    No sadly as i'm the only one in the house who will eat those, so not really worth the effort.

    Blimey, i always thought anglers worldwide were better than that! Back in 1994 we had a family holiday in France, we went canoeing along the river, there was no litter...but at one spot which looked like a good holding pool there were around 40 metres of forked sticks around a foot apart along the bank, never knew worm fishing was so popular in France!!

    At the end of all inclusive holidays in Spain, there is a pile of stuff usually left at a point near the pool, this included, stuff like armbands, books, sliders, fishing nets etc. People are encouraged to re-use them....i saw a Spanish security guard get into his Peugeot 205....it was full to the brim of leftover stuff. At least it was being re-used! Cheers Aled

    It used to be a badge of honour as to how many festivals you and your two man tent, which you bought aged 17 had attended!!

    I do remember my cousin being on strike in 1984, he said if they weren't on the picket line, they were in the field, at the allotment, or on the river bank. He said some people ate rabbit so often they haven't eaten it since the end of the strike. Cheers. Aled

    Interesting hearing what many of you guys talk about regarding working on various sites. As a student i spent my summers labouring on building sites. I always found there was a constant p*ss taking of us college boys, but provided we rolled up our sleeves and were prepared to pitch in and do our bit, we were given a grudging respect we were also young and fit, "he's studying at Uni but he is prepared to do a hard days graft for a days pay", i did not see the back stabbing you guys talk about, there would be an extra 10min stop at 10am, and lunch then...we all got on with it. ....as an aside re

    Yes, really bad experience in my previous role, person below me wanted my job, and would of done anything to get it, this included lies, going out of her way to be awkward, and phone calls to the grant giving organisation! A very toxic atmosphere and a very unpleasant person. Thankfully i got a new job, and i genuinely like my work colleagues, blimey what a difference!

    I would argue that that is the responsible thing to do.....hope you made up for after you ditched the car later that evening?

    Nice one all. Carrots have done badly this year. French Beans have gone well, potatoes and beetroot have been good, Onions i would class as OK, but not wow. Some of tomatoes have at last started to redden, will be eating the first ones this week. Cheers. Aled

    As an aside, a bass has just been caught "up river" on the Tywi in West Wales yesterday!

    Blimey thats interesting, fished some of those Devon rivers mentioned back in the early 90's whilst at Plymouth Poly. Great fishing. So time to hang up the salmon and sea trout flies, and try for Bass on the fly...its great fun and the don't half hit the fly when they take!
