Itinerary

Here on this page, you’ll find the links to my posted itinerary each time I set off on another leg of the Road Trip – should make it easier for anyone who wants to know where I’ll be on any given day when I’m out there doing my thing!

2010…..

Following on from the success of this years Festival we are proud to announce that we will be holding the third annual Festival Of Fishing over the weekend of the 5th and 6th of June at the Peterstone Fishery in South Wales. (20 minutes over the bridge)

Martin Cronin has offered us the lakes free of charge and is in the process of making the whole complex accessible to all.

Despite the change in location we hope that as many of you as possible who have supported the Festival in the past will be able to come along and support us again, we will be keeping he cost of the weekend the same at £20 for the whole weekend.

Could all those interested in attending please contact claire@reels-on-wheels.org to check that we have spaces available as we only have the space at Peterstone to accommodate 60 anglers so hopefully the 2010 festival will be even bigger and better than the last two.

All below was completed….
