When we were assembling in the car park at Clattercote on Saturday along comes Nigel Connor with his latest acquisition the Octopus super stool looking for all intents and purposes like a small attache case. I was very impressed firstly by its lightness, it weighs next to nothing, but also by its portability and suitability, in fact I was completely gobsmacked by it.
It is on the same lines as the old canal boxes that were once so popular but no longer made except that it folds up and ideal for me (or anyone else) both on pools and more importantly on the river. So impressed was I that I rang up Fosters this morning and bought one for £117 incl. p&p (normal price £125). What a great piece of kit and you just watch the other box makers start to turn out a similar product.
