A HUGE congratulations to Mr and Mrs Bettle, Tom and Abbie. A lovely party this evening down on the Beaulie River. Wishing you both a life time of happiness!

I think that is the right call. Lets hope it's better in 2 weeks time.

Im going to eggsit this thread now, enough is enough..

Phew! Glad to see the thread had finally eggspired. We must have eggsausted all the puns....

"it's how I got my nickname... Small Flies" "I couldnt get it out in time - then this happend!"

If you want to ressurect my previous format the rules are as follows: The comp runs for a week, Rob then picks a winner - it is then their turn to post a photo and then it runs for another week, they pick a winner and so it is passed on.

Nige, I agree - personally I'm finding it eggs-cruciating... The puns started off as a bit of fun but are now growing eggs-ponentially... OMG I cant stop....

How much is this 'bait'... I cant afford to 'shell' out too much - I hope they arent eggstortionate! This thread certianly has eggceeded all my eggpectations, but to be fair I think we may have eggsausted all the possible egg puns... but there may be a few left! That's all Yolks...

True, I think the thread is about to eggsplode!

Maybe I could poach a few of these to try before the day?...

When does this offer Egg-spire?

dur dum, dur dum, dur dum......

I would drift - more comfotable and covers a greater area - the chum trail stays with you. I'm not willing to kill 2-300 mackeral just for chum. I'll give James and Trevor a call. Still need crew on JV - although might nick one off WM if I cant get anyone

Weather for sat seems to be holding. Need to start firming up crews, and more importantly chum, which could take a bit of sorting? Anyone got any ideas? Plan B is mid channel wrecking.

New bow rail then? Or can it be bent back?

Looking at Sat for this trip guys. So who fancies it? 1) Adam JV - 2 crew places available
