  1. Good morning, havent been on for a while and consequently missed your post. Should have given you a bell yesterday as I went along for the afternoon of the bank just to make the most of a nice afternoon. Whats nice for us isnt always nice for trout though. Lots of anglers up 7lb creek, one guy was working very hard and pulling in a fish an hour. I got lucky on a Zulu at last knockings with a 2lb blue and lost one that showed its self briefly. I'm going to give it a few weeks for the blue bells to take off and the margins to green up and have another go, will PM you prior. Many thanks.
  2. Thats an absolute nightmare mate, had a cracking rod and reel nicked out the back of the landy at a petrol station a few years back, was only in there for 5 minutes, didnt realise til I got home. Hope your insurance pays out alright.
  3. There was a guy at the Detling gamefair doing a cracking rotary with battery for £45. It was whizzing round, seemed to be going twice the speed of my one. How critical is speed? The guy was trading under the name AA decoys if anybodys after a sturdy but cheap set up. He's on ebay as AndyMoss911
  4. I logged on to the Bewl website to see when it opened for the new season only to find its been open for a week or more already. Could have had a crack during the nice weather last week, doh! Any body wet a line there this year yet?
  5. Biddenden special reserve cider. Cant seem to get it now. It was like Pommeau and strong as an Ox, one to sip not bolt! Handsome it was.

    What do you do

    Forgetting about a roll of lug in the fridge usually prompts a colourful response.
  8. In public conveniences before I turn the tap off I fill one cupped hand with water to wash the hand thats turned the tap off. A hand towel is used to grab hold of the minging door handle to exit the toilet. Call me OCD but when I roll a fag and smoke it I dont want to be thinking about the filthy get that came straight out of the traps after a severe lunge out and went straight out pausing only to leave his fecal coliforms all over the door handle.
  9. I cant stop smoking in bed. I think I must be rubbing too hard.
  10. I couldnt leave those nice tides to pass without wetting a line in the end. Dug some ace bait and did night high water up at Dungie. Full moon, Easterly wind, it had blank written all over it. between six rods we had about a dozen whiting the size of a mars bar (regular size at that). Good laugh with a few mates though so I reckon it was worth it.

    Any regrets?

    ...and if you had flattened him he could well have landed funny and you could be doing time fella. Impossible to intervene in a situation like that without some sort of horrible outcome. Some situations have just got bad news written all over them. I've been tormented for the past week in my sleep with what ifs and this and that, Dunno why, happens every so often. Thats why I thought I'd start the thread. Its not like you can go to the doctor is it, you'd never get a renewal.

    Wish I'd checked the tyre pressures for mrs ack-ack when she asked the other day. Had no idea a rim could go that flat after she :'only just drove down the road on it'.

  15. Tight lines chap, our local man Alan Yates travelled up your way last week for a beach session and had a 4 pounder from the beach which he was proudly showing off in the paper. Theres Zip off the Kent beaches.

    Youre a lucky chap then Doc Holiday, I expect that you're very pleased with your self. I thought it would be quite interesting, I won't try and explain it to you because it does require a modicum of a personality which you are clearly lacking. Myself personally on the lighter side am regretting going heavy on the onions last night. The other thing I've been regretting is not speaking to my old fella for 6 years a few years back. I wont waste any more of your time chap, you are clearly a very busy man if you spend your days tossing it off on forums.

    Oh well at least you didn't waste any further time trying to think of something original.

    Estate agent fees

    It depends on what they are going to do for you, where they advertise etc. Last summer i was looking to sell my place and the commission varied between 1.5-3.5%. I managed to negotiate 1.25% with the agent in the village in the end. If your house is in a hot area it will sell its self, in which case negotiate the lowest possible commission, if its in a slow area you will need the benefit of a good agents marketing and advertising and you may have to forego a larger slice of the cake. Good luck.
  21. I was going to put the longlines out for the big tides this weekend as they are banned at the end of March but I really don't think its worth the fuss. I might just head off round the rocks and get some big mussels. Had some belters last month, the sea was like soup and they were inches off the mud. Thought they were going to be a bit gritty but they were spot on, nothing come out when I purged them either.
  22. ...and theres always the veg patch to sort out which overlaps the two nicely. You've always got an excuse to be outdoors.
