Just bought some worms for the Wally Jolly...

I seem to remember that the writer Cliff Parker made reference to 'pike strangling lobworms' and that surely must be one....

Cat stranglers was one of his expressions. I suspect we're in for a session of the Sludgethorpe Waltonians.

Loved his books...

I must have them somewhere. The Compleat Tangler was one, I think. I remember his instructions for camouflage, using 'cow plonk', and on collecting wasp grubs. The next paragraph started, 'When you get out of hospital...'

Worms are remarkable creatures, did anybody catch the lovely Lucy Lapwing on Winterwatch, she talked about them in one of her appearances.
