Wine and ebay don't mix!!

Being a pernickety bugger I have been through numerous boat reels without ever being happy with any I have used, so I decided to get a Shimano. Lynn did advise that I sell my Penn and Diawa first, but I was having none of it.

Anyway I kept getting outbid on Shimano charter specials on ebay and last night I was in for a 2000LD. After a few wines I decided I wasn't going to win the 2000LD, so on the spur of the moment I took a "buy now" option on a Shimano Triton and gave up on the charter special.

I was a happy bunny and even this morning I was pleased with my purchase. Off we went to Kayos for a Miss Saigon rehearsal. Came home and yes you have guessed it...................I won the charter special bid!!

So I now have 2 Shimanos plus a Diawa and a Penn boat reels!! £100 plus lighter, 3 reels too many and Lynn giving me grief.

Happy Mother's Day everyone!! :(

There's been a few drunken purchases on eBay from me! One of those expensive purchases which you really want, but wouldn't pay for when sober.
 
I think drink fuelled purchases are quite special, rather like Christmas morning when you were younger, :)

the realisation that you vaguely remember something ....ebay..:o


then it slowly reveals itself as the morning progresses....:eek:


yep.....been there..:D
 
Aye, that email notification which says "thank you for your payment of ££££s"

Suddenly it all comes flooding back
 
14 Star Trek models currently residing in my household due to alcohol+ebay, selling them thru Gumtree to some fella in Sunderland hopefully :D
