it was yellow when i first did it and had it on the road. when i was about 18-19 i sprayed it the blue colour to match my old nova which i still had at the time, abit sad thinking about it now, but i liked it at the time. my mate ran in the nova and wrote it off in the end, lol.

The fish was alive when he was holding it? Feck, I'd have dropped it and ran off.

i suppose you like it or you dont... i know loads and loads of people who dont get the whole "car thing"

ask any true carp fisherman, and they will tell u that u do get a true buzz off it when your road goes screeming off, and you hit into it.

night fishing is the best for me, imagine sitting by a beutifull lake out in the middle of no where, where nobody bothers you, sitting up till the early hours having a few (several) beers, with a few of your best mates. and waking up in the middle of summer by the lake side with the fog rising from the lake, truelly can be breath taking. like i say you either like it or you dont! for me i love it.

the astra will be defiantly be getting sold on, only bought it for a profit as much as i love it! will either tidy it up m.o.t it and sell it on. in a few months when i get time to do it.
or if some one makes a decent offer they can take it away as it is.

I can understand the above, but I just don't want to ruin it by lugging 3 hundredweight of stuff along & trying to catch a carp....then letting it go afterwards. I just appreciate nature as it is, I like squirrels but I don't want to snare one for fun. My brother farms sheep & as I work for his contracting business, I sometimes get sent to take the lambs to slaughter, which I get distressed about, even though I love eating meat.

you get it or you dont i suppose bud, lol
theres the technique (sp?) of it that gets a lot of people going, also the wait, almost like hunting lol! also the specise and ve-reation of the fish. it took my mate the best part of 30 minutes to bring that fish in, its a carefull art, one wrong move and youve lost it, gets your heart pounding as you know any second you can loose your catch and thats the whole trip waisted, well not waisted but........
you love it or not i suppose

To be fair .. Golf, you hit the same ball around the same field, Football, you boot it in a net, pick it out and do it again.That never changes:)
