Andy, the best port (for this trip) comes from Lidl, a bit pricey at £6.50 but tastes great after 7 hours at sea. Martin has to turn his nose up at this as the committee are only allowed to shop in M&S or Selfridges.

Hello Andy, welcome, when we go to Alderney I will have some crayons and tracing paper to go and do some brass rubbing around the island. Much better than wasting time in the pubs like some members do. The competitions and trips are well organised and good fun, hopefully Neil has told you about these. Well worth joining in as much as you can and spreading some of your knowledge as well. Cheers Ian

Hello Terry, I will be going with Alfresco so please can you add me to the bed list.

Hello Charlie, it was still a great day out, just a shame we finished with a flat note. Cheers Ian Ex Battery Sergeant Major Ex Battery Captain Ex Battery Commander

Go on Charlies recommendation of the Fin Nor or similar, I have some rods that I will sort through and find one that you can have. I would rather you had a good reel and line of your own and have a rod from me for a christmas present. if you are not christian you can pi$$ off. Please don't tell Cerrie though as she thinks I haven't got enough gear. Cheers Ian

Try targeting LSD and I bet you get plagued by Cod.

I am not suspicious Mal, but I hope you haven't jinxed us, touch wood. Fingers crossed for a good day.

Many happy returns Terry

Not too many I hope, just half a pint per year.

Many Happy Returns Alfie

Good report Charlie, we flew over on Sept 11th and the weather was great on day 1 but the winds really picked up for the remaining 6 days. We have decided to go late June next year to have longer days and hopefully avoid the winds. Ian

Glad the day went well Nigel.

I am off to Scotland on the Caledonian Canal and Loch Ness, best of luck in the competition everyone that enters.

When Charlie saw the Porbeagle I thought that the Russians were invading " don't panic Capt Mainwairing". Great fun for 2 days, Alan landed a PB Tope, I had a stunning Red Mullet, lots of Tope (with 2 landed at the same time that brought up all 4 rigs). Charlie had the smallest Bream ever landed and I had a Conger that may of only just hatched. I exercised my right to catch and release a lovely Spotted Ray when a stunned Charlie informed me (sternly) that this was a competition and it was around specimen size, oops. Thanks for the 2 days and our beers tasted extra special on Sunday night with a take away from Chinese Whispers

Family site prevents me from posting what I would like to write. Chris, I like the suit but Cerrie wouldn't be able to keep her hands off of me, she loves a big .........

Charlie we may need a bigger galley. Dave, can you be a bit clearer when you say I "need to do a big chicken", nothing was ever proved in that case.

I will be sacrificing a chicken in honour of the weather gods for this weekend, please pray to your chosen God or deity as well. P.S We will have a chicken curry if all goes well Charlie and Dan.

Sorry I am a bit late on this Charlie, hope it was a good day for you and your not too depressed about the chance of a free TV licence being taken away now that you have qualified.

Family site prevents me from explaining Tiddler

I will let Elton John know about this.

Hello Jerry, I am interested and would prefer Brixham if there is a choice.

Hello Nigel and welcome.

Do I need Jacket & Tie?

You deserve us Uncle Charlie.
