I'm going to have a St Martin's Lane bookshop trawl one of these lunchtimes, see if there's any vintage angling books.

Another 63 boy, I think Farlie's Birthday is another?

No, Gaz - I'm a mere youngster of September '64 :Happy:
I'm September '63.
Maybe we should have a 50 birthday fishing trip for those of us born in 1963? :Sarcasm: :Chuckle:

We will have to sort our own '65 session Skeff. Twas another fine human making year. Had I known I was going to live this long I'd have looked after myself.

I can head bang or pogo - not sure about raving though.

Although I was once called a raving something or other.

I'll start saving up for the fuel.

I got into the Brownies by lying about my age so does the same apply here?

I had an adult ticket at the age of 13 on my local carp pool so I could actually fish it! No-one ever questioned it!

Bailiff caught me out when I did a week's work experience at a boat yard. Only then did he realise I'd pulled the wool over their eyes :Chuckle:

Sorry to be keeping this off thread so back to a great book to have in the collection Mark.

Very much Mazza. I did not realise until I purchased the book that it is basically just a cut down version of Still-Water Angling which contains only the carp material and no picture and drawings. A lovely little book.
