and brought us to this new shiny home, with all your previous content (hopefully) still intact! Please peruse and feed back. There is still plenty to do, like changing the colour scheme, adding the banner graphic, tweaking the odd setting here and there so I have added a new thread in the 'Technical Issues, Bugs and Feature Requests' forum for you to add any issues you find, any missing settings or just anything you'd like to see added/removed from the feature set that Xenforo offers. We will get to everything over the coming weeks so please be patient, but add anything at all to the thread I mention above and we promise to get to them over the next few days/weeks/months. In the meantime, please enjoy!

I've just stumbled across this YT channel I think it's made by the original producer of the OoT programme (or was it Old Country?)

From what I can find out, he is trying to digitise the original 16mm films of the programme. I hope he can continue, because I used to love watching it. I have some old VCRs of it.

But anyway, grab a cuppa, glass of wine or a beer and unwind for 24 minutes first watching a cooper at work using his hand tools.

Southern TV programmes, those were the days.

He was quite a character, I wonder where the Museum mentioned is?

Rod
 
Very nice. I could only find one or two others in the series, though, which is a pity. The fishing rod one was a bit long winded for me.
 
I had no ever seen any before coming across them myself on YouTube. Great to watch and reminds me of days fishing with my dad who passed many years ago.

I remember watching this when I was a kid with my Dad, used to love it. My dad was a bit of a savant when it came to practical skills.
 
Time for another cuppa and a watch and learn.

I miss fishing course rivers. Down here, there are hardly any.

I’ve watched a couple recently, I liked the one on Jack comparing fishing rod materials.
