Just one more cast love, and I'll be on me way home

Re: Touch legering
Still got that winning smile too. This photo is the one I used before in my first book and was obviously taken at the same time as the one with my Mum. A good shot of the bait tub of rag worms and, just for Dave, check out those Clarkes!Northern_Nomad wrote: ↑Thu Jan 18, 2018 10:55 pm I actually stated on my post about fishing with Bob on the River Trent that he was seventy odd going on seven, and that first picture captures it all.
Hasn’t changed much height wise either

Trouble is, the fish just don't read the books......

Re: Touch legering
I love the shot of your Mum (in her Sunday best?) smiling, while in reality she is probably terrified that you will a) fall in; b) cast the hook into your eye; c) slice your finger open while chopping half a rag worm for the next cast; or d) actually catch one and get slime all over those nice clean clothes.
Mums are so special.

Re: Touch legering
Looks like I have a plaster on my heel with those sandals. I bet they were bought too large to last 2 summers.
