Congratulations Elton, and pass on my congratulations to your wife for the resilience she's shown over the last ten years. :rolleyes:

 

Having just passed 31yrs ourselves, I think it gets easier after the first 25. ;)

 

John.

Angling is more than just catching fish, if it wasn't it would just be called 'catching'......... John

Congratulations to both of you !

 

Our 25th sort of snuck up on us last year, that one seriously dented my wallet... moral... Don't let your heart write cheques that your bank manager won't like.

Our perception of time as an orderly sequence of regular ticks and tocks has no relevance here in the alternative dimension that is fishing....... C.Yates

Yeah well you must have heard it before..."if you had shot her, you would be out by now" :) :)

 

Congrats Elton and Tania,

"When through the woods and forest glades I wanderAnd hear the birds sing sweetly in the trees;When I look down from lofty mountain grandeur,And hear the brook, and feel the breeze;and see the waves crash on the shore,Then sings my soul..................

It's Tania I feel sorry for. She's got a life sentence with no remission for good behaviour! ;)
