Re Des's teeth, all is revealed on the Angling Times thread. DG has posted a telling portrait that clearly gives the answer away!! Sorry Arthur, we don't need you to investigate!

At is becoming the "sun" of the angling press. all they need now is a pair of tits on page three...

Dave

But that Garner bloke is good though, isn't he?

Sorry Peter please forgive my naivety but you ARE being sarcastic aren't you?

 

Personally I quite like Keith he speaks his mind and seems down to earth, but I draw the line at someone who is trying to tell me I should be using fruit flavoured meat... or fish flavoured fruit... or whatever.

Dear All,

 

Frankly, my main concern here is the tendancy to start calling Lord Waller "Pete". I find this all so ungracious whilst bordering on the "familiar". Please, if one must get "matey", his christian name is Peter. Pete merely sounds like some ranch hand in dusty Arizona asked to fetch the branding iron. "Peter" alures to greatness or the commission of a high office. This sort of thing really needs addressing if we are to maintain standards on Anglers Net.

 

Record sized bream? Shocked? Thats just what I would be if I found myself evolving into a bream angler!! Urgh. Nearly as bad as going fishing for stupid pike. Of course the captor was shocked!! Wouldn't you be!!??

 

Des Taylors teeth? They are situated in his seat pants are'nt they??

 

Sorry Des if you are reading this miserable dross. Only kidding.

 

Regards,

 

Lee.

What, me being sarcastic? Never !

 

Actually I quite missed the Doc when he left Anglers Mail, silly move really! Okay, so if you want fruit flavour then use fruit!

 

As for Keith, I have, in the past, but pre that Garner fellow, stated that I thought Keith Arthur was the only worthwhile contributor in AT! Seriously I reckon he has his finger on the pulse of angling, an okay bloke, an opinion worth heeding.

 

To be fair, although I'm not a match angler, I do rate Bob Nudd, nice bloke. Some of Bob's stuff is well worth taking onboard. The AT editor wrote well last week about pike conservation. But in general I think that AT has done more than enough to over popularise piking as it is. Being honest, I reckon it's a bit of a comic in layout, use of big pictures and in much of its content. That's its market nich, good luck to 'em.

 

Re names, I was christened Peter! Kind of stuck after all these years. So long as no one calls me 'late for dinner' I really don't care!

I'm sure Keith Arthur's heart is in the right place, but speaking your mind isn't necessarily a praiseworthy trait. I've heard him make comments to some fairly mild mannered critics of angling that made me cringe. He actually came across as an aggressive, ranting loony and left everybody sympathising with the member of the public who had simply taken the trouble to phone in with quite a reasonable question.
