Ioan beaming after win

Ioan Morosanu, pictured right, showed both skill and speed during the latest outing of the Fly Fishers, writes Gordon Wray. The club visited Chiphall Trout Lake near Fareham on a bitterly cold February day. The fish were deep down and it needed an intermediate line to reach them, a fact ignored by some anglers who really struggled to tempt the fish. Not the case for Ioan, who bagged up in smart style early on with a weight of 10lb 8oz. It wasn’t until late afternoon that the fish switched on and most anglers saw some real action from the hard-fighting rainbow trout that Chiphall is known for.

The fish fell to a variety of both lures and imitative patterns with Gary Austin taking the prize for the biggest rainbow at 3lb 2oz. SUNRISE SERVICE & Well done both anglers.MOT CENTRE

More accessibility at EV charging posts

Electric vehicle charging posts need to be more accessible for the one in five people with disabilities, according to the AA. The call is supported by the vast majority of the 17,302 drivers who responded to an AA Yonder survey last year. 73% say charge post spaces should be wheelchair friendly 79% say charge post design should consider users with limited mobility and/or physical disabilities. Currently almost one in 10 new cars in the UK are bought on behalf of disabled people. The Motability Scheme, overseen by the Motability charity, has enabled millions of disabled people to lease a car and enjoy the freedom of mobility. With the ban on the sale of new petrol or diesel cars just eight years away it is essential that charging infrastructure is accessible for all drivers. Motability has been working on this issue for many months now in conjunction with fellow disability charity Designability, the British Standards Institution (BSI) and the Office for Zero Emission Vehicles (OZEV). This work will result in national standards that set a minimum level of accessibility for electric vehicle charging infrastructure.
