  1. He was fishing from the beach, nursery area only applies to fishing from any vessel.
  2. Cycling along Holes Bay today, there was a chap fishing so I stopped to ask if he had any luck? "Yes", he said, then pointed to a pile of fish in the long grass, there must have been about 8 bass, the largest just over 12" the smallest about 5". I (tactfully) pointed out that they were all undersize, he didn't appear to know there is such a thing as a minimum size for taking, just that they would taste nice. Perhaps we should suggest that Southern Sea Fisheries pay for a couple of signs that show the minimum sizes. Might be worth having one by the sipway at Baiter as well.
  3. I'm obviously not an "Angler", as the definition includes the words 'Catching Fish'.
  4. Derek I haven't received an Email.
  5. Derek I've got a 9ft tender, that I used to use when I was on the trots at Rockley. It certainly fits your criteria of "Nothing new or too posh". It could do with a clean up. I think it's worth
  6. That's good.

    trimtabs

    I haven't got indicators, so can't really comment on them. I don't really need to know where the trim tabs are, I always adjust for best ride/performance.

    Surley it depends on your display settings not whether you've got widescreen or not.

    trimtabs

    Not really, you can end up with the prop trying to lift the stern, rather than parralel to the direction of travel, which is not the most efficient. There's a picture here explaining what I mean Bennetts If you're worried about room to position them ask here I supplied him with a photo and dimensions of the stern.
  17. Hi Glen Nice looking boat, and good luck with the Bream tomorrow.

    Kids

    Why We Love Children. Some new ones among these 1. A nursery school pupil told his teacher he'd found a cat, but it was dead. How do you know that the cat was dead?' she asked her pupil. 'Because I pissed in its ear and it didn't move,' answered the child innocently. 'You did WHAT?' the teacher exclaimed in surprise. 'You know,' explained the boy, 'I leaned over and went 'Pssst' and it didn't move' 2. A small boy is sent to bed by his father. Five minutes later..... 'Da-ad..''What?''I'm thirsty. Can you bring a drink of water?''No, You had your chance. Lights out.'Five minutes later: 'Da-aaaad.....''WHAT?''I'm THIRSTY. Can I have a drink of water??'' I told you NO! If you ask again, I'll have to smack you!!'Five minutes later......'Daaaa-aaaad.....''WHAT!''When you come in to smack me, can you bring a drink of water?' 3. An exasperated mother, whose son was always getting into mischief, finally asked him 'How do you expect to get into Heaven?'The boy thought it over and said, 'Well, I'll run in and out and in and out and keep slamming the door until St. Peter says, 'For Heaven's sake, Dylan, come in or stay out!'' 4. One summer evening during a violent thunderstorm a mother was tucking her son into bed. She was about to turn off the light when he asked with a tremor in his voice, 'Mummy, will you sleep with me tonight?'The mother smiled and gave him a reassuring hug. 'I can't dear,' she said. 'I have to sleep in Daddy's room. 'A long silence was broken at last by his shaky little voice: 'The big sissy.' 5. It was that time, during the Sunday morning service, for the children's sermon. All the children were invited to come forward. One little girl was wearing a particularly pretty dress and, as she sat down, the minister leaned over and said, 'That is a very pretty dress. Is it your Easter Dress?'The little girl replied, directly into the minister's clip-on microphone, 'Yes, and my Mum says it's a bitch to iron.' 6. When I was six months pregnant with my third child, my three year old came into the room when I was just getting ready to get into the shower. She said, 'Mummy, you are getting fat!'I replied, 'Yes, honey, remember Mummy has a baby growing in her tummy. ''I know,' she replied, but what's growing in your bum?' 7. A little boy was doing his math homework. He said to himself, 'Two plus five, that son of a bitch is seven. Three plus six, that son of a bitch is nine....'His mother heard what he was saying and gasped, 'What are you doing?'The little boy answered, 'I'm doing my math homework, Mum. ''And this is how your teacher taught you to do it?' the mother asked 'Yes,' he answered. Infuriated, the mother asked the teacher the next day, 'What are you teaching my son in math?'The teacher replied, 'Right now, we are learning addition. 'The mother asked, 'and are you teaching them to say two plus two, that son of a bitch is four?'After the teacher stopped laughing, she answered, 'What I taught them was, two plus two, THE SUM OF WHICH, is four.' 8. One day the first grade teacher was reading the story of Chicken Little to her class. She came to the part of the story where Chicken Little tried to warn the farmer. She read, '.... and so Chicken Little went up to the farmer and said, 'The sky is falling, the sky is falling!'The teacher paused then asked the class, 'And what do you think that farmer said? 'One little girl raised her hand and said, 'I think he said: 'Holy Shit! A talking chicken! ''The teacher was unable to teach for the next 10 minutes. 9. A certain little girl, when asked her name, would reply, I'm Mr Sugarbrown's daughter. 'Her mother told her this was wrong, she must say, 'I'm Jane Sugarbrown. 'The Vicar spoke to her in Sunday School, and said, 'Aren't you Mr Sugarbrown's daughter? 'She replied, 'I thought I was, but mother says I'm not.' 10. A little girl asked her mother, 'Can I go outside and play with the boys?'Her mother replied, 'No, you can't play with the boys, they're too rough. 'The little girl thought about it for a few moments and asked, If I can find a smooth one, can I play with him?' 11. A little girl goes to the barber shop with her father. She stands next to the barber chair, while her dad gets his hair cut, eating a snack cake. The barber says to her,

    In other words, they intend waiting until it's too late.
  20. Dave Somewhere you were asking about identifying what model of Volvo outdrive you've got. I've got the Seloc Volvo Stern Drive manual, which covers the 250, 270, 275, 280 and 290 models. You are welcome to borrow it if you want.
  21. Drove past the Romany Works today, still some moulds there, close to the fence by the road down to Holton Lee.
  22. The moulds are still there, at least they were a few months ago when they cleared the undergrowth.
  23. Heather Mills has bought a plane and a Phillips Lady Shave for the other leg.
  24. Have you selected the correct Interface Format? Garmin units allow six different formats: 1. GRMN/GRMN 2. None/None 3. RTCM/None 4. RTCM/NMEA 5. NMEA/NMEA 6. None/NMEA Your Garmin probably defaults to Garmin/Garmin. You need to select NMEA/NMEA.
  25. Do you think this salesman likes them?
