Re: 11. Thou Shalt Not Lie About the Size of Your Fish

Great comments Tony. I am not defending lying about fish size, but the self important nature of the recent posts by Toks and others are ridiculous and the comparisons they draw made me laugh! I guess Carp Fishing is more important than I thought?

Premiership is in the hands of sponsors and the almighty F.A,football comes second to this.The most interesting fact I find is that Peter Schmiechel was accused of racially abusing Ian Wright a few years back?Case dropped with a few back handers and a whiskey from "Sir Alex?"And why was the handshake ,that everyones going on about, turned around in this case,with the visiting team being made to walk along the line ?Its always the other way round!but not at Old Trafford!The F.A s corrupt and teams and players have become their pupets!

I wonder what the ozzies will say when they remove the carp and the poorly constructed lake walls continue to deteriorate?

Well said, my friend. Only those who have ever been involved with someone who has an addiction can truly understand the struggle.

I'm proud of you and others who take such care not to injure the poor creatures beyond what your sport allows or requires. Those others, the monsters, make me sick.

I totally agree with your comments about Resistance Tackle - Andy has helped me out more times than I care to think about. Never met the guy but he's #1 in my books.

It's terrible what parents can do to a kid!

Just reading through your blog - sorry to hear about your granny. What a beautiful picture that is of her though.

Also saw the link about Men That They Couldn't Hang. After the broke up they spawned another band called Liberty Cage and the band that I was in at the time supported them at The Hibernian in Selly Oak, B'ham.

Here's my mate's sad story. He asked his Mum for a Liverpool shirt. All his mates at school supported Liverpool. Off she went to buy it, but got a little confused. After all , one red shirt is much like another, isn't it?
Here's your shirt son.
But, but, but, this isn't a Liverpool shirt...
Which is why he now supports Arsenal.
Tragic.

General comment to anyone clicking links: I can't control the automatically generated related links on this site, but the "Holy Carp" link is to a British "news"paper called The S*n. I do not endorse this despicable rag or encourage anyone to visit this site. Justice for the 96.

Great article Tony.

Let's face it. When you were a kid you couldn't afford used comics and half-sucked jawbreakers, but I know you used to nick 'em off your big brother.

Keep up the rants. I'm a big fan.
