got a question for the london based members

ive just found out that i will be in finchley for 7-10days starting from tomorrow , is it worth taking a bit of gear with me for the odd evening session ?
 
Stuart, check out Kings Weir or Dobbs Weir, i think they do day tickets on the Lea, big barbel present but not in numbers as I understand it.
 
I have no knowledge of the rivers that way at all, so sorry, no can help. I just thought someone should soften the blow by forewarning you that there are virtually NO pies down here :eek: Sadly, apart from supermarket shoit, there are only perhaps one or two Pie shops left in the whole of London. I know, I know...it's almost impossible to believe, but sadly it's true.

I can tell you of a place that does exquisite caviar, or Foie Gras to die for....but no pies :eek:

You may have to go for a Ruby Murray Stuart :D

Cheers, Dave.
 
Regret the wrong side of the smoke for me Stuart, but if you ever find yourself working on the south side or north Kent give me a shout......;)
 
Dave , I'm wasting away down here with the shandy drinking brigade :)

Bill , lovely offer , thanks , I'll keep that in mind

It was tickets on the bank at kings weir

Lovely piece of water , just the single crayfish for me though
