The Traditional Fisherman's Forum

Ok stop booing and shouting and let me finish....

I love reading wherever I am but I have to admit that I have more than a little OCD in terms of book care. I love to keep all of my books and magazines as if they have just rolled off the press. I took a book fishing once and I would never do it again. Dirty smudges on the dust sheet and the remnants of a squashed insect (must have put the book down on it when running to the rods) made me very cross indeed.

Since this incident I have bought a Kindle to take on my travels. The first book I bought (for just a few pence) was the compleat angler. I currently have 33 books stored on it and take them everywhere.

Of course, at home, a proper book has no substitute!

Well Tony, your've just seen what Chris Yates does with his kindle, he makes a good cup of tea.

I know they are horrid things that are not at all traditional but just seem to make sense when out in the countryside. I love books and kindles could never replace them but it is only because I love books that I have one of these things to protect the books I have by keeping them at home safe and sound

Only pulling your leg Tony, I haven't got one but I can see there uses.
