Quote " Jim, Kam is recommending Sat and Sun as per my suggestion. " Was he ? I miss-understood. I don't mind spreading it over a couple of days. It's just good to get out and about. Jim

Personally I don't/can't fish the comps because I have to work weekend. Just as an idea knocking round, what about a bigger window say sat and sun but member only allow to fish 1 nominated day? This will give a slightly more flexibility to busy members who can and want to get out. I'm not against it Kam, but it would give a big advantage to anyone able to get out mid-week. Needs to be discussed by people who fish the comps and hope to win. I don't expect to win so not affected so much. It's just good to get out. Jim

Very good. I missed that one. ( I suppose it's my age ) Jim

Yes please Dave, I'll have a couple too. If I'm intending to get out, I may as well have an idea of how much water is about. Jim

Happy Birthday Terry. Are you and your Dad ( Martin ) having a beer or two ? Jim

Very good Steve. I've been to Dungeness and just walking down and back up the slope to the water was bad enough without carrying a Kayak and all your gear. Sounds like you had a good time though. Jim

There's Beds, Heater, Seats, Engine and all sorts of creature comforts. Careful Tony, You'll turn him to the Dark Side ! ! ! Jim

I missed that one. Sorry Duncan. ( bathclaret ) I guess it's my age ! ! ! A very happy birthday for last Wednesday. Hope you had a good one. Jim

Happy Birthday Steve. Jim

I think I got lost at the 3rd line there Rob. You're just SO clever ! And I thought your job was just " Turn it off - wait a minute & turn it back on again " Jim

Ditto. Jim

Happy birthday Mal. Shame about the weather ! Happy birthday Andrew too. Jim

Sounds like you're going BIGGER Graham. Good luck. Jim

Hi Graham, You'll be sorry to see her go. I know you've never done anything on the cheap. She's been loved and looked after. Hope the sale goes well. Jim

Happy Birthday Graham. Jim

Jolly well done Steve. Jim

I was lucky enough to be invited out for the day on Serenity with Tony & Martin. We tried all of the usual spots without success. Tony had a couple of Mackerel on the patch & I had a 2

Ditto.

Well done James. In the daylight too ! ! ! ! Jim

Just had a great afternoon on Tiddler ! Shame it was only in the garden, tinkering and tieing rigs and stuff. Due to comp rules and no crew, I'm gonna accept an invitation from our Chaiman for a trip on Serenity. I thank you very much Tony. I'll try not to catch the winning fish - - - - maybe just second prize for me then. Jim

If I can't get Crew, does anyone have space for an extra crew ? I'm only a skinny little thing ! ! ! Jim

Unwanted ? ? ? ? If anyone has any " unwanted fish " don't waste them. I'll have them. Jim

Try not to oversell yourself so much Jim, you will have a stampede. Well there's no point saying I'm a " spurt ". It's been so long since I've been out, I've forgotten my ( Alun Jones ) lessons. Jim

My Chest infection seems to be O'K' now so I intend fishing the open. I have room for 1 crew if anyone fancies a day out on a little boat with a skipper who has no idea how to catch fish. Jim
