    Not pretentious at all mate, facts I'd rather sit back and listen to people who really know about subjects I have little knowledge on, one I think that's good manners and 2 it saves you looking like a twat...lol.. I know where I'd seek information on the Middle East on this site if I was after it... It wouldn't be from Grass hopper that's for sure lol

    Funny having this yap with my lad earlier.. He's 20 in a couple of weeks, worked for me for just over a year full time, worked in the Co-op whilst he was at college and bits for me in summer holidays etc...he has saved bloody hard, he is into his finances and has money in stocks and shares etc (most of his yap goes over my head lol)... anyway, through all his own work he's got enough for a deposit on a 2 bed house.. we take no rent off him for living home, and he gets hos grub etc...because imo him saving is what it's about, I'll help as much as possible, but they've got to help themselve

    I've said for a long while now that all i want from money is to buy more time.. I think i could have all the time in the world, if I cashed in here and moved, we have talked about it a lot... I think where we live in the country we are very lucky in many aspects, but it's changing pretty quickly and I've travelled around with work more than enough to know this bubble will eventually burst.. I dont know where we'd go, it was always Ireland years ago through my family ties etc, but I'm.not sure anymore about that.. Most places in central Europe you'd be living mortgage free on wh

    I know exactly what you mean by "volling" but never heard that term mate. I actually saw a salmon jump couple of weeks back in the exe estuary... boat played up so me and Fin had a few casts off exmouth dock wall, I was looking up river and a decent one came our a good few feet... still got me excited lol... Used to sit at Salmon Pool weir, up above countess Weir and watch them leap the weir, I think that weir collapsed a few years back... that was one of the main pools my mate poached back in those days, night time Gill netting.. lol

    Yeah the piss taking is top notch mate, exactly as it should be amongst lads who know how to give it and take it... that's what makes it for me, the fishing is really a secondary thing, the food, laughs, few beers and yapping around a fire is the weekend now... We ate like kings this wewkend, everyone mucks in and provides something... was good to catch up.again mate...even if we did bore you to sleep lol

    Didn't take many pics.. But loved this pic that Bud put onto a banner, our old mate Johnny boy, still sorely missed and talked about at every comp..

    The otter just about escaped the wooden spoon! lol It was won by a lad who has fished it the last 2 years and is a regular guest of the fishery, they book now to coincide with the comp and get involved with the lot.. we charged £10 to fish and £10 for the barbie to boost the pot.. so all the extra people who are turning up contributed as well.. Owain (Wales1234) came 2nd with 33lb, decent net of bream and a cracking crucian.. Carp counted as 1lb this year and it tightened it up quite a lot... fishing wasn't amazing, but everyone caught. 1st 38lb 2nd 33lb 3rd 21lb
  12. NEWKID
    Yeah.. I wonder! lol

    Those trainers were hidden in my truck, again!, the occurring theme it would seem... they'll definitely be back next year, they're way too smart for me! lol

    What a great weekend again! Seriously lads if you haven't been before it really is worth the effort, I probably laugh more on this weekend than the rest of the year, the banter is top notch, the food is great, the fishery is the most accommodating place you could wish for, there is nothing not too like. As all the posts, thanks to everyone who contributed, attended, cooked, cleaned, shifting shit, supplied prizes, chucked money in the pot, made the effort to travel hundreds of miles to be there... the list goes on. A massive thanks to Mary, Narima and Graham, they are friends of
